San Diego, CA, June 22, 2006 --(PR.com)-- Cafésoft announced today that it has integrated Cafésoft's Cams web single sign-on software and web access management solution with VASCO Data Security's (Nasdaq: VDSI) Digipass strong authentication products and VACMAN Controller software. The combined Cafésoft Cams and VASCO Digipass solution enables companies to easily, flexibly and affordably implement web single sign-on with one-time-passwords and digital signature strong authentication provided using integrated VASCO Digipass and VACMAN Controller software.

"We're excited to partner with VASCO to create a packaged strong authentication solution," said Gary Gwin, Cafésoft president and CEO. "Cafésoft and VASCO have similar ease-of-use value propositions making the marriage of the technologies a natural fit. Customers who require web single sign-on and web access management solutions will, for the first time, have a secure, easy and cost-effective way to implement one-time passwords and strong authentication."

Cams makes sites more secure and manageable by centralizing web application security policy decisions and management, rather than implementing security within each web application or server. This centralized approach to web security enables companies to reduce development and administration time, complexity and costs, while improving time-to-market, site security and software life-cycle flexibility. Cams also provides web single sign-on to eliminate the cost, risk and pain associated with multiple user accounts and sign-ons for the same site.

The Cams service oriented architecture deploys into heterogeneous environments with an architecture that scales for high-volume sites. The lightweight, Java-based Cams policy server is easy-to-install and
configure in small to large enterprise environments. Cams offers an industry leading approach to user directory integration with Microsoft Active Directory, LDAP servers, SQL databases and more. Other product features include:

o Web single sign-on to web and J2EE application servers

o Access control based on roles (RBAC), HTTP query parameters, database values, date/time, location and custom rules

o Simplified and centralized security policy administration

o Security event logging, analysis and real-time notification

o Flexible customizations via open APIs

o Cross-platform support including Windows 2000 and 2003, Linux and Solaris

VASCO’s Digipass enables users to generate one-time passwords, host authentication and e-signatures that safeguard access to e-business applications, corporate networks, and allow for more secure transactions. By using Digipass patented technology, companies and institutions can eliminate the weakest link in any security infrastructure: The use of static passwords that are easily stolen, guessed, reused, or shared. A summary of key benefits for the combined solution includes:

o Speeds deployment with a comprehensive, integrated Digipass strong authentication and web single sign-on solution

o Simplifies administration and Digipass distribution process with dynamic user registration and management tools

o Achieves low total cost of ownership throughout the web site security and authorization token lifecycle

o Improves time to market by simplifying web application development and deployment

o Scales performance through load balancing and caching

o Leverages current investments in existing enterprise and web application infrastructures

o Reduces complexity by eliminating proprietary and redundant security systems
