GlobalSCAPE Receives SATAI Technology Superstar Award

Company Poised for Leadership Position in Technology Community
SAN ANTONIO--(Business Wire)--
GlobalSCAPE, Inc. (NYSE Amex: GSB), a leading developer of secure information
exchange solutions, today announced that it has received a Technology Superstar
Award from SATAI, a technology acceleration and commercialization center based
in San Antonio. The annual Technology Superstar Award recognizes companies that
are poised to become leaders in the South Texas technology community.

"GlobalSCAPE is a success story with strong credentials in US and international
IT markets," said Jim Poage, president and CEO of SATAI. "SATAI aims to increase
mutual awareness, business relationships, and sales across our technology
industries. We look forward to working with GlobalSCAPE to advance the
technology community in San Antonio and throughout Texas."

GlobalSCAPE`s leadership team has substantial prior experience and extensive
contacts within the local, state, and national IT communities. President and CEO
Jim Morris opened the San Antonio office of Trident Data Systems (acquired by
General Dynamics) and, as the senior executive, grew the operation to more than
200 employees serving national security and Fortune 100 commercial customers.
Craig Robinson, Chief Operating Officer, was Trident`s commercial president and
later co-founded Secure Network Consulting, Inc. (SNCi) in San Antonio. Through
acquisitions by AXENT Technologies and Symantec Corporation, SNCi provided the
foundation for Symantec`s professional services organization. Other GlobalSCAPE
executives have held leadership positions at Southwest Research Institute and
SecureLogix in San Antonio.

Robinson accepted GlobalSCAPE`s Technology Superstar Award at the SATAI STARs
2009 Technology Innovation Conference held last week at the University of
Incarnate Word. "These are exciting times for GlobalSCAPE," said Robinson. "The
Technology Superstar Award reflects our continued deep ties within the San
Antonio business community as we have grown into an international leader in our
target markets."

The Technology Superstar Award is the fifth industry recognition of GlobalSCAPE
since September. Gartner Group identified GlobalSCAPE as a leader in the Gartner
Magic Quadrant for Managed File Transfer, published on September 18, 2009.
GlobalSCAPE announced earlier this month that it was ranked among the top 50
workplaces in San Antonio for 2009 by the San Antonio Express-News. The full
list and ranking was noted in the Express-News Special Edition Top Workplaces
2009 publication on October 11, 2009. The company also announced that it has
been named to Deloitte`s Technology Fast 500, a ranking that recognizes the
fastest growing technology, media, telecommunications, life sciences, and clean
technology companies in North America. Most recently, the US Army awarded
GlobalSCAPE a Certificate of Networthiness for Enhanced File Transfer Server
6.1.

"We have established tremendous business momentum, as described in our recent
announcements," Robinson added. "The diversity of our recent industry
recognitions validates our continued emphasis on operational excellence. The
Technology Superstar Award and other accomplishments are a credit to our team
members who are so committed to delivering superior solutions and results."
