Industry = Internet & Online

Press Release Summary = HomeConvenience.com Partners with Comodo to Implement the
Identity and Trust Assurance (ITA) Security Solution for its \"Online Family Calendar
and Home Organization\" portal for consumers

Press Release Body = Jersey City, NJ (October 26th, 2006) - Comodo, a global
Certification Authority and leading provider of Identity and Trust Assurance (ITA)
Management solutions, announced today that HomeConvenience.com
(www.homeconvenience.com), a leading online family calendar and overall home
organization service, has selected Comodo to protect, secure and empower their
customers with the highest level of online protection available on the market today.
By deploying Comodo\'s ITA Suite, members will realize the advanced technological
security benefits that many leading financial institutions now utilize for online
banking.

HomeConvenience.com is an online personal organizer that uniquely transfers the
advanced features of online contact management, family calendar, address book, to do
lists, shopping lists, messaging, scheduling, home inventory, and task management
tools into the arena of online household management - enabling its members to easily
and securely coordinate every aspect of their home life with the same precision and
control as a high end business package. In working with Comodo, their web-based
interface provides for completely secure access of data from anywhere in the world
with secure storage of all data in password-protected, 128-bit SSL encrypted
servers.

The company chose Comodo as its security partner because Comodo\'s credentials and
expertise as a Certification Authority uniquely qualify it to deliver new technology
to protect the integrity and privacy of client data. \"HomeConvenience is a forward
thinking organization that is committed to providing the highest level of security
to protect its members\", said Melih Abdulhayoglu, President and CEO of Comodo.
\"Through the implementation of Comodo\'s ITA solutions, HomeConvenience.com has
established itself as a role model for how internet security should be implemented
at a user level.\"

HomeConvenience.com is utilizing the following core elements of Comodo\'s ITA solution.

* Content Verification Certificates (CVC) - protects members from phishing,
pharming, and man-in-the-middle attacks
Comodo\'s unique Content Verification Certificates authenticates web content
(such as a log-in box or graphics) to authenticate site identity. This is the
only digital certificate on the market today that protects against man-in-the
middle attacks as this solution alone delivers non-browser \"green good to go\"
indicator confirming site identity.

With this technology, HomeConvenience.com members can verify the site\'s
identity using Comodo\'s reader VerificationEngineT which they download as
easily as Adobe ReaderT. Moreover, since VerificationEngine now authenticates
the identity of over 200,000 home page logos and content, this solution
delivers added value to HomeConvenience members.

* InstantSSLT High Assurance SSL Certificates
These high assurance SSL certificates provide HomeConvenience.com with
certification and authentication of business identity. Only high assurance SSL
certificates can both authenticate site identity and enable encrypted sessions
- ensuring data passed between customer machines and the application server
cannot be intercepted and stolen by a third party. These high assurance SSL
certificates are a key weapon in defending against phishers and pharmers
because low assurance, non-business vetted SSL certificates do not provide
identity assurance.

* HackerGuardianT - Daily Vulnerability Scanning and Certification Solution
HackerGuardian will scan HomeConvenience web servers to ensure they are free
of known security vulnerabilities that hackers exploit. After the daily scan
confirms site safety, HomeConvenience site will display the certification
seal, called HackerShield TrustLogo, confirming the site\'s safety from
hackers.

* Corner of Trust Logo - Technologically advanced site seal encourages member
trust verification
HomeConvenience.com has also implemented Comodo\'s groundbreaking Corner of
Trust Logo across their entire application. The Trust Logo provides
HomeConvenience.com customers with highly visible real-time, web-site identity
assurance through convenient \"point to verify\" technology.

\"Given public concerns about online fraud, we quickly realized that proving our
security credentials to the world was key to increasing the adoption rate of our
services\" said Robert Krulcik, President and CEO of HomeConvenience.com, \"The suite
of solutions that Comodo supplied to HomeConvenience.com provides bank-level
security yet was fast, easy and cost-effective to implement. Adding this level of
security to the recent endorsement that we\'ve received from America\'s NannyT should
provide our users with an extremely secure environment that will also definitively
meet the needs of today\'s busiest families.\"

30 day free trials of the HomeConvenience service are available through their
website at www.homeconvenience.com
