INTEGO RELEASES OS X 10.1 VERSIONS OF ITS POPULAR SOFTWARE
NETBARRIER X AND PERSONAL BACKUP X
Personal Firewall and Backup Now Available for Mac Os X Jaguar Users

London, 24th February 2003 ? Intego, publisher of Internet security solutions today announced the release of NetBarrier X 10.1 and Personal Backup X 10.1 for Mac OS X. NetBarrier X 10.1, the latest version of Intego's personal firewall product, extends firewall, antivandal, filtering and privacy protection to Mac OS X Jaguar users, providing a comprehensive and optimum defence against hackers, vandals and other intrusions. Personal Backup X 10.1 has also been updated and gives users the ability to manually or automatically back up files, synchronise data between two computers or volumes and clones bootable Mac OS X volumes.

Both products have received wide acclaim and are the first on the market to combine ease of use, performance and reliability. Intego has used a unique approach and developed a user-friendly, ergonomic interface that can be adapted to suit both beginners and experts.

Both updates feature optimisation of existing features and offer a new choice of interface: the default Aqua interface or a new brushed metal interface.

NetBarrier X 10.1

NetBarrier X 10.1 is an all-in-one solution for complete personal Internet security incorporating a personal firewall, antivandal protection, Internet privacy control and monitoring capabilities so users can ensure every possible breach of privacy is protected. NetBarrier X 10.1 is the industry's only complete anti-hacker solution offering both pre-defined security rules for mainstream users and easy customisation for power users and network administrators.

綉he success of Jaguar has created a critical need for comprehensive firewall protection among Mac OS X version 10.2 users,said Laurent Marteau, CEO of Intego. NetBarrier X 10.1 provides all the safeguards Jaguar users could want, in an easy-to-use package that makes the most of the Jaguar environment.

Among the product's key benefits are:

•  Personal Firewall? controls all incoming and outgoing TCP/IP traffic and data; includes pre-configured filtering rules for non-technical uses and customisable port and service rules for power users.

•  Antivandal Protection? blocks ping attacks, port scans and other intrusion attempts; detects and logs most common attacks such as Code Red and nimda, and spots wrong passwords.

•  Internet Privacy ?gives users control over cookies, ad banners, and analyses data as it leaves the computer and prevents unauthorized exporting of credit card numbers, passwords, and other sensitive data.. Customisable stop lists and trusted group listings block incoming access from network addresses that have made previous intrusion attempts while granting access to friendly addresses.

•  Monitoring ?includes a network gauge that displays real-time activity in and out of the user's Mac. A customisable Whois function also enables Jaguar users to quickly identify intruders and other individuals attempting to enter their computers.

Personal Backup X 10.1

Personal Backup X 10.1 is fully compatible with Jaguar, the latest version of Mac OS X (10.2). Written specifically for Mac OS X using Apple's new Cocoa development technology, Personal Backup X 10.1 provides an easy-to-use interface and advanced capabilities that simplify the process of protecting data from accidental deletions, hard disk failures and other problems. Backups, synchronisations and clones can be made with a click of the mouse. Alternatively, users can create scripts and define exceptions, select multiple sources, set schedules, and even clone their Mac OS X startup volume to ensure they have bootable backups at all times.

The synchronisation option of Personal Backup X 10.1 makes it possible to update the most recent items between two volumes. This feature is useful for PowerBook and iBook users as well as for managing multiple projects on removable media.

Key features include:

•  Works completely in the background
