Outpost24 Jordan signs key customer in the region

KARLSKRONA, Sweden - Jan 7, 2008

The Aqaba Special Economic Zone Authority (ASEZA) is one of the many customers in the region to be using Outpost24's OUTSCAN® service. ASEZA started using the service at the end of December 2007.

Eng. Samer B. Al-Hamarneh, MIS Director of ASEZA was quoted as saying:

"Using Outpost24 gives us a proactive edge in securing our IT assets. OUTSCAN® frees our Security Specialists for remediation of security threats, instead of merely tracking down bugs."

The Aqaba Special Economic Zone Authority (ASEZA) is a private-sector driven development initiative that maximizes private-sector participation in a duty free, tax-advantaged and flexible regulatory operations environment. ASEZA's model is an approach to environmentally sustainable development and governance. ASEZA provides a unique tourist destination on the Red Sea with a duty free shopping oasis accompanied with a high quality of life.

Outpost24 AB, who already has a large number of Middle East accounts, opened the Jordan regional office in September 2007 to facilitate the growing demand. Wajih Ireifej was called on to be the Territory Manager in Jordan. From his Jordan office, Mr. Ireifej oversees sales activities in Jordan, Syria, and Egypt. Mr. Ireifej, who has over 20 years of experience in IT, IT sales, and support, was quoted as saying:

"We believe that our product offering will help IT organizations proactively secure their networks from external threats. With the reliance on IT rapidly growing in these regions, so too will the demand for our products."
