Webroot to Offer Online Protection Services to Citi Cards Customers

Offering will include the award-winning Webroot Spy Sweeper program

Laptop Battery BOULDER, CO, November 8, 2004 Webroot Software, Inc., a producer of award-winning privacy, protection and performance software, today announced an agreement with Citi Cards, a member of Citigroup (NYSE:C), to offer a suite of Webroots online protection services directly to Citi cardmembers through www.onlineprotection.citicards.com. Offered collectively as the Webroot Online Protection Suite, online visitors to the Citi Cards website will be able to download the latest tools to protect against spyware, viruses, pop-ups and spam including Spy Sweeper, Webroots award-winning consumer anti-spyware software.
According to the Identity Theft Research Center, over 10 million cases of identity theft have been reported since 2000, with direct costs related to these thefts for consumers totaling nearly $5 billion in 2003 alone. A rising number of these cases can be attributed to online intrusions such as spyware, adware and viruses. Spyware and adware secretly monitor users online activities and communicate them to third parties, such as an online advertiser or in the worst-case scenario, a hacker looking to steal a new identity.

Citi Dividend Platinum Select Credit Card This is a card for anyone who wants cash back rewards, but who plans on paying the card off every month. Customers receive 5% cash back on purchases at grocery stores, drug stores and gas stations, and 1% back for all other purchases. Citi offers a 0% APR on balance transfers for the first twelve months, but the regular APR is higher than the other cards being compared here. The cash back rewards are good, but this is not the card on which to carry a balance.

Thinkpad Identity theft is one of the top concerns for customers when handling their finances online, said David Moll, CEO of Webroot. Citi has led the charge in educating their customers on protection and prevention, recognizing early on the potential risks posed to their customers by spyware and adware. By recommending products like Spy Sweeper and Spam Shredder to customers, Citi is helping its customers find tools to maintain a more secure online environment.

Johnson would then sell the servers to several individuals, who would sometimes place them for sale on eBay.
