SSP Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ: SSPX), dba SSP-Litronic, a leading provider of identity and information assurance products and services, continues its role as a leading supplier to the Defense Message System (DMS) program with the demonstration of high assurance message security and delivery technologies at the annual DMS Conference. The SSP-Litronic exhibit will highlight the Forté® smart card, the next evolution in smart card technology, and the Argus® Series of PC Card reader/writers, which provide secure e-mail capability for organizational messaging.

As a flexible and cost-effective alternative to bulky, high priced FORTEZZA PCMCIA cards, the Forté smart card provides a variety of state-of-the-art benefits for the DMS in an ISO 7816 dual I/O form factor. The Forté smart card is a DMS Outlook client solution that is specifically engineered to provide both the DMS algorithm compatibility and the cryptographic functions needed for peer-to-peer communications and messaging. The Forté's innovative design ensures that data requiring protection and authentication is never exposed to the user's PC or the communication link during cryptographic processing. The Forté smart card complements the DMS system and offers significantly greater form flexibility, ease of use, and value when compared to a PCMCIA card.

The Argus Series of PC Card readers/writers offers high assurance and enhanced security for a variety of DMS applications, including access control, secure communications, and electronic signatures. The Argus 2108 CipherServer® is designed to offload cryptographic processing for dramatically increased response times and enhanced functionality of database management servers, firewalls, web servers, web browsers, and e-mail packages. It holds up to eight PC crypto cards and can manage multiple clients. The Argus 3015 Dual Card Reader is a USB device that simultaneously accommodates a DMS FORTEZZA Crypto Card and the Department of Defense Common Access Card (CAC). The Argus 3015 Dual Card Reader is available as either an internal bay mounted unit or an external freestanding device.

SSP-Litronic will host a technical breakout session, focused on the Forté smart card and various client applications including DMS Outlook, during the DMS Conference. The session, in the Reunion A building on Thursday, May 6 from 8:30 a.m.-10 a.m., will overview the benefits of transitioning from traditional PCMCIA cards to smart cards. The SSP-Litronic exhibit will be located at booths 18 and 19, at the Hyatt Regency Dallas, May 3-6. For more information, please visit http://www.ssplitronic.com/.
