GeCAD Software Introduces RAV AntiVirus For File Servers 
Anti-Virus Solutions Provider Adds New Data Security Capabilities for
 IBM eServer zSeriesŪ Linux Servers


White Plains, NY & Bucharest, Romania - September 23, 2002 - GeCAD Software,
a global provider of data security solutions for Linux servers, today
announced RAV AntiVirus for File Servers, the first anti-virus solution to
offer on-access protection for IBM eServer zSeries Linux servers.  RAV
AntiVirus for File Servers allows users to conduct scans of Samba data in
real time and immediately detect and remove Window's viruses from data
stored on Linux servers, a critical function for continued server
consolidation on IBM eServer zSeries.  

"The IBM eServer zSeries provides a tremendous opportunity for reducing
total cost of ownership," said Radu Georgescu, president, GeCAD Software.
"It's our goal to help businesses make the shift to IBM eServer zSeries
Linux servers by providing superior anti-virus technology so that
consolidating doesn't mean sacrificing data security." 

With its unique Linux focus and ability to conduct real-time anti-virus
protection for Samba shares, RAV AntiVirus is the only security solution
designed to protect file and email servers on the IBM eServer zSeries
platform.  In addition to RAV AntiVirus for File Servers, RAV AntiVirus for
MailServers has been available for the zSeries since May and provides
anti-virus protection, spam filtering and surveillance capabilities for
Linux mail servers.  Both products are built on the powerful RAV Engine that
was developed from the ground up by GeCAD Software and is featured in every
RAV AntiVirus product. 

"GeCAD's early commitment to address data security with RAV for zSeries
Linux servers clearly shows our strong belief in this market and its
potential for growth," said Michael Katz, president of RAE Internet,
U.S.-based distributor of RAV AntiVirus solutions. "GeCAD was the first to
take a stance on Linux and users have quickly benefited from our efforts."
