    Business Editors

    RYE BROOK, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 10, 2005--Exclusive interviews with Mr. Pat Patterson, Global Enterprise Security Solutions Marketing for Nortel Networks (NYSE: NT) and Mr. Jeffrey T. Kessler, Senior Vice President at Lehman Brothers (NYSE:LEH) are available at www.SecurityStockWatch.com .
    In describing Nortel's approach to security issues, Mr. Patterson, said, "Nortel understands that only a holistic approach to network security can be truly successful. It's not just about securing a box, a system or an application, it's about securing the entire network, end-to-end. Security must be considered up front and designed into the network from the very beginning. A layered security strategy protects the enterprise network at all points of potential attack."
    The entire interview is available at: http://www.securitystockwatch.com/inBoardroomNT.html
    In discussing security industry investment trends, Mr. Kessler said, "We believe that asset and personal identification technologies will become major investment themes over the next five years. It is critical to understand that for years, biometric, video, background screening and materials screening companies attempted to sell either directly, or through dealers into the commercial market -- mostly without much success. Simply put, there was enough conflict already between the security directors and IT personnel at corporations to make the process contentious turf wars.....September 11 changed all that in ways that many investors underestimated."
