Iowa State Penitentiary Selects Stellar Technologies' Stellar Internet GEM(TM) Over SurfControl(R)

The Oldest Maximum Security Penitentiary West of the Mississippi River Chooses Stellar Internet GEM to Manage and Enforce Its Internet Policy

Stellar Technologies, Inc. (OTC BB: SLLR), a leading provider of employee Internet management and data migration solutions, announced today the Iowa State Penitentiary selected Stellar Internet GEM as its Internet management solution of choice. The organization performed an evaluation of SurfControl and Stellar Internet GEM prior to moving forward with Stellar to manage its Web surfing and instant messaging within the penitentiary.

Iowa State Penitentiary is one of two maximum-security prisons in Iowa and is located at the most south-east region, in Fort Madison. The penitentiary currently houses 1,067 inmates, including 131 inmates located at 2 remote facilities. The prison is the oldest maximum-security prison west of the Mississippi River. In total, 8,708 offenders are distributed across Iowa's nine facilities with the Fort Madison location accountable for 11.4% of the state's offenders.

"At our location, we worked with SurfControl for over a year to make their solution work in our environment. Each attempt was unsuccessful. After much wasted time, we contacted Stellar Technologies and their superior customer service and technical support staff gave our organization the immediate assistance we had hoped for all along," states Linda Bruce, System Administrator of the Iowa State Penitentiary. "Not only did Stellar visit our location on several occasions, they made sure Stellar Internet GEM was up and running before they left our location."

Iowa State Penitentiary required filtering, reporting and search capabilities for employee Web surfing and instant messaging within their organization to enforce and monitor its Internet usage policy. Through Stellar Internet GEM, the penitentiary is able to effectively filter content from categorized policies as well as through customized additions to further enhance management of Web surfing and instant messaging by staff members.

Bruce continued, "Because of our network configuration and remote sites, we were unable to simply drop a solution onto our network and generate reports the next day. We needed a company that would walk us through the process from beginning to end. Stellar Technologies spent time with our IT staff to ensure a successful installation of their solution, and the results speak for themselves. We are currently filtering Internet activity with Stellar Internet GEM, and Stellar has been there for us every step of the way from assisting us with hardware decisions, helping with installation and configuration of the product down to running our first management report."

"We are pleased to assist Iowa State Penitentiary with their Internet management needs as well as having the organization implement Stellar Internet GEM to enforce their Internet usage policy. Through detailed attention and dedication to each customer site, we continue to pride ourselves on delivering unmatched customer service and support alongside our innovative solutions including Stellar Internet GEM," states Stellar Technologies VP of Product Management, Eric M. Cole.
