One of World's Largest Rental Car Companies to Deploy Aladdin eToken to Meet Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standard Compliance Requirements
-
CHICAGO, July 2, 2007 - Aladdin Knowledge
Systems Ltd.
(NASDAQ: ALDN), the leader in Software DRM, USB-based authentication,
and secure Web gateways, today announced that one of the world's largest
rental car companies will be deploying thousands of Aladdin eToken USB
authentication keys across many of its U.S. facilities next month. The
selection of Aladdin eToken follows a lengthy evaluation process by the
company, directly competing against numerous other solutions to meet Payment
Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standard compliance requirements.

The company will also be deploying Aladdin's industry-leading Token
Management System (TMS) in order to efficiently and easily manage its
rental car company employee credentials, as well as the complete token
life cycle and its associated security applications – all from one
centralized system. Large amounts of time spent managing passwords
affects productivity at a company of its size. Thus, the deployment
of Aladdin eToken and the TMS, as part of their larger PKI implementation,
reduces IT expenses and allows employees of the rental car leader to gain
robust, two-factor authentication using highly-durable, portable and
convenient eToken PRO USB keys. Remote employees will use the eToken PRO
keys to securely access their VPN and logon to important Web applications –
helping to prevent sophisticated thieves from extracting credit and debit
card information from unsecured databases.

"Aladdin continues to see ongoing momentum in eToken growth,
especially among large, global companies concerned with
tightening access to sensitive data and providing overall,
far-reaching user authentication," said Chen Arbel, vice
president of engineering at Aladdin Knowledge Systems. "The
Aladdin eToken deployment by one of world's largest rental
car company's reaffirms eToken's ability to provide
large-scale, reliable and easily-managed authentication
solutions for thousands of employees, as their selection of
eToken centered on Aladdin's superior technology, service and
support. Combined with our unique TMS solution, eToken shines
as an industry leader in innovation and flexibility – standing
as a powerful tool for meeting important PCI Compliance requirements."
