Entrust Joins Mobey Forum To Drive Mobile Financial Services: Entrust
Global Wireless Division Continues to Promote More Widespread Use of Wireless

SANTA CLARA, Calif., Mar 6, 2001 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- ENTRUST (NASDAQ:ENTU)
Entrust Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:ENTU), the leading global provider of Trust
Relationship Management(TM) e-business solutions, today announced that it has
joined the Mobey Forum (www.mobeyforum.org), the leading financial
industry-driven forum established to encourage the usage of mobile technology in
financial services.
This prestigious forum enables the leading financial enterprises and mobile
manufacturers to work together to enhance and develop mobile financial services,
such as payment, remote banking and brokerage.
Launched in May 2000, the Mobey Forum is split into four major work
groups--business, technology, marketing and regulations--to create the best
practice models for m-commerce. Together these groups are working to develop a
reference architecture for mobile financial services covering trust and payment.
The forum itself facilitates direct dialogue with industry experts from mobile
manufacturers and financial services companies, and membership companies can
actively participate in issues dealt with in the Forum.
Associate members incorporate hardware and software companies, content providers
and companies active in wireless services and applications, and it is in this
capacity that Entrust Technologies has entered the forum. "We are delighted to
join the Mobey Forum," said Richard Kirk, vice president and general manager of
Entrust Global Wireless Division. "This forum gives us a chance to understand
the exacting demands of the financial services industry for trusted mobile
transactions. In return, we can contribute our technical expertise to the
development of the reference architecture."
Bo Harald, chairman of the Mobey Forum, said, "As we try to promote further
utilization of mobile technology in financial services, it is vital that the
most cutting-edge companies in their fields join us in our work. We are very
happy to welcome Entrust to the Mobey Forum as we work to obtain
interoperability of the technical and security requirements for the mobile
finance industry."
