Dubai, UAE, 03 October 2004 - Nixu - leading Finnish provider of information security, business integration and network systems for over fifteen years - introduces their new level of Network Security Management Systems (NSM) and their Lawful Intrusion System (LIS) for Law Enforcement Authorities at their stand within the Dubai Internet City (DIC) Community Zone during GITEX Dubai 2004.

"Nixu is pleased to introduce our latest efforts in providing reliable and advanced services based on Finnish know-how in the Middle East region," says Mr. Oiva Karppinen, Nixu VP Business Development.  Nixu's long term partnership in the region is an advantage and is reflected in Nixu's commitment to satisfaction of their demanding clients and development of local Internet infrastructure.

The improved NSM can better handle the complexity of security technologies in large organizations and can collect and analyze data from heterogeneous network devices, server logs, firewalls and intrusion detection systems.  Nixu's functions also correlate event data in real-time, do automatic security risk assessment, visualize results, and alert and prioritize the risks according to business value.  Larger storage capacity through compression is another important new function to meet the needs of today's companies, particularly for increasing regulatory and audit compliance requirements.

Nixu's solution for Lawful Intrusion for law enforcement authorities handles all IP traffic efficiently in decentralized networks for management of traffic monitoring.  Furthermore, Nixu LIS provides in-depth network security activity forensics for more complex network environments.

Nixu boasts competitive Finnish infrastructure; key customer relationships with companies such as Nokia, Ericsson, and TeliaSonera; and major deals in the Middle East including Saudi Arabian and Syrian Internet infrastructure design and implementation,  key financial, telecom and government customers. Nixu specializes in information security services, business integration products, IP network technology and software products.

Nixu's stand is located within the DIC Community Zone in Concourse 2, between Exhibition Halls 7 and 8, at the Dubai World Trade Centre Complex (DWTC) during GITEX 2004. GITEX will be open from 10am-7pm from 3-7 October.
