CYVEILLANCE AND MARKSMEN STRIKE ALLIANCE FOR COMPLEMENTARY IP SERVICES

Partnership Provides Easy Handoff from eBusiness Intelligence Data to Marksmen’s Investigation Capabilities

Arlington, VA., September 16, 2003 – Cyveillance®, the leading provider of 100% Relevant eBusiness IntelligenceTM, and Marksmen, a leader in IP investigations and recovery, today announced an alliance that joins online identification of IP abuse with investigative follow up for rapid resolution.

“It’s a natural fit,” said Ken Taylor, Marksmen president and chief executive officer, “Cyveillance scours the Internet and identifies the bad guys and we offer complementary answers on how to deal with them. The integration of their technology and our expertise offer trademark gatekeepers a lot of wallop in combating the nefarious and fringe elements that are constantly attacking the world’s best known brands.”

Cyveillance chairman and chief executive officer Panos Anastassiadis stated that “joint customers benefit by expanded insight into online and physical worlds, resulting in rapid resolution and return on investment through the preservation of brand equity.”

One such brand owner working with both Cyveillance and Marksmen already is Nintendo of America Inc., where their famous video game characters and Nintendo GameCube and Game Boy^® Advance video game systems require worldwide protection with a special emphasis on monitoring the Internet. Sayoko Blodgett-Ford, Nintendo Legal Department Intellectual Property Group Manager related that "ensuring the integrity of our brands is particularly critical, considering the fact that our consumers are often children. We seek to avoid improper brand association with objectionable content, and the services of both Cyveillance and Marksmen help us accomplish this objective efficiently and cost-effectively."
