Chen Arbel to discuss the importance of integrating software DRM into the
software product lifecycle to reduce time-to-market, increase sales and reduce
costs

CHICAGO, March 31 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Aladdin Knowledge Systems
(Nasdaq: ALDN), an information security leader specializing in authentication,
software DRM and content security, today announced that Chen Arbel, vice
president of strategic development, will present at Software Business' Sales,

    A security expert with more than 15 years of experience, Arbel has seen a
significant shift with regard to software digital rights management
(DRM) -- it has evolved from simple piracy and IP theft prevention to become a
business-enabling tool that provides software publishers with a competitive
edge, the ability to increase sales, and accelerate business growth.
    In his session, Arbel will highlight the importance of integrating
software DRM into the software product lifecycle to drive sales and reduce
costs. Specifically, software product, licensing, and marketing managers will
learn how completely separating the software build process from business
processes using role-based software DRM techniques will empower them to:
    --  More quickly respond to changing market conditions and customer buying
        preferences while avoiding costly R&D cycles
    --  Seize opportunities to gain competitive advantage
    --  Maximize flexibility in packaging, pricing, and positioning their
        products
    --  Enter new markets and increase penetration into existing markets
    --  Increase organizational efficiencies


    Arbel joined Aladdin in 1997, now serving as vice president of strategic
development for its award-winning software DRM and authentication solutions.
