SSH to Address Limitations of Perimeter Security at the 2006 Techno Security Conference

May 26, 2006

SSH Inc CEO to Outline Benefits of an End-to-End Security Enterprise Solution

Helsinki, Finland and Wellesley, Mass. - SSH Communications Security Corp. (HEX:SSH1V), a world-leading provider of enterprise security solutions and end-to-end communications security, and the original developer of the Secure Shell protocol, today announced that George Adams, president and CEO of SSH Communications Security Inc., will be speaking at the 2006 Techno Security Conference. Addressing the limitations of relying solely on perimeter security, Adams’ presentation will take place Tuesday, June 6 at 4:30 p.m. in Myrtle Beach, S.C.

Today, the majority of enterprise security initiatives focus on perimeter security, which traditionally consists of a front line of firewalls and anti-virus software. However, with an increasing number of security breaches occurring within the perimeter by employees and other internal sources, relying only on perimeter security is no longer a viable option.

End-to-end communications security is an approach that overcomes the limitations of perimeter-based enterprise security strategies by protecting critical data communications from the source to the destination. Operating between the applications and the IT infrastructure, an end-to-end communications security solution ensures data integrity and enforcement of policy across the enterprise.

In his presentation, Adams will address the inherent restrictions of existing enterprise security approaches amidst new threats and the increasing regulatory environment, and show how end-to-end security and central manageability can provide unparalleled improvement in security against both internal and external threats.
