MatrikonOPC & Wurldtech Announce Cooperative Agreement To Deliver Achilles Certified OPC Software

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, May 19 (MARKET WIRE) --
Wurldtech Security Technologies, a leading provider of cyber risk and
compliance management solutions for industrial automation industries,
announced today it has formed a strategic cooperative agreement with
Matrikon(TM) (TSX: MTK), the world's leading OPC vendor. The scope of the
alliance is to incorporate Wurldtech's Achilles(TM) Satellite testing
platform and certification program into MatrikonOPC's industry leading
OPC solutions to address the evolving cyber risks facing operators of
real-time industrial automation systems.

By augmenting their existing reliability and security best practices with
Wurldtech's Achilles(TM) Satellite testing technology and certification
methodologies, MatrikonOPC's Achilles Certified OPC servers will offer
operators a greater level of assurance against unintentional threats,
safety failures, and protection against intentional cyber-security events.

"MatrikonOPC is dedicated to providing the most robust security available
for our OPC products. Our goal is to protect our customers from cyber
risk and minimize the downtime of real-time industrial control systems
environments," said Sean Leonard, VP of MatrikonOPC. "We have been very
impressed with Wurldtech's Achilles technology and the wide-spread
adoption of their certification program over the past few years and
believe our new Achilles Certified OPC servers will meet the evolving
demands of industrial automation and control systems customers."

Under the terms of the agreement, Wurldtech's Achilles cyber risk
technology will be used to enhance the reliability and security of
MatrikonOPC's OPC servers during the software development lifecycle.
Wurldtech will develop test suites and a certification standard for
MatrikonOPC's OPC Tunneller and OPC Server for Triconex. With these test
suites, Wurldtech will test the protocols and provide the data required
by MatrikonOPC to enhance the security of these products. Once the
development work is complete, Wurldtech will certify the products as
Achilles Level 1 Certified.

"The world's largest suppliers of critical control systems now know that
they must build security into their products and develop new
comprehensive approaches that integrate the right technology, test
methodologies and best practices specific to industrial cyber risk
management," said Tyler Williams, CEO and President of Wurldtech Security
Technologies, Inc. "We are extremely excited to partner with industry
leader MatrikonOPC and look forward to assisting their OPC development
teams as they integrate our Achilles technology into their software
development lifecycle and adopt the latest security practices, ensuring
their customers install the most reliable infrastructure available in the
marketplace."
