AhnLab Integrates Commtouch Technology for Anti-Spam and Zero-Hour Virus Protection into Its Core Product Line


MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec. 14, 2005--Commtouch® (NASDAQ:CTCH - News), the developer of ground-breaking RPD(TM) technology for real time anti-spam and Zero-Hour(TM) virus protection, announced today that its technology was selected by security service provider AhnLab Inc. Commtouch's technology for anti-spam and Zero-Hour virus protection is now available to all AhnLab customers, including over 14,000 corporations throughout Asia.

AhnLab is one of Asia's leading providers of anti-virus and content security software and services. It has received a Virus Bulletin "100 Percent Award," Anti-Virus Checkmark Level 1 and 2 citations and the Trojan Checkmark. As the ninth-largest anti-virus software company in the world, AhnLab pioneers a comprehensive approach to integrated information technology security. AhnLab represents Asia's dominant force in anti-virus solutions, holding 65 percent of the anti-virus software market share in Korea.

Powerful Value Proposition to AhnLab Users: Unmatched Anti-Spam and Zero-Hour AV Performance

Ike Kim, VP & CTO of AhnLab, commented: "We chose Commtouch as our technology partner for email security in all our markets after ascertaining that the company offers world-leading technologies for both anti-spam and the Zero-Hour virus protection. Our rigorous testing confirmed that Commtouch's Zero-Hour virus protection is superior to any other proactive approach. The company's anti-spam technology -- which relies on outbreak detection rather than on content analysis -- blocks Asian spam better than any other method."

Entrenching Commtouch in the Asian Email Security Market

"We are exceptionally pleased with this agreement, which is an important step in establishing Commtouch as the leading email security technology provider throughout Asia," said Ronni Zehavi, Vice President of International Business Development. "Our success in Asia so far is largely due to our unique network-based approach, which is language independent and globally robust. In Asia as in other areas, Commtouch collaborates closely with key partners -- providing powerful technology solutions that enable our partners to reliably protect their customer base.

"Through our continuing focus on this globally successful OEM business model, we intend to launch additional collaborative agreements with partners in the Asia Pacific region. This agreement, and the ones to follow, should have a positive impact on the financial results of 2006."
