Tectia Launches Flexible Subscription Model for Securing IBM z/OS

HELSINKI, FINLAND and WELLESLEY, Mass. - September 03, 2010

Tectia security solutions for IBM z/OS now available on subscription basis

Tectia,(HEL: TEC1V) the market maker in real-time information security, has
introduced a new pricing policy that makes it possible to subscribe to its
mainframe security solutions.  Starting September 1st, 2010 Tectia security
solutions for IBM z/OS are available with no upfront license fee. 

Tectia security solutions are among the first enterprise security solutions to
fully integrate the SSH protocol and SFTP to the IBM z/OS platform for secure
mainframe access in a single product, providing better security than other
available solutions. 

"This is our immediate response to our customers' needs and the requirements of
the market. It also fulfills a key objective of making it easy for our
customers to do business with us. Many clients want to avoid drawing down on
capital expenditure and prefer to treat these overheads as operational
expenses, thus spreading the cost of information security over many years
rather than committing to upfront payments," said Jouni Leinonen, Tectia COO &
EVP for Customer and Market Operations. 

The Tectia subscription model for IBM z/OS imposes no lower or upper limits on
the value of the subscription. What's more, customers can get subscriptions for
terms of three years or more. This means that they benefit from greater
convenience and flexibility in planning and implementing their mainframe
security.
