ACEC Ace Comm Corp (MM)

ACE*COMM Corporation (NASDAQ: ACEC), a global provider of advanced OSS and value-added services applications, today announced the receipt of an order to upgrade a current, U.S. Army regional customer to NetPlus� 6, the latest version of its Enterprise Operational Support System (EOSS). This latest order, coupled with the U. S. Air Force�s worldwide deployment currently scheduled for mid-2007, will bring the total number of U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) lines managed by ACE*COMM�s NetPlus 6 to more than 1.2 million worldwide. NetPlus 6, which utilizes a totally web based, J2EE architecture simplifying configuration management and system administration, currently manages more than 750,000 DoD lines worldwide. �The easy-to-use browser interface and work flow functionality provide a tremendous advantage to our customers while reducing our administrative costs,� commented a representative for the U. S. Army in Korea. �A key reason for the decision to upgrade to NetPlus 6 was the improved security within the application, which eliminates unsecure protocols no longer approved for DoD networks.� Jim Greenwell, ACE*COMM�s President, added, �This award is significant for ACE*COMM as it validates our decision to move to an open, industry standard web-based architecture, eliminating proprietary frameworks and protocols. The Army�s decision to upgrade was even more significant since its existing NetPlus System monitors and manages multiple switch types at more than 40 U.S. military installations from a single location.� About ACE*COMM ACE*COMM is a global provider of value added services for telecom operators and advanced operations support systems (OSS) solutions for telecom service providers and enterprises.
