Trilithic Inc. Acquires Online Security Service


Company name changed to Trilithic Network Services

New ownership to catapult local provider of managed security solutions into global market

COOPER CITY, Fla., July 29 /-- Online Security Service announced today that it has been acquired by Trilithic Inc. for an undisclosed amount and will become an integral part of the company's global operations and telecommunications services to major Broadband markets around the world.

The new ownership by one of the fastest growing private companies in the Midwest catapults the local provider of managed security solution based in Cooper City into the global marketplace. Poised for unprecedented growth, Online Security Service will immediately change its name to Trilithic Network Services -- but remain true to its philosophy of providing a personal touch to connectivity services that have become increasingly impersonal.

"In addition to introducing enormous opportunities for growth, Trilithic is committed to maintaining and leveraging the strengths and assets that led them to acquire us," said Kevin Windle, who co-founded Online Security Service with his brother Gary in 1989. "Our leadership team and professional staff will remain the same -- as will our steadfast commitment to providing our customers with a superior level of personal service, value and reliability."

Kevin Windle will maintain his leadership position within the new ownership structure as Director of Business Development. Gary Windle will act as Director of Operations. The management team anticipates both short and long-term financial, operational and technology benefits to the company and its customers through access to significant capital and global resources. Experts in network security, the company offers a suite of turnkey managed solutions:

o Firewall, VPN
o Continuous Data Protection and Disaster Recovery
o Email threat management including Anti-Virus, Anti-Spam, Anti-Spyware
o Image and Content Control
o Information Security Solutions
o Intrusion Detection and Prevention
o Threat Management

"With the market for managed security services at over $1 billion annually -- and demand on the rise -- there couldn't be a better time for this acquisition," said Terry Bush, president and co-founder of Trilithic Inc. "It provides the opportunity for our team in Cooper City to more rapidly deploy their services to markets around the world and allows Trilithic to play a larger and more integral role in the delivery of high quality, cost effective security solutions."
