Voltage Security Provides Secure Communication Platform for Government JWID 2004 Operation

Information Sharing Between Homeland Security, Homeland Defense Partners and Military Operations to be Secured by Voltage

Palo Alto, CA., --June 4, 2004 – Voltage Security Inc., a leading provider of secure business communication solutions, today announced participation in the Joint Warrior Interoperability Demonstration (JWID) 2004. JWID is an annual event sponsored by the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff that enables U.S. combatant commands and the international community to investigate command and control, communications and computer solutions designed to meet key objectives. Specific to this year’s JWID is the coordination with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and Homeland Defense partners. JWID will take place from June 14-25, 2004 and will be conducted over the Combined Federated Battle Laboratories Network (CFBLNet).

“In a terrorist or military crisis situation it is imperative that the government and military be able to establish secure communications channels quickly, easily and with full-confidence. Voltage solutions have been selected as part of JWID because, with our Identity-Based Encryption (IBE) technology, it is extremely easy to establish secure, content-level communications, among a wide-group of dispersed participants, both wired and wireless. We are confident that Voltage will meet and exceed the rigors of this demonstration, and are thrilled to be part of the challenge of JWID,” said Sathvik Krishnamurthy, president and CEO of Voltage Security, Inc.

"JWID has unlimited potential for changing and improving information sharing, interoperability, and concept validation," said Maj. Gen. Dale Meyerrose, U.S. Northern Command director of architectures and integration. “We will seek to break new ground beyond the normal JWID coalition interoperability area into government interagency information sharing. We want to make JWID 2004 'community property' for every potential partner in military operations and in military support of civil operations."
