XELERANCE Takes top Prize in Security at Prestigious FOSE IT Trade Show

OTTAWA, April 7, 2010--      Xelerance Corporation, a small Canadian
company that thinks big, has won the Security Hardware Award at the
prestigious Federal Office Systems Exposition (FOSE) in Washington, D.C.

     Xelerance took the top prize in Security Hardware for its DNSX Secure
Signer, a state-of-the-art appliance for automating the implementation and
management of Domain Name System Security Extensions.

     The 2010 edition of FOSE - one of the world's largest and most
influential annual trade shows for government information technology (IT)
professionals - stressed the need to strengthen "cybersecurity." Running March
23-25, it attracted 65 companies who entered more than 100 products in
competition.

     Security Hardware was a hotly contested category, given the rapid rollout
of DNSSEC implementations designed to protect the Internet from potentially
catastrophic attacks - such as Domain Name System cache poisoning.

     "We have put a lot of effort into developing a solution that brings real
value to organizations who want to go that extra mile in securing their
internet presence," said Sergius Heifa, Xelerance's President. "We are very
proud of this award."

     The DNSX Secure Signer is the world's first and only pure DNSSEC
appliance. It provides a complete pro-active DNSSEC management and monitoring
solution, handling not just the technical signing process but also the
implementation of DNSSEC management and security policies mandated and
recommended by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology.

     A fully tamper-proof DNSSEC solution with Federal Information Processing
Standards (FIPS) 140 Level 3 certification, the DNSX Secure Signer is the
fastest product on the market in terms of key-generation and zone-signing
speed.

     Xelerance Corporation, based in Ottawa, specializes in security
solutions. Its team of software developers and network designers have built
secure IT infrastructure for small enterprises and Fortune 500 companies. Its
expertise is in designing, developing and deploying highly usable systems
based on open protocols and standards-based security.
