M-Tech announces the release of RapidReset by Support.com, embedding P-Synch technology

 Calgary, Canada
June 28, 2001

M-Tech is pleased to announce that Support.com, Inc. (NASDAQ: SPRT), the leading provider of support infrastructure, has released RapidReset, embedding P-Synch technology.
As part of an OEM agreement between Support.com and M-Tech, Support.com has just released RapidReset, a password reset tool powered by M-Tech's P-Synch(TM) Total Password Management. RapidReset will be bundled with the Support.com Resolution Suite, and made available to all Support.com customers immediately.

Support.com conducted extensive assessments of password management tools to find a solution that would complement its Resolution Suite.

RapidReset will enable Support.com customers to quickly and easily resolve password problems via user self-service. This ensures timely user access to crucial I.T. resources, while increasing customer, partner and employee productivity. RapidReset will significantly reduce password-related incidents reported to the IT support center.

M-Tech's CEO, Mr. Gideon Shoham, said "P-Synch was found to be the most advanced password management system with the best benefits to users. customers who use RapidReset will get expanded functionality by purchasing the full P-Synch package -- either directly from M-Tech or through Support.com."

"Customers who have deployed RapidReset will be able to quickly upgrade to the full P-Synch product, and get password synchronization, extended platform support, RSA SecurID token integration and more." said Mr. Shoham. "This will reduce the incidence of password problems by up to 90%."

"A hallmark of our Resolution Suite is its ease of use and deployment. We needed those same qualities in a password management solution. P-Synch not only met those requirements, but also provided the scalability and multi-platform capabilities that our customers demand," stated Bruce Mowery, vice president of marketing at Support.com. "Fully integrated into our software platform, RapidReset powered by P-Synch shortens the distance between a password management problem and a quick solution."
