St. Bernard Recognized by Deloitte Technology Fast 50 Program for Fourth Consecutive Year

Company Ranked 45th Amongst San Diego's Fastest Growing Technology Companies


SAN DIEGO, CA--(Marketwire - October 16, 2007) - St. Bernard Software, Inc. (OTCBB: SBSW), a global provider of security appliances and on-demand solutions, including secure content management and archiving, has been named to Deloitte's prestigious Technology Fast 50 Program for San Diego for a fourth consecutive year.

The Program recognizes the 50 fastest growing technology, media, telecommunications and life sciences companies in the area by Deloitte & Touche USA LLP, one of the nation's leading professional services organizations. Rankings are based on the percentage revenue growth over five years from 2002-2006. During that period of time, St. Bernard has experienced a 53.7% increase in revenue.

St. Bernard's CEO Vince Rossi credits the company's continued growth over the past five years to focus and execution. "Achieving this recognition for the fourth year in a row illustrates our commitment and focus on innovation and growth," Rossi said. "We continually refine our strategy and have an exciting roadmap in place that will further strengthen our position as a market leader."

"Deloitte's San Diego Technology Fast 50 companies have shown the strength, vision and tenacity to succeed in today's very competitive technology environment," said Theresa Drew, managing partner, San Diego Practice, Deloitte & Touche LLP. "We applaud the successes of St. Bernard and acknowledge it as one of the very few to accomplish such a fast growth rate over the past five years."

To qualify for the Technology Fast 50, companies must have had operating revenues of at least $50,000 in 2002 and $5,000,000 in 2006, be headquartered in North America and be a company that owns proprietary technology or proprietary intellectual property that contributes to a significant portion of the company's operating revenues; or devotes a significant proportion of revenues to the research and development of technology. Using other companies' technology or intellectual property in a unique way does not qualify.

Companies from the 16 regional Technology Fast 50 programs in the United States and Canada are automatically entered in Deloitte's Technology Fast 500 program, which ranks North America's top 500 fastest growing technology, media, telecommunications and life sciences companies.
