NETASQ Joins Comstor's OneDefense Program and Enters Strategic Partnership Agreement with Westcon Group for Belgium, France and The Netherlands

NETASQ, a manufacturer of unified security solutions and Westcon
Group, Inc., the world's leading specialty distributor of networking,
security, mobility and convergence equipment, announced a strategic
distribution agreement with immediate effect. Under the agreement,
Westcon Group's Comstor division will offer NETASQ's comprehensive
Unified Threat Management (UTM) Solutions as part of its OneDefense
program.

NETASQ's UTM solutions detect vulnerabilities and protect a
company's network against intrusions without requiring any additional
hardware. This can minimize the total cost of ownership by combining a
unique real-time intrusion prevention technology (ASQ), with network
and application firewall features, IPsec and SSL VPN, content
filtering, antivirus, antispam, antispyware, and secure VoIP.

"NETASQ sees Comstor as a high-potential strategic distribution
partner throughout Europe," said Dominique Meurisse, NETASQ's
Executive Vice President. "Combining NETASQ's award-winning products
with Comstor's strong professional services fully addresses the UTM
requirements of both the small-to-medium and large enterprise
customers."

"Security is something you have to get right every time, and it
requires constant evaluation of the best solutions for our customers.
Adding NETASQ to our OneDefense program gives our resellers an
opportunity to capture not only additional margin on an advanced
technology sale, but also helps us deliver simple, proven
functionality that can solve even the most basic security needs that
businesses encounter on a day-to-day basis," said Thomas Schoon, vice
president marketing, Europe, Westcon Group European Operations.

"With NETASQ's broad product range and features, there is
something for everyone," said Steven Masset, founder and managing
director of EasyHost, a European-based reseller. "You configure and
fine tune according to the customer's needs. Through OneDefense,
Comstor helps us position the solution into the appropriate security
context so we can bring the most value to our customers."

Comstor's OneDefense program combines best-of-breed and
best-in-class solutions with the Company's unparalleled expertise in
high-end networking and security. Comstor has established
relationships with a wide range of Cisco-oriented vendors including
eIQnetworks, PowerDsine, SafeBoot, Sony, Trend Micro and many other
companies and is in a position to bring the best solutions together to
match a relevant opportunity. Active since early 2006, OneDefense
provides VARs with the ultimate competitive advantage by giving them a
single resource of knowledge tools, strategies and resources to
succeed in Security solutions.
