Passlogix Tops 10 Million Licenses for v-GO Suite, Increasing Lead in Enterprise Single Sign-on Market



    Passlogix(R), Inc., announced today that license sales for its
    market-leading v-GO(R) Sign-On Platform(TM) have now exceeded 10
    million, up from 6 million one year ago and just 2 million at the end
    of 2005. This surge in license volume reflects growing market demand
    for solutions that simplify the process of providing secure user
    access to enterprise applications as well as the advanced
    capabilities, broad functionality and ongoing expansion of the v-GO
    Sign-On Platform.

    Major new v-GO adoptions in 2007 included customers in the
    healthcare, retail banking, investment management, insurance, federal
    government, state/local government, higher education,
    food/entertainment, retail, energy, aerospace, telecommunications,
    chemical and oil/gas industries around the world.

    Business drivers behind these adoptions included the need to free
    end users from the burden of managing multiple application passwords,
    reduce password-related help desk costs, increase security, centralize
    password storage for easier management and recovery, and comply with
    regulatory mandates designed to protect the integrity of corporate and
    personal data.

    Other developments fueling Passlogix´s growth in 2007 included
    continuing expansion of the company´s global network of channel
    partners; Sun´s successful resale of v-GO technology; rising sales of
    Oracle Enterprise Single Sign-On and Passlogix´s v-GO(R) Single
    Sign-On (SSO) for BMC Software´s CONTROL-SA product, both of which are
    powered by the Passlogix platform under an OEM arrangement; and
    increasing market traction for v-GO Credential Manager, a 2006
    addition to the v-GO suite that centralizes the management of
    disparate strong authentication devices.

    Also in 2007, Passlogix announced v-GO On Demand Edition, the
    first ESSO client that requires no software installation on the user
    machine; unveiled v-GO Shared Accounts Manager, the first ESSO-based
    solution for controlling access to privileged accounts; and expanded a
    long-time strategic partnership with RSA with an agreement that
    includes transitioning RSA Sign-On Manager customers to the v-GO
    platform.

    "Our license base has quintupled in two years and jumped by more
    than 4 million in 2007 alone. We expect that growth to continue as the
    market recognizes the broad strategic value of our expanding product
    line to address fundamental access and identity needs," said Marc
    Boroditsky, CEO and president of Passlogix.

    v-GO SSO (v-GO Single Sign-On(R)), the core application in the
    v-GO platform, automatically and securely signs the user into
    enterprise applications after a single network logon without requiring
    additional identification and authentication processes. It has been
    widely acclaimed in the industry for its rapid wizard-based
    implementation capabilities, low total cost of ownership, scalability
    that supports the largest ESSO implementations in the world, and
    ability to interface with a wide range of backend directories and
    complementary products.

    Six add-on solutions extend v-GO´s single sign-on capabilities to
    any form of strong authentication and to kiosk environments; provide
    the industry-first ability to control shared password access to
    privileged accounts through the ESSO infrastructure; enable user
    credentials to be automatically added to v-GO SSO from the leading
    identity management systems for zero-touch provisioning; permit
    self-service reset of forgotten Windows passwords; and centralize
    management of strong authentication devices in any format and from any
    vendor.

    In December, SC Magazine praised this strategic platform approach
    and other v-GO capabilities in naming Passlogix to its list of
    innovative information security vendors for 2007. It was the second
    major recognition for Passlogix last year, following a ranking as a
    leading ESSO vendor by several leading analyst firms in the industry
