SYGATE TECHNOLOGIES, INC. OFFERS ITS LEADING INTERNET-SHARING SOFTWARE TO ZONE ALARM PRO CUSTOMERS AT A SPECIAL PROMOTIONAL RATE

Fremont, CALIF.¾November 20, 2000 - Sygate® Technologies, Inc. (formerly Sybergen Networks), a leading provider of Internet security and access management solutions for the mobile enterprise generation, today announced that it will offer its leading Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) software, Sygate Home NetworkTM (formerly SyGate® for Home Office) to all Zone Alarm Pro customers at a 20% discount through December 31, 2000, with free upgrades, patches and access to new features for a complete year.

The promotion was developed in response to the release of Zone Alarm Pro, a new personal firewall product that supports Internet connection sharing functionality; and is designed to offer Zone Alarm users' the ability to simply and affordably share a single Internet connection with more computers and users in the highest security mode possible with Sygate.

"Now that Zone Alarm supports ICS (Internet connection sharing), we'd like to offer users Sygate Home Network, the industry-leading and Internet connection sharing software. Now users can maintain security while sharing their secured Internet connections. They can add as many users as they want, and don't need to pay for additional phone lines or ISP services," stated Babak Salimi, director product marketing at Sygate. "This promotional program is one more example of Sygate Technologies' belief that seamless connectivity and network security are inseparable issues. We're offering Zone Alarm and Sygate customers alike the opportunity to share their secure, always-on Internet connection with more computers and users."

Sygate's technology interoperates with Zone Alarm Pro so seamlessly that it allows Zone Alarm and Sygate Home Network to work together in the highest security mode. All other Internet connection sharing solutions will only interoperate with Zone Alarm Pro in a less secure mode.

Sygate Home Network 4.0, the NAT-based Internet connection sharing software, is the world's leading and easiest-to-use Internet connection sharing software, with more than two million users. Sygate Home Network 4.0 connects multiple users and computers using only one dial-up or broadband Internet connection. Sygate Home Network provides a robust and secure Internet access sharing solution for the home, SOHO and small business market. The new 4.0 version features Sygate's patent pending OneNICTM technology, which significantly simplifies the process of sharing cable modem and DSL connections for home and SOHO users. With Sygate's innovative OneNIC technology, Zone Alarm users will not need to install a second network adaptor to share an Internet connection.

Other new features in Sygate Home Network 4.0 include enhanced installation functionality, expanded upgradability, an improved graphic user interface (GUI), PPPoE support (IP Fragment support), compatibility with Sygate Personal FirewallTM 2.1 (formerly Sybergen Secure Desktop) and all upcoming versions of Sygate Personal Firewall. Sygate Home Network is highly configurable with any application and supports all major operating systems, including Windows 2000, Windows Me, and Linux.

Sygate Home Network 4.0 is regularly priced from $47.95 for a three-user license, $83.95 for a six-user license and $143.95 for a ten-user license. Under this special promotion, a three-user license will be $38.35, a six-user license $67.15, and a ten-user license will be $115.15. Sygate Home Network 4.0 is available for purchase through a secure online web server by using VISA, MasterCard and American Express.

In addition to its special offer to Zone Alarm Pro users, Sygate Technologies will also offer a 50% discount on Sygate Home Network to its existing Sygate Personal Firewall (formerly Sybergen Secure DesktopTM) customers through December 31, 2000.
