GenuOne and Anteon to Provide Intelligent Access Control
Boston, MA - June 13, 2002

GenuOne, a leading provider of product authentication and tracking solutions, has formally introduced its Intelligent Access Control System (IAC) with a pilot program at Logan Airport. Security is a top priority for airports across the country. Logan Airport, the largest transportation hub in New England, is leading the charge incorporating next generation technologies to ensure public safety.

The system is designed to provide Logan Airport with an instant "snapshot" of authorized vendors onsite at any given time, allowing a high level of security without slowing down people or products as they use the facility. Upon successful completion of the pilot program, the parties hope GenuOne's IAC technology will provide Logan Airport with real time authentication and tracking of designated vendors at high speeds and long distances in restricted and semi-restricted areas. The facility is visited by 26 million travelers and 800 million pounds of cargo a year and employs 16,000 people and its security presents a great technical challenge for Massport.

"GenuOne's technology augments our comprehensive security initiatives at Logan Airport," says Thomas J. Kinton, Jr, Director of Aviation for Massport, the independent public authority that manages Logan International Airport.

"GenuOne is pleased to extend it's core competency for authentication and tracking of products in the corporate world to try to help meet the security needs of Logan Airport," said Stephen Polinsky, GenuOne's Co-Founder. "As a technology provider, it is very satisfying to offer our technology and expertise to try to help ensure public safety."

GenuOne has selected Anteon Corporation (NYSE: ANT) as its integration partner, due to their extensive experience with IT integration and installation projects for state and federal clients.

The parties intend to use the pilot period to evaluate IAC's utility for use at Logan Airport. It is hoped the seamless integration of GenuOne technology into the airport infrastructure will lead to high levels of security without compromising the speed and efficiency of New England's largest transportation center.
