WALTHAM, Massachusetts, April 11 /PRNewswire/ --

What:     Claudia Dent, SVP of marketing for Ounce Labs, the industry 
              leader in software risk analysis, will present a session titled 
              'How PCI Changed the Face of Security As We Have Known It' at 
              InfoSecurity Europe 2008 next week. 

              Session Overview:  The regulatory environment to date has been 
              characterized by broad requirements of which "reasonable best 
              efforts" toward security considerations are acceptable. With 
              the advent of PCI, "reasonable" is no longer enough, and PCI 
              sets strict guidelines around what it takes to comply, with 
              particular, groundbreaking focus around application security.

              No longer an optional best practice, PCI mandates that 
              organizations analyze their applications for security 
              vulnerabilities with an eye towards protecting customers' 
              sensitive data. This presentation will discuss practical ways
              in which organizations can leverage the benefits from complying 
              with the PCI application security requirements across their 
              entire organization, and offer an in-depth look at the link 
              between applications and data security.

    Where:    The conference is being held on April 22-24 at the Grand Hall, 
              Olympia in London, UK

    When:     Ms. Dent will present on Thursday, April 24th at 11:20 (local 
              time)

              President, Business Development Rational Division. Prior to
