London – October 24, 2005 – Bluesocket, Inc., (www.bluesocket.com) the leader in open wireless security and management solutions, today announced a record growth quarter in Q3 2005, achieving 23 percent increase in revenue over the previous quarter and nearly doubling over the previous year.

“We continue on our strong growth path with another ground breaking quarter,” said Ralph Calistri, CEO of Bluesocket. “Corporate winning is a team sport and this quarter showed how a team can build momentum in the market with our complete wireless LAN solution available and shipping. We are demonstrating through this execution that we are thriving and the market is aware we are in the game. Our momentum will continue in Q4.”

In the midst of its record sales growth, Bluesocket also successfully delivered on a busy schedule, introducing many new products as part of the company’s strategy to bring trust and simplicity to increasingly complex wireless networks. The company announced general availability of its zero-configuration BlueSecureâ„? Access Point 1500, and the industry’s first centralised RF sensor, the BlueSecure Centralised Intrusion Protection System (IPS).

“We continue to see traction not only from new customers, but also from existing ones,” Calistri continued. “As in the past, our great quarterly results were based in part upon current customers placing additional orders in Q3. Now, with our new products available and our expanded channel strategy, Bluesocket will build on this growth and remain committed to delivering to our customers an end-to-end WLAN solution.”
