Route1 Unveils MobiKEY Classic 2 (MC2), a Security Solution for Mac OS X Users

Route1 Inc. (TSX VENTURE:ROI), a digital security and identity management
company whose customers include the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD), the
Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the Department of Energy (DoE), the
Department of the Interior (DoI), and the Canadian Government, today introduced
the MobiKEY Classic 2 (MC2), a revolutionary tool for Mac OS X users who require
security when accessing data remotely. 


With this announcement, Route1 has raised the bar for mobile device management
and enterprise security by introducing the world's first SMART device, capable
of running on both Mac OS X and Windows machines and devices. 


"We began using MobiKEY for the high level of security in delivering remote
access. We kept using it because of its simplicity - just plug it in to whatever
machine you're sitting in front of, and you're ready to go. With MC2, we still
have the same level of security and simplicity, and can now truly be used at
nearly any computer immediately and easily," said Anthony Juliano, CTO and
General Partner of Landmark Ventures.


The MC2 is a smartcard embedded device that allows subscribers to remotely
access their office computer, network and other digital resources from anywhere
at any time. The first security tool ever made available for private enterprise
that is configured for Mac OS X (and Windows), the MC2 does not require any
pre-installed software to work on a guest computer or other remote device. 


"MC2 is a true world first, and has the potential to drive Mac adoption in the
business environment," said Tony Busseri, CEO of Route1. "The MC2 is completely
clientless and driverless. Slim, sleek and pocketsize, this is by far the most
reliable, budget-conscious solution that protects both Mac OS X and Windows
users who work remotely from malware, man-in-the-middle attacks, viruses or
other data breaches. More secure than any VPN or simple password protection,
only MobiKEY employs an identity-based access system that lets employees work
from anywhere at any time - without compromising electronic security.


"It's a simple equation; if you use a MobiKEY, the user will never pull or
transfer the data they require onto the remote computer, thereby completely
mitigating any risk of cyber attack or potential security breach. The MC2 is a
breakthrough in security for Mac OS X users, who can now use the same data
protection technology utilized by the U.S. DoD, DHS, and DOE."


True, multi-factor authentication provides an easy-to-use method to authorize
users. The MC2 utilizes a patented communications and service delivery platform
that is based on FIPS 140-2 Level 3 cryptographic modules, and simplifies the
process of meeting stringent regulatory requirements for privacy and security.
Accordingly, the MC2 is the "something you have", while the password, which is
verified against both the smartcard and the communications service delivery
platform, is the "something you know".


If the MC2 is lost or stolen, enterprise networks cannot be compromised as no
data is stored, downloaded or saved on the MobiKEY. 


"The MC2 sets a new standard for secure, remote access; it is unlike other
portable devices, such as encrypted USB memory sticks, tablets or laptops, which
can be used to store sensitive enterprise data and can easily put organizations
at risk. Without exception, the MC2 stands alone as the sole smart product
supporting both Mac OS X and Windows users," added Busseri.
