Magal Expands its Activity Into Cyber Security

Magal Expands its Activity Into Cyber Security

YEHUD, Israel, November 6, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

    Magal Security Systems Ltd. (NASDAQ GMS: MAGS) today announced that it has expanded
its business proposition and will start delivering cyber protection solutions to its
existing and new customers.

    Magal's new solutions will monitor, detect and protect against abnormal network
activity, both landline and wireless, within and close to protected sites. Magal is
teaming with third party technology companies to deliver turnkey cyber security solutions
for critical sites, and will offer an integrated suite of solutions for both the physical
and networked world.

    As a first step, Magal will deliver cyber protection for the actual security network,
which may itself be exposed to cyber attacks. Magal will subsequently provide a full
umbrella for critical sites, covering the core production systems, infrastructure and
information systems.

    Eitan Livneh, President and CEO of Magal S3, commented: "The traditional physical
threats to sensitive sites are now exacerbated by cyber threats, which have the potential
to jeopardize the mission of our customers. Unlike the physical space, deterrence barely
exists in cyberspace, and therefore in this cyber decade, seaports, airports, power
utilities, cities and in fact, any business cannot be left protected with only physical
security."

    Continued Mr. Livneh, "With 42 years of proven security experience, we are now
launching a new paradigm of integrated physical and cyber security, managed through a
unified Security Operation Center (SOC) by Fortis4G - our latest command and control
system. We can now deliver turnkey solutions, based on our partners' products as well as
third party technologies. We will also provide full technical services, including threat
analysis, overall design, implementation and ongoing upgrades."
