Press Release Summary: TrustConnect delivers a flexible, secure approach to surfing
the Internet that lets users create a Virtual Private Network whenever they need it.


Press Release Body: Jersey City, NJ (May 29, 2008) - Comodo, a leading communication
security company, today announced the launch of TrustConnect, a new service that
protects users from hackers who often use public networks to illegally procure
sensitive and private information. With TrustConnect, users can create a virtual
private network to quickly connect to the Internet through a Comodo secure server
and encrypt network traffic before it leaves their computers. This service is highly
flexible and gives users the ability to create secure wireless sessions wherever and
whenever they want.

The use of public networks continues to grow as they offer more convenient access to
the Internet. However, when users go onto public or \"open\" WiFi networks, they often
are not secure and are vulnerable to hackers. Hackers can eavesdrop on a user's
session to illegally capture user names, passwords and other private data. Comodo
TrustConnect provides an additional layer of security by encrypting all data that is
being transported during the wireless session making conversations virtually
impenetrable to hackers.

Comodo TrustConnect offers a number of key features and competitive differentiators
including:

* All data transported during a TrustConnect session, whether on a public or
unsecured session, will be encrypted.
* Users have the flexibility to create a one-time secure session anywhere and
anytime they need it
* Flexible plans give users the ability to purchase the service on a daily,
weekly or monthly plan
* Service plans start at $ 3.99 for a day pass and $49.99 for an annual
subscription

\"We are expanding our offerings to protect people when using the Internet on
unsecured wireless networks,\" explains Melih Abdulhayoglu, CEO and Chief Security
Architect of Comodo. \"The TrustConnect technology provides encryption capabilities
that protect mobile and wireless Internet sessions from being hacked. This offering
is another part of our strategy to create a trusted internet by helping people be
confident that they can use the Internet securely whether at home or on the road.\"
