Oslo, Norway - August 24, 2006 - Norman ASA announced today that Info Security Products Guide, a Silicon Valley Communications publication, and the world’s leading publication on security-related products and technologies has named Norman SandBox Analyzer a winner of the 2006 Tomorrow’s Technology Today Award in the two categories “Virtual Environment Solutions" and “Forensics".

The Norman SandBox Analyzer was selected by the editors of Info Security Products Guide based on technologies that are making the most positive impact on security in today’s highly sophisticated and blended attacks environment.

The analyzer output includes a full API log, a SandBox summary, and an extract of all files that are created or modified by the file analyzed.

“Info Security Products Guide’s recognition of Norman SandBox Analyzer further validates our products as excellence-in-class and ahead of the curve.
