                         THIS MONTH'S HOT STORIES

              NEW NT ANTIVIRUS FOR THE ENTERPRISE

              Cheyenne Software announced a major upgrade of
              its award-winning antivirus software for
              Microsoft Windows NT -- InocuLAN 4 for Windows
              NT.

              InocuLAN 4 delivers a number of advanced
              capabilities including Domain Management,
              Virus Wall, Virus Quarantine, Hands-Free
              Updates, and Internet Protection -- all
              industry firsts.

              InocuLAN 4 for Windows NT is the first
              antivirus product to support Windows NT 4.0
              and is designed for networked customers.
              InocuLAN is tightly integrated with Cheyenne
              AntiVirus clients for Windows NT, Windows 95,
              Windows 3.x, DOS, and Macintosh workstations.

              "Viruses are becoming a visible and pervasive
              threat to corporate intellectual assets," said
              Rob Enderle, Sr. Analyst for Giga Information
              Group. "InocuLAN, by providing network level
              protection is a vast improvement over existing
              tools that are often out of date, are
              difficult to administer across large
              corporations, and generally provide a false
              sense of security."

              NETWORK SECURITY TOOL

              Intrusion Detection Inc. offers the only
              software that can completely analyze the
              integrity of both Windows NT and Novell
              Networks. The Kane Security Analyst (KSA)
              offers LAN administrators, corporate security
              officers and auditors the ability to assess
              password strength, access control, system
              monitoring, data integrity and data account
              restrictions. In addition, KSA offers a
              powerful password cracking analyzer and has an
              extensive list of known NT security
              vulnerabilities in its built-in knowledge
              base.

              Cheyenne and Intrusion Detection are
              partnering to integrate InocuLAN and KSA which
              will give KSA the ability to report on
              antivirus network security.

              FAST VIRUS-FREE BACKUPS

              Because antivirus software is notorious for
              slowing down backups, achieving a fast, virus-
              free backup can be difficult. Antivirus
              software that offers real-time protection will
              check each file as it is written to the backup
              media. This sounds great, but with thousands
              of files to backup, the back-and-forth process
              of the antivirus and backup programs will
              significantly impact server performance and
              dramatically lengthen the time to complete the
              backup.

              Your backup and anti-virus software must be
              designed to work together to achieve the best
              results. Cheyenne's integrated software
              solution ensures that your backups are fast
              and virus-free. For a white paper on Fast
              Virus-Free backups visit:

              THE COST OF VIRUS PROTECTION

              NCSA has developed a comprehensive software
              model for use in calculating the financial
              impact of implementing a wide variety of
              antivirus strategies.

              Corporate users can utilize this model to
              determine the cost-benefit of their decisions;
              consultants will utilize the model to assist
              clients in arriving at proper decisions;
              antivirus product sales teams will use the
              model to help demonstrate the effectiveness of
              choosing their specific product solution.

              The NCSA Virus Cost Analysis Model is
              available immediately for licensing. To obtain
              more information or to purchase this software,

              technical aspects of the model should be
