GERMANY`S FIRSTATTRIBUTE GMBH EXPANDS IDENTITY MANAGEMENT LINEUP WITH PASSLOGIX
V-GO SUITE FOR SINGLE SIGN-ON & RELATED ACCESS

Passlogix, Inc., announced today that German-based IT consulting firm
FirstAttribute GMBH has expanded its portfolio of identity management solutions
with the Passlogix v-GO Access Accelerator Suite, an integrated set of single
sign-on, authentication and provisioning tools that includes the market`s
leading enterprise single sign-on (ESSO) solution. FirstAttribute GMBH
specializes in user lifecycle identity management solutions, migration projects
and related consulting for clients including Global 500 companies. 

The firm selected v-GO to help clients tighten information security, reduce help
desk calls and associated costs, and increase user productivity by automating
password management through single sign-on technology. v-GO will also help
FirstAttribute GMBH`s clients meet a variety of access-related accountability
and compliance challenges such as providing an audit trail of all users who work
with an Admin account. 

"Single sign-on is an integral part of many identity management projects, so it
is imperative for us to have a topnotch ESSO solution to complement our product
portfolio. v-GO was the obvious choice," said Jens Petersen, General Manager of
FirstAttribute GMBH, which has offices in both Germany and Mexico. "It is not
only the gold standard for single sign-on but a toolset for solving other
access, compliance and provisioning readiness problems that our customers face
every day." 

"The rapid expansion of our global partner network with firms like
FirstAttribute GMBH is directly related to the growing demand for single sign-on
technology in the marketplace, and the recognition that v-GO offers that and
much more," said Sean Harris, Passlogix VP of Business Development. "Partners
that do their due diligence choose v-GO because of its strengths in the ESSO
space as well as the value-add of the complete v-GO package." 

The v-GO Access Accelerator Suite is designed to eliminate everyday challenges
in sign-on, authentication and provisioning in order to improve business
productivity, strengthen enterprise security and regulatory compliance
readiness, and streamline identity management deployments. 

v-GO Single Sign-On, the cornerstone of the suite, enables users to access any
Windows, mainframe or Web application with a single Windows logon rather than
remembering, managing and inputting different passwords for each account. v-GO
is also the first platform that can extend single sign-on beyond the enterprise
to remote, mobile and temporary users, including home computers, physicians`
offices that require access to hospital networks, and third-party partners or
contractors. 

Companion v-GO solutions automate user sign-on and sign-off of kiosk sessions;
securely manage shared passwords for administrators and others who must share
account IDs; enable strong authentication to applications, desktops and networks
without expensive custom integration; pre-load user IDs and passwords to the
v-GO repository for easy provisioning; and automate resets of Windows logon
passwords. 

The solution scales to tens of thousands of users, has been widely deployed
around the world, enables wizard-based integration that eliminates the need to
write scripts or connectors even to homegrown or legacy applications, and
installs on existing servers without adding dedicated or proprietary hardware.
These features lower the total cost of ownership and allow organizations to
receive rapid payback on their investment. 

The v-GO Access Accelerator Suite is available immediately to organizations in
Germany and Mexico from FirstAttribute GMBH
(http://www.firstattribute-gmbh.de/).
