'Stop-It' Anti-Virus Technology Provides Revolutionary Approach

For Protecting Computers and Networks

LILBURN, Ga., May 9 (May 9, 2000 13:28:52 EST) -- RVT Technologies,
Inc., a small start- up, has been issued two patents by
United States Patent Office that represent a revolutionary use of
electronics for screening and isolating viruses and malicious code.

Cecelia Slattery, President & CEO, will detail today at a press
conference, the core technology behind the anti-virus and data
isolator components of "Stop-It's" unique security products. Ms.
Slattery knows her "Stop-It"(R) technology represents a
revolutionary and innovative solution for isolating personal computers
and networks from viruses. The technology is an application of
electronics, pre-modem, creating an optical air-gap that regulates
access to computers. "Stop-It's" initial products will contain a
bi-directional optical interface, delivered on a single enhancement
card.

RVT Technologies, Inc. is the first to introduce a hardware delivery
system, which will contain embedded anti-virus libraries and also
encryption components. The company will be licensing its technology,
which will evolve into uses within networks, routers, switches
and eventually in all Internet wireless devices.

This patented technology has been developed in prototypes at the lab of
RVT Technologies in Georgia. In order to produce the
millions of units needed to prevent viruses, Ms. Slattery is seeking a
computer industry/alliance partner to proliferate the technology.;
