ITEM 1.    BUSINESS

We are a leading provider of enterprise gateway security
solutions. We help our customers protect their information technology (IT) infrastructures by providing a comprehensive, best-of-breed and integrated set of security solutions that include software, services, and purpose-built security appliances.
Our products and services are designed to provide customers with uncompromising security at a low cost of ownership.

We are proud to be
the security solutions provider to many of the most mission-critical and sensitive environments in the world, including some of the largest and most sophisticated electronic business operations. Our over 22,000 customers come from virtually all
industries, and include prominent organizations in banking, financial services, telecommunications, healthcare, manufacturing, education, public utilities, and federal, state and local governments. Our delivery network includes direct and channel
sales resources that support our worldwide network of over 2,000 value added resellers (VARs), systems integrators (SIs), Internet service providers (ISPs), and original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) worldwide.

In the constantly changing Internet landscape, enterprises are a constant target of new and evolving threats. In todays online world, it is
imperative that companies are always open for business. We distinguish ourselves by only focusing on providing organizations with state-of-the-art security solutions. Our solutions protect the three primary types of Internet traffic in any
organization: 1) communication traffic, such as email, voice over Internet protocol (VoIP) and instant messaging (IM); 2) data traffic, such as Web browsing and file transfers; and 3) application traffic, such as corporate database applications
accessible over the Internet. These solutions include our Web Gateway, Mail Gateway, and Network Gateway products. In addition, our Identity and Access Management products provide proof-positive verification of user identification and corresponding
access privileges prior to allowing access to the enterprise IT infrastructure. Our solutions are further differentiated by the proactive protection provided by the TrustedSource global reputation system, which provides real-time intelligence
about activity across the Internet.

To address the security risks posed by the bi-directional flow of information on the Internet protocol
(IP), we apply a comprehensive capability across our product lines to specifically protect against threats to both inbound and outbound traffic on the enterprise gateway. This enables us to protect against spam, viruses, malware, data leaks,
non-compliance with regulations and other threats to enterprise security and productivity.

Our solutions take into account the nature of
todays blended attacks that target multiple protocols and applications and are intermittently active over long periods of time. To proactively protect against this, our solutions receive real-time information about malicious activity from our
TrustedSource global reputation system as well as contribute information back to TrustedSource, thus taking advantage of a network of protection.

Some of the largest value added resellers, integrators, and distributors in the enterprise gateway
security industry have built thriving practices on selling, integrating and servicing our products and technologies. Today, many of these solutions have been recognized as leaders in their categories with thousands of organizations depending on them
for protection every day.

We continue to pursue a pure-play strategy focused on innovation and leadership in the fast evolving Internet
security market.

We operate our business within one operating segment called enterprise gateway security. For information regarding our
revenue by geographical area, see Note 15 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. For information regarding the percentage of our revenue contributed by each of our product lines, see Item 7, Managements Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Founded in 1989, we are incorporated in Delaware. Our principal executive
offices are located at 4810 Harwood Road, San Jose, California 95124. Our telephone number at that location is (408) 979-6100. Our home page on the Internet is www.securecomputing.com. Other than the information expressly set
forth in this annual report, the information contained, or referred to, on our website is not part of this annual report.

Industry Background

Widely referred to as Web 2.0, todays Internet has and will continue to evolve as innovators use new Web technologies
to implement new applications, often with security as an afterthought. End-user adoption of Web 2.0 is simply outpacing the implementation of adequate security solutions.

Many corporate applications are now Internet-enabled, therefore corporate intranets and extranets have become critical components of business. Todays business model relies on the Web to provide inbound access
for remote employees, partners, and customers from anywhere in the world. Internal employees also reach beyond the edge of the internal network to communicate and gather information across the Internet. These innovations have brought businesses
great efficiencies and have enabled companies to economically expand their sphere of influence globally. However, with the rich browserbased, bi-directional aspect of Web 2.0 applications, even more risk is introduced into the enterprise.
Communication methods are both inbound and outbound, and therefore, so are the related threats. At the same time that Web 2.0 has become an integral part of any legitimate business, it has also become an integral part of criminal activity.

The enterprise must be protected from malware (malicious software), regulatory compliance must be ensured, data leakage prevented, and
employee productivity must be managed. These security issues exist for all IP-based traffic, whether email, VoIP, IM, Web access, file transfers, or other enterprise applications communicating over IP.

Inbound Threats

Hacking tools, as a
form of sophisticated malware, continue to be developed. Many of these malicious tools are widely available on the Internet and are developed with easy graphical point-and-click interfaces so that even unskilled users can use them to
break into computers and steal information.

One tactic used by these cybercriminals is to leverage their sophisticated knowledge to plant
worms on host machines. These compromised machines, known as zombies, are often used to carry out phishing, spam or other attacks.

In
addition to these zombie networks (botnets), cybercriminals also use sophisticated tools to deploy seemingly innocent content which actually contains hidden Trojan horses with malicious functions. These Trojan horses present a threat to
the organization as they appear harmless and innocuous on the surface and may even take the form of a useful application or an entertaining game. These attacks frequently utilize common productivity tools like Microsoft Office files transmitted
through corporate or personal email that employees access via encrypted Web mail. Once opened by the recipient, the Trojan is released, opening the door for

enterprise data espionage, theft, and the release of additional malware. Attacks are increasingly brief in duration and limited in terms of specific targets,
consisting of malware that is designed to bypass the targeted enterprises signature-based anti-virus protection. Since the attack can end in just a few hours, data can be stolen long before anyone knows an attack has occurred.

Outbound Threats

In addition to
inbound threats, outbound data leakage threats jeopardize critical and sensitive information vital to an enterprises success. Attackers are not always outsiders of the enterprise, but rather they may be a part of the victimized organization.
Data thieves, industrial spies, and cyber-vandals can, and often do, operate within an enterprises own boundaries. Outbound threats are not always the result of an intentional attack by an insider. Sometimes they occur when an employee
unintentionally opens or allows a back door to be opened by downloading a rogue application that has not been approved by IT.

Outbound data leakage is a concern for two reasons: 1) risk of intellectual property loss and 2) compliance with regulatory and/or industry requirements (e.g. Sarbanes-Oxley, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, and the
Graham-Leach Bliley Act,). Many organizations think that filtering their email is sufficient outbound security protection. While doing so is a key factor in a leakage prevention strategy, a multi-protocol approach to data leakage security, where
network security administrators also pay attention to Web protocols as well, is best. Rapid adoption of blogs, wikis, and employee access to personal email (which is sometimes encrypted) via the Web are all potential data leakage points for the
enterprise. As a result, Web (HTTP), encrypted Web (HTTPS), IM, and file transfers are all potential data leakage methodologies as all of these protocols can be used to transfer proprietary information out of the enterprise.

Application-Level Vulnerabilities

In
todays highly complex Internet environment, network attacks have evolved into application-level attacks, and recently, an entirely new class of application-specific threats has arisen that requires far more stringent protection. Protection of
the network is highly important, but by itself, is not sufficient. The network is the foundation for communication, and the conduit over which people connect to the application resources they need; and it is precisely these applications that can
expose an organizations information resources to extreme vulnerability. Our products are designed to proactively address network security issues, whether its employees utilizing the Internet, or remote partners and/or customers accessing the
intranet, Web services, and applications from outside the internal network. Our security measures extend beyond the network level, protecting applications and their resources so organizations can conduct their business, expand their reach, and drive
success with confidence.

From email applications to Web services, File Transfer Protocol (FTP), customer relationship management (CRM) and
sales force automation systems, people connect across networks to applications in order to conduct business every day. Misuse of applications and Web portals can result in the loss of valuable resources and millions of dollars. As the applications
we use have become more sophisticated, so have the attack capabilities that threaten them. Applications contain inherent vulnerabilities, and sophisticated attackers can exploit these vulnerabilities and undermine an organizations ability to
conduct its business. Defensive measures must be even moresophisticated in their ability to protect against application-level threatsand our technology is designed with this in mind.

Along with protecting against known threats, todays security solutions must be able to anticipate unknown threats before they enter the network. A
central part of an organizations business model must include provisions for safeguarding their business connections from being compromised to the highest degree possible.

Partnerships/OEMs

We provide our TrustedSource global reputation system, SmartFilter web database
technology, and other technology capabilities to select partners for inclusion into or delivery with partner products. These partnerships

further extend the footprint of our technologies, augment our direct product offerings, and generate revenue, company, and market awareness for our business.
Partners include, but are not limited to: AT&T, Blue Coat Systems, Checkpoint, Cisco, Computer Associates, F5 Networks, McAfee, and Microsoft.

Market Need and Strategy

More than ever before, organizations realize that they must take responsibility to protect their
own confidential information and that of their customers and partners. Enterprises must know that the data residing on a given network is secure, that parameters are in place for managing access to proprietary information, and that their network
defenses are built to address and anticipate the new and emerging threat environment. Relying on the last generation of network protection, built to defend against last-generation threats, is simply not a sustainable solution for organizations of
any size. Replacing these early solutions with new, adaptive solutions built to fight emerging attacks provides a significant business opportunity for security companies that address these threats across all network ingress and egress points and
protocols.

In January 2007, the Storm worm emerged as a new and potentially very dangerous threat. As it evolved and spread over the
course of the year, it exemplified the new environment that confronts all organizations doing business online. The Storm worm is furtive, resilient, amorphous, and blended across multiple attack vectors, including email and Web. However, while Storm
and other large-scale botnet attacks grabbed many of the headlines, 2007 also marked the emergence of another type of short-lived, yet equally dangerous targeted attack. These attacks seek the valuable customer or business
information assets of a single organization, and have much in common with the Storm worm and other similar threats in that they use increasingly sophisticated technology and social engineering to evade traditional defenses. While organizations
grappled with the potential of these new attacks throughout 2007, they continued to face more regulatory requirements and potential non-compliance penalties, including Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS) deadlines and ongoing
efforts to comply with evolving state, federal and global data protection regulations.

Our strategy is to provide organizations, both at
the enterprise and Small and Medium Business (SMB) levels, with a broad set of solutions that protect against the emerging threats of today, beginning with knowledge about security risks and regulations, accompanied by industry-leading security
products to assist with mitigating these risks, and providing comprehensive security management capabilities. Our goal is to help organizations build confidence in the overall functionality and security of their networks and applications and the
protection of their business-critical information. We accomplish this by providing scalable, manageable, highly available solutions that meet our customers needs today and in the future. Our products provide broad solutions by integrating with
each other and interoperating within current infrastructures, satisfying our customers needs for security solutions that are able to communicate seamlessly with each other. All of our products are designed to provide the strongest network
protection available, along with central manageability, reporting, scalability, and interoperability.

Providing solutions that are
manageable, easy to use and that lead the industry in total cost of ownership are our top objectives for customers of all sizes. Our solutions enable best business practices that help keep the workplace secure, productive, and easily manageable.

Our strategy also encompasses our award-winning service and support organization. We are able to provide our customers with unwavering
service and support due, in part, to the knowledge base and technological expertise of our service and support staff.

Secure Computing Solutions

Our specialized solutions are designed to meet customers needs to balance security and accessibility, and to help them create trusted environments both inside and outside their organizations. Each of our
products provides a complete solution in and of itself, and they integrate with each other for a more comprehensive, unified, and centrally managed solution. Our vision for comprehensive security on the enterprise gateway embodies the following core
design principles:



| |  |  | Appliance-based delivery. All security functionality related to application intelligence and awareness should reside on a contained appliance. These
appliances must be built specifically for the security application they are delivering, with an operating system configured/secured for that specific application and have a regulated set of interfaces to external systems. Essentially, the appliance
must mitigate the many security management problems of deploying software on a standard operating system-server configuration.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Real-time, reputation-driven intelligence. Todays threats emerge quickly, attack, lay dormant and then morph and emerge again. Traditional
signature-based defenses simply cannot keep up with infinite varieties of attack vectors and packages. Network gateways must utilize globally correlated reputation of both connection source and application content in order to protect against attacks
which move faster than signature development and deployment. Using reputation to gate network access is the best defense against targeted and resilient attackers.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Application and content awareness. Todays security attacks have progressed far beyond the network and protocol level to that of the application and
content. The gateway needs a deep knowledge of the underlying communication, an understanding of the context of the communication, and the ability to inspect and interpret the content.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Centralized policy, management and reporting. The security gateway must have the ability to be centrally configured, provisioned and managed. This, along
with consolidated reporting, should provide immediate feedback on the effectiveness of the security appliance while helping reduce the cost of ownership.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Bi-directional protection.The security gateway needs to effectively scrutinize inbound traffic in order to block bad traffic from entering the network,
while simultaneously performing deep inspection of outbound content to protect against leaks of confidential information or intellectual property, and to thwart zombie attacks that take over internal computers for the purpose of
broadcasting spam and other malware.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | User management and education. The security gateway needs to protect all types of sensitive data automatically, with easy-to-manage policies, comprehensive
audit trails, and employee feedback loops.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Performance. As traffic volumes increase exponentially, the gateways must be able to keep up and scale for performance without having to replace them, or
take them off-line for major upgrades.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Resiliency. Security gateways should not introduce points of failure to the mission at hand.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Our solutions for securing critical connections fall into three categories: Enterprise Gateway
Security appliances (Web, Mail and Network Gateways), Identity and Access Management, and Support and Services. Our solutions are differentiated by the protection provided by our TrustedSource global reputation system.

TrustedSource Global Intelligence

Our TrustedSource technology is the most precise and comprehensive Internet host reputation system in the world. TrustedSource characterizes Internet
traffic and makes it understandable and actionable, and also creates a profile of all sender behavior on the Internet. This profile is then used to watch for deviations from expected behavior for any given sender. TrustedSource calculates a
reputation score based on the behavior of the sending host.



7



---

We have an extensive network of more than 7,000 sensors and other collection vehicles in 51 countries,
feeding information into the TrustedSource database. This network tracks data on all observed email traffic and reports back to TrustedSource, giving us a real-time view of Internet communication worldwide.

Originally developed to identify spammers, TrustedSource is able to recognize any host profile anomalies and immediately calculate new
reputation scores for senders and propagate this information to all TrustedSource clients. Analyzing not only email senders but Internet domains as well, this Global Intelligence technology is able to accurately profile millions of entities
connected to the Internet worldwide in real-time, and provide up-to-the minute host behavior analysis. TrustedSource is the first and only reputation system to combine traffic data, whitelists, blacklists and network characteristics with the
unparalleled strength of our global network. We believe the result is the most complete reputation system in the industry with the ability to score every IP address across the Internet.

Over the course of 2007, we incorporated TrustedSource into all of our appliance-based product
lines, including Webwasher®, Sidewinder® and SnapGear. This
enhanced intelligence capability gives our products a demonstrated advantage over other products relying on blacklists, signatures and other traditional defense mechanisms.

Enterprise Gateway Security

Web Gateway Security

When a user is requesting content from a Web 2.0 application, they are implicitly asking for active content to be delivered to, and executed by, their
computer. Furthermore, the same user is required to provide content to the Web 2.0 application, making the security concerns both inbound and outbound in nature.

Our Web Gateway Security solutions protect enterprises from Web 2.0 threats including malware, data leakage, and Internet misuse, while helping to ensure policy enforcement, regulatory compliance, and a productive
application environment. These platforms analyze traffic bi-directionally. Inbound, they isolate and eliminate threats from all types of malware, including zero-day threats, viruses, Trojans, spam, phishing, and the like. They use a deep knowledge
of the underlying protocols and application behavior combined with global intelligence to make security decisions. On the outbound side, in addition to preventing virus propagation and unwanted Web site access, our Web Gateway Security solutions
help customers achieve regulatory compliance and prevent data leakage.

WebwasherWebwasher provides immediate protection for
user-initiated Web traffic against threats such as malware hidden in blended content or hidden in encrypted Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) traffic. Webwasher analyzes the intent of all content entering the networkeven new Web pages before they
have content and before they are categorized. It also protects organizations from outbound threats such as potential loss of confidential information that can leak out on all key Web protocols (i.e., HTTP, HTTPS, and FTP).

Webwasher integrates numerous protections and capabilities that would otherwise require multiple stand-alone products, such as proxy/cache, URL filter,
anti-malware (to guard against zero-day attacks and blended threats), anti-spyware, SSL scanner (to identify and block malicious content hidden in SSL-encrypted traffic), content control filters, and data leakage protections in one single appliance.
For reporting, Content Reporter offers enterprise-class reporting on all Webwasher products and most gateway cache appliances and firewalls.

In June 2007, our company and the Webwasher solution were positioned in the Leaders Quadrant for Secure Web Gateway Magic Quadrant by Gartner, Inc., a premier research and advisory firm.

Additionally, independent tests throughout 2007 confirmed Webwashers excellent malware blocking abilities. Several tests conducted by AV Test Labs
(www.av-test.org), revealed our Webwasher Anti-Malware engine is more successful in blocking malware than all of the leading vendors. In one of their August studies,



8



---

Webwasher achieved 99.86% detection success, correctly identifying the majority of 874,822 threat samples used in the study. Similarly in May, the same lab
tested 29 solutions against over 606,000 different malicious files and evaluated malware detection capabilities. Our Webwasher technology provided the best malware protection, detecting 99.83% of the malicious files.

SmartFilterOur flagship Web filtering application, SmartFilter, is an enterprise Web management and filtering solution currently being used
by thousands of organizations to manage their corporate Web access policies and to protect them from Web security threats. Web security threats include, but are not limited to: phishing attacks, Web sites infected with malware or malicious content,
inappropriate content as defined by each customer, and Web sites with a reputation of high security risk. SmartFilter provides deployment and platform flexibility across more than 20 different deployment options including leading firewalls, security
appliances, proxy servers and Web security systems.

Mail Gateway Security

Recognizing that messaging is now a primary business application in most enterprises, we have implemented a strategy to comprehensively address both
inbound and outbound threats and to help our customers ensure compliance with federally mandated requirements for the protection of sensitive data. Our Mail Gateway Security platforms look at traffic bi-directionally. Inbound, they proactively
isolate and eliminate threats from all types of malwarezero-day threats, viruses, Trojans, spam, phishing, and the like. We use a deep knowledge of the underlying protocols and application behavior combined with real-time global intelligence
to add a new dimension to security-related processing.

On the outbound side, through fingerprinting and data profiling techniques, our
Mail Gateway products are able to determine which data (either in the form of text in a message or text within an attachment) needs to be blocked or flagged due to security or compliance concerns. Our Mail Gateway products can also enforce mandatory
outbound encryption for certain traffic types without requiring the installation of client software on the recipients system. We also prevent virus propagation throughout the messaging infrastructure, which helps ensure maximum availability
and security, effectiveness and global enterprise manageability across multiple messaging protocols including email, IM and Web mail. This combination of easy-to-manage gateway appliances and sophisticated, centralized real-time network intelligence
provides clean, efficient communications, eliminating both inbound and outbound risks.

IronMailIronMail provides a centrally
managed, integrated Mail Gateway Security appliance for enterprises of all types and sizes. In one appliance, IronMail protects enterprise email systems from inbound (spam, viruses, phishing, and hackers) as well as from outbound threats (regulatory
or corporate policy compliance violations or theft/leakage of confidential information or intellectual property).

Secure Computing
EdgeSecure Computing Edge is a hardened appliance positioned at the perimeter of the mail system, applying TrustedSource technology to control email traffic at the network border rather than at the mail server or desktop. Edge relies on
TrustedSource for information about every sender, to allow or reject email before it even reaches critical mail servers.

Network
Gateway Security

Our Enterprise Gateway Security platforms are the aggregation points not only for application-specific
defense-in-depth technologies based on deep knowledge of the underlying protocols and application environment, but also a mechanism for introducing real-time intelligence to security-relevant decisions about the disposition of application-specific
traffic. This incorporates host and domain intelligence as well as bi-directional security services in the areas of compliance, policy, encryption, email, Web, and anti-malware protection. These services leverage centralized policy and management
and are fully integrated with our TrustedSource and SafeWord Identity and Access Management technology.

The idea of the network perimeter has evolved significantly since the advent of the Web. A mobile
workforce, extranets, distributed applications and an environment of highly sophisticated, blended threats has forced enterprises to deploy an array of separate security applications to provide services such as firewall, Virtual Private Network
(VPN), Intrusion-Detection System (IDS)/Intrusion-Prevention System (IPS), anti-virus, anti-spam, and more. The recent movement toward all-in-one appliances has helped mitigate the problem to an extent, especially for small and mid-size companies,
but three major issues still remain: 1) many solutions rely on known malware signatures and fail to offer protection against previously unknown attacks; 2) the Internet is a dynamic environment, with a security profile that changes in real time; and
3) enterprise security applications often fail to adequately share policy and application intelligence between one another. Our Network Gateway Security products address each of these areas of concern, providing the industrys strongest
application firewall protections.

Sidewinder Network Gateway Security
ApplianceOur security appliances consolidate all major Internet security functions into a single system for simplified management, reduced rack space consumption and fewer vendor relationships. Sidewinder® defends the network against all types of Internet-borne malicious threats, both known and unknown. Through its unified threat management (UTM) approach, Sidewinder delivers best-of-breed anti-spyware, anti-virus,
anti-spam and anti-fraud engines, next-generation IPS with ASIC acceleration, Web content filtering, TrustedSource global reputation services, secure Domain Name System (DNS), VPN, SSL filtering, and more.

We continue to differentiate our Firewall/UTM appliance from our competition, setting us apart
with demonstrable zero-hour attack protection from high-profile Internet attacks and another year free of emergency security patches. In the first quarter, we introduced our next-generation Firewall/UTM appliance Sidewinder v7.0, the promised
consolidation of our CyberGuard® Firewall/VPN technologies (TSP and Classic) with our Sidewinder G2 Network Gateway Security appliance.

The advanced technology of Sidewinder 7.0 boasts next generation IPS, a new easy-to-use Graphical User Interface (GUI), and the industrys first
reputation-based filtering servicethe TrustedSource global reputation systemintegrated into a firewall. Sidewinders ease of firewall management also increased with two changes within the product family changes.
SecurityReporter, a security information event management tool and previously a premium add-on product to Sidewinder G2, is now bundled with Sidewinder 7.0 appliance purchases. The software provides detailed, out-of-the-box compliance reports
for auditors, and is based around a Web portal where each administrator or manager can have a personalized, graphical dashboard view of the network traffic. Also, the new CommandCenter central firewall management appliance for Sidewinder 7.0 was
launched. This central management product lets enterprises maximize operational efficiency, simplify policy control and prove regulatory compliance with tools for administration, configuration, monitoring, and management of software updates for
global Sidewinder deployment. Both of these product solutions, along with Sidewinder 7.0s new distinguished features, help Sidewinder to set industry standards for ease of firewall management, and continue to ensure that both medium and large
customers see our network gateway appliances as the products of choice.

Sidewinder
continues its proven security track record, in great part due to our SecureOS® operating system with our patented Type Enforcement® technology and flexible application-level protection mechanisms. Again in 2007, our accomplishments of FIPS 140-2 validation, ICSA certification and continued leadership with Common Criteria EAL4+ certification for
application-level firewalls put us in an unparalleled class of product when competing for U.S. and other government opportunities all around the world. Sidewinder was further recognized by the industry in general with a number of awards this year
including SC Magazine Best Enterprise Firewall, Communications Week Editors Choice, and SC Magazine Best Buy. Furthermore, Gartner, Inc. positioned us in their Firewall Magic Quadrant as one of the top challengers and
on the cusp of entering the Leaders Quadrant.

SnapGearSnapGear security appliances integrate networking, firewall,
intrusion prevention, and remote access capabilities into one small form-factor appliance, filling out the low-cost end of our Network Gateway Security line of products. Designed to provide a complete office-in-a-box networking device for small and



10



---

mid-sized organizations, SnapGear is the only networking device needed for office PCs to be networked with one another, connect securely to the Internet and
corporate WAN, and service all remote access VPN needs, thereby providing small and midsize businesses with enterprise-level networking capabilities.

In 2007, we officially launched new SnapGear OEM program initiatives to further the development of custom appliances for larger organizations such as telecommunication companies and managed service providers. Having
such a flexible program where the SnapGear product is the only known technology with end-to-end management for customers of tailored appliances, uniquely positions these solutions in the security industry. The ability to provide custom software and
hardware, along with complete manufacturing, production and fulfillment, and even certifications and homologation services allows the SnapGear product to be positioned very well against competitive offerings.

Significant strides have been made with the channel line of products for SnapGear as well. The SnapGear firmware received a major upgrade which included
integration with our TrustedSource global reputation system. This integration made SnapGear the first and only small to medium sized security appliance line to leverage what has traditionally been an enterprise level solution not available to
smaller organizations due to cost and complexity. This type of technology provided in a small form factor and at a very affordable price has become one of the largest differentiators for SnapGear in a market full of SMB security offerings. In
addition to TrustedSource, other enhancements included Quality of Service (QoS) capabilities to provide increased reliability for activities such as VoIP phone conversations, and a patent-pending technology called VPN Offloading which
allows SnapGear customers to handle virtually unlimited virtual private network tunnels by aggregating multiple SnapGear appliances. This release also included on-demand connection tracking snapshots allowing administrators to easily identify which
machines are connecting to specific Internet locations and analyze those connections in real time, saving time and effort on the part of the administrator.

Identity and Access Management

As organizations continue to open up their applications, data, and
network resources to an ever-widening range of users, they often fail to account for user identity as a critical component of their access strategy. Our Identity and Access Management (IAM) product suite offers a compelling solution for remote
access security. SafeWord two-factor authentication provides proof-positive user identity for users of SSL and IPSec VPNs, Citrix applications, Webmail, Outlook Web Access and other remote access gateways. SafeWord products positively identify users
through token-based strong authentication to assure that only the right people can make connections to trusted applications and networks.

Remote access to network resources is a requirement for many businesses, but verifying the identity of remote users with strong authentication and a reliable identity management system is vital for security. Additionally, organizations are
increasingly realizing the many vulnerabilities of passwords, and they require strong authentication systems that are easy to install and deploy, simple to manage, and able to grow with their needs.

Our IAM solutions provide safe access to applications, data, and resources through policy-driven security initiatives, as well as positively identifying
users through strong authentication. SafeWord products assure that only the right people can make connections to an organizations applications and resources. SafeWord software and SafeWord tokens are used by thousands of organizations and
millions of end users worldwide every day.

SafeWordSafeWord two-factor authentication acts as the lock and key
mechanism for protecting remote access to the network, particularly for the next-generation of access gateway solutions. SafeWord is our leading strong authentication solution for Microsoft environments using Active Directory, providing
proof-positive user identities via VPNs, Citrix applications, Outlook Web Access, Windows Domain and Terminal Services logins. SafeWord offers powerful management tools with the Enterprise Solution Pack (ESP), an optional add-on package that
provides advanced user management, support for a wide range of authentication form factors, advanced reporting capabilities, and rich access control functionality. With tight integration and simplified management through Active Directory, and with
tokens that generate new passcodes with every user login,



11



---

SafeWord easily and cost-effectively eliminates the password risk. SafeWord is also available as branded versions designed for Citrix, Cisco, Check Point,
and Nortel remote access environments. In addition we released SafeWord 2008, which provides our Windows customers additional product advancements.

SafeWord SecureWireThe SecureWire Access Gateway is a robust, flexible access solution that opens the network to a wealth of remote users. The product set is designed to simplify access to applications, data, and network
resources by providing a secure remote access gateway and access management infrastructure. The combination of SecureWire and SafeWord Strong Authentication offers a compelling one-stop shop for enterprise-wide Identity and Access Management
requirements.

Support and Services

Our services are designed to ensure that our customers make optimal use of our products when controlling access to their networks and applications. We provide a life cycle of support and services, including Solution Implementation and
Solution Support.

Solution ImplementationOur Network Services team offers a full range of rapid-deployment integration
services and training to assist our customers through implementation and integration of our products. Both the configuration process of a security system and the security products themselves, by their nature, may have an impact on several areas
within a customers network. Accordingly, we offer a complete package of product integration assistance to ensure our customers maximize network uptime and maintain productivity during the process. We provide product implementation, product
audit and configuration and product training.

As part of our Network Services training program, we provide extensive product and network
training online through our Web-based classes. In addition, we offer hands-on training both at our training facilities and onsite worldwide for our customers and partners. These services help our customers understand basic and advanced
administration rules and tools that enable partners to configure, integrate, and maintain our products as part of a comprehensive e-business solution.

For certain multiple-element arrangements we are unable to establish vendor specific objective
evidence (VSOE) of fair value for the undelivered bundled elements and are therefore unable to allocate the value of the arrangement between Products and Services Revenue and have reported these revenues and corresponding cost of revenues as
Other.

Marketing

We
market our products to existing customers and prospects using a variety of integrated marketing programs. Our marketing team creates and implements marketing campaigns in each of our major functional market areas: corporate marketing for company and
brand awareness; product marketing for focusing on specific solutions and gateways; and partner marketing to encourage our sales channel to promote our products and services to their customers.

We generate sales leads and brand awareness through customer-focused initiatives in tandem with our channel partners. Additionally, we work closely with
industry analysts such as Gartner and Forrester, as well as with our current customers to understand the trends and needs associated with the enterprise gateway security marketplace. Our research and experience help drive key marketing initiatives
including: direct marketing, Web marketing, advertising, customer seminars, Web seminars, and trade shows. We also work closely with outside vendors to help us pre-qualify leads in order to provide our partners with well qualified prospects.

An active worldwide public relations program ensures that we receive appropriate press coverage for our various programs and
announcements, as well as obtain product reviews and speaking engagements. In addition to our marketing programs, we stimulate interest and demand for our solutions through our corporate Web site, channel partner Web sites and other
industry-specific Web sites, providing white papers, newsletters, and technical notes. Several of our senior technical staff contribute articles to industry periodicals as well as abstracts for presentations they provide to industry specific summits
and events, further extending our ability to educate the industry about e-business security.

Competition

The market for enterprise gateway security is highly competitive. Our products compete on the basis of quality of security, ease of installation and management, scalability, performance, price and flexibility. Current significant
competitors for our existing product lines include: Check Point Software Technologies Ltd.; Cisco Systems, Inc.; Fortinet, Inc.; Juniper Networks, Inc.; EMC Corporation; VASCO Data Security International, Inc.; SonicWall, Inc.; Blue Coat Systems,
Inc.; Symantec Corporation; IBM Internet Security Systems; Tumbleweed Communications Corp.; and Websense, Inc.

Seasonality

As is typical for many large software companies, a part of our business is seasonal. A slight decline in product orders is typical in the first quarter of
our fiscal year when compared to product orders in the fourth quarter of the prior fiscal year. In addition, we generally receive a higher volume of orders in the last month of a quarter. We believe this seasonality primarily reflects customer
spending patterns and budget cycles.

Backlog

Our backlog for products at any point in time is not significant since products are shipped upon receipt of order. We do not believe that our backlog at any particular point in time is indicative of future sales levels. The timing and
volume of customer orders are difficult to forecast because our customers typically require prompt delivery of products and a majority of our sales are booked and shipped in the same quarter. In addition, sales are generally made pursuant to
standard purchase orders that can be rescheduled, reduced, or canceled prior to shipment with little or no penalty.

Manufacturing

Our manufacturing operations consist primarily of light manufacturing of our software and appliance products. We use subcontractors to duplicate software
media and print user documentation and product packaging for our software products. We have two different processes for manufacturing our appliances depending on the product line. We either procure computer servers from major computer manufacturers
and then assemble the final software and hardware products at our facilities in St. Paul, Minnesota or we outsource all services to third party providers. The third party providers complete the hardware build per our configuration specifications,
perform a final test, and then image and drop ship the product directly to our customers. Beginning in 2008 all of our appliances will be assembled at our facilities in St. Paul, Minnesota.

Our SafeWord product line includes a small token, available in various designs. We source these tokens through electronics assembly manufacturers located
in China.

The majority of the materials used in our manufacturing operations are industry-standard parts. Typical materials required are
media and media duplication services, user documentation and other printed materials, product packaging, and computer systems (computer servers, computer peripherals, memory disk drives, and storage devices).

Research and Development

Our internal engineering
staff performs internal development introducing features to our existing products, providing maintenance for our existing products, and delivering new products. For the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005, our research and development
expenses were $44.0 million, $34.1 million, and $16.8 million, respectively.

We intend to keep our products broadly compatible with
industry standards, other information security products and other applications. In addition, we will introduce new products as market demand develops for such products. We design our products so that they support emerging or evolving security and
content standards, such

as Transmission Control Protocol (TCP), Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP), Extensible Markup Language (XML), Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP), the
Public Key Cryptography Standards (PKCS), IPSec, Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP), Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6), SSL, Internet Content Adaptation Protocol (ICAP), and others.

Patents and Proprietary Technology

We rely on
patent, trademark, copyright, and trade secret laws, employee and third party nondisclosure agreements, and other methods to protect our proprietary rights. We currently hold a number of U.S. and foreign patents relating to computer security
software and hardware products. We believe that our patents are broad and fundamental to information security computer products.

Our
success depends, in part, upon our proprietary software and security technology. We also rely on trade secrets and proprietary expertise that we seek to protect, in part, through confidentiality agreements with employees, consultants, and other
parties.

We have used, registered, and/or applied to register certain trademarks and service marks to distinguish genuine Secure Computing
products, technologies and services from those of our competitors in the U.S. and in foreign countries and jurisdictions. We enforce our trademark, service mark and trade name rights in the U.S. and abroad.

Employees

As of December 31, 2007, we had 971
employees. Of these employees, 346 were involved in sales and marketing, 152 in customer support and services, 296 in research and development, 59 in production, 41 in information technology and 77 in administrative, human resources and finance.
None of our employees are represented by a labor union or is subject to a collective bargaining agreement. We believe that we maintain good relations with our employees.

ITEM 1A.    RISK FACTORS

The following important factors, among others, could cause
actual results to differ materially from those indicated by forward-looking statements made in this Annual Report on Form 10-K and presented elsewhere by us from time to time.

We have experienced operating losses in the past and may experience operating losses in the future.    In 2007 we incurred
operating losses of $7.9 million, $6.6 million, $4.9 million, and $3.6 million in the quarters ended March 31, 2007, June 30, 2007, September 30, 2007, and December 31, 2007, respectively. If we are unable to attain
operating profits in the future, our stock price may decline, which could cause investors to lose part or all of their investment in our common stock.

In 2007 we were cash flow positive; however, we have experienced negative cash flow in the past and may experience negative cash flow in the future. If, at that time, sources of financing are not available, we may
not have sufficient cash to satisfy working capital requirements.    We believe that we have sufficient financial resources to satisfy our working capital requirements for at least the next 12 months. We may seek to sell
additional equity or debt securities or obtain an additional credit facility at that time or sooner if our plans change or if we expend cash sooner than currently anticipated. Any additional financing may not be available in amounts or on terms
acceptable to us, if at all. Our failure to obtain financing at that time could result in our insolvency and the loss to investors of their entire investment in our common stock.

If we fail to meet the borrowing requirements under our credit agreement, we may be unable to obtain necessary short-term financing and if we default
on a secured loan, material assets of ours could be subject to forfeiture.    We currently are party to a senior secured credit facility with a syndicate of banks led by Citigroup and UBS Investment Bank which provides us
with a $90.0 million term loan facility, a $20.0 million revolving credit facility and a swingline loan sub-facility. As of December 31, 2007, we had $44.0 million of outstanding indebtedness. Of this indebtedness, approximately $24.0 million
bears interest at rates that fluctuate with changes in certain prevailing interest rates. An increase in interest rates would have a negative impact on our earnings due to an increase in interest expense. As is typical for credit facilities of this
sort, the credit agreement for such credit facility imposes certain restrictions on us, including limitations on additional indebtedness, restricted payments, the incurrence of liens, transactions with affiliates and sales of assets. In addition,
the credit agreement requires us to comply with certain financial covenants, including maintaining leverage and interest coverage ratios and capital expenditure limitations. We cannot be certain that we will be able to comply with such financial
covenants when a loan is needed or continue to comply with such covenants when a loan is outstanding. If we fail to satisfy these covenants or if we are unable to meet the conditions for borrowing under our credit agreement when funds are required,
we could be prevented from meeting our payment obligations, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial conditional and operating results.

Further, our obligations under the credit agreement are secured by substantially all of our material assets, including real and personal property, inventory, accounts, intellectual property and other intangibles. If
we default under our credit agreement for any reason and are unable to cure the default pursuant to the terms of the credit agreement, our lenders could take possession of any and all of our assets in which they hold a security interest, including
intellectual property, and dispose of those assets to the extent necessary to pay off our debts, which could materially harm our business.

Our significant stockholders could have significant influence over us.    Warburg Pincus beneficially owns 100% of the outstanding shares of our Series A Preferred Stock, which shares are convertible into
approximately 6.1 million shares of our common stock or approximately 7.0% of our common stock on a fully diluted basis. The shares of Series A Preferred Stock are convertible into shares of our common stock at the holders option, at a
rate determined by dividing the aggregate liquidation preference of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be converted by $12.75. This liquidation preference, and the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred
Stock, accretes at the rate of 5% per year, compounded semi-annually over time. Subject



17



---

to certain exceptions and limitations, the liquidation preference shall accrete for 54 months from the date of issuance, giving Warburg Pincus approximately
6.7 million shares of our common stock, or 8.2% of our company on a fully accreted and diluted basis. Also, Warburg Pincus holds a warrant to purchase 1.0 million shares of common stock at an initial per share exercise price of $13.85.
Additionally, Warburg Pincus is entitled to nominate a member to our board of directors and the consent of the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock is required for certain corporate actions.

Jay Chaudhry, our former Vice Chairman of the Board and Chief Strategy Officer, beneficially owns 5,026,545 shares of our common stock, or 6% of our
common stock on a fully diluted basis. Richard Scott, a member of our Board of Directors, beneficially owns 3,992,431 shares of our common stock, or 5% of our common stock on a fully diluted basis.

Accordingly, Warburg Pincus, Jay Chaudhry, and Richard Scott could significantly influence the outcome of any corporate transaction or other matter
submitted to the stockholders for approval. The interests of Warburg Pincus, Jay Chaudhry, and Richard Scott may differ from the interests of other stockholders.

Holders of our Series A Preferred Stock have rights that are different and senior to those of our common stock.    Holders of our Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to receive benefits
not available to holders of our common stock. These benefits include, but are not limited to, the following:



| |  |  | beginning July 2010, shares of Series A Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive semi-annual dividends equal to 5.0% of the Series A Preferred Stock liquidation
preference per year, which dividend may be paid in cash or added to the Series A Preferred Stock liquidation preference;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | each share of Series A Preferred Stock has an initial liquidation preference of $100 and the liquidation preference accretes daily at an annual rate of 5.0%,
compounded semi-annually;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | upon a change of control of our company, Warburg Pincus may elect to (i) convert the shares of Series A Preferred Stock into shares of common stock and receive
the consideration due to the holders of common stock upon conversion, or (ii) cause us to redeem the Series A Preferred Stock for cash at the liquidation preference then in effect;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | if a change of control occurs within five years of the issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock, the liquidation preference shall be an amount equal to the
liquidation preference then in effect plus a premium of (i) 15% if the change of control occurs prior to the first anniversary of the issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock, (ii) 10% if the change of control occurs after the first
anniversary of the issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock but prior to the second anniversary of the issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock, (iii) 5% if the change of control occurs after the second anniversary of the issuance of the Series
A Preferred Stock but prior to the fourth anniversary of the issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock or (iv) 1% if the change of control occurs after the fourth anniversary of the issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock but prior to the fifth
anniversary of the issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | holders of Series A Preferred Stock have rights to acquire additional shares of our capital stock or rights to purchase property in the event of certain grants,
issuances or sales;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the conversion price of the Series A Preferred Stock, which initially was $13.51 per share, is subject to customary broad-based weighted average anti-dilution
adjustments and other customary adjustments upon the issuance of shares of common stock below the conversion price, such as the issuance of shares and options to purchase shares in the CipherTrust acquisition, which resulted in an adjustment to the
conversion price of the Series A Preferred Stock to $12.75;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the approval of holders of majority of the Series A Preferred Stock is separately required to (i) approve changes to our certificate of incorporation or bylaws
that adversely affect Warburg Pincuss rights, (ii) adopt any stockholder rights plan that would dilute the economic or voting interest of Warburg Pincus, (iii) incur certain debt, distribute assets, pay dividends or repurchase
securities, (iv) create or
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



18



---

| | issue any equity security with rights senior to or on parity with the Series A Preferred Stock, (v) increase the size of our board of directors above
nine members and (vi) take any action that adversely affects the rights, preferences and privileges of the Series A Preferred Stock; and
| | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | for so long as Warburg Pincus and its affiliates owns at least 50% of its shares of Series A Preferred Stock, the holders of Series A Preferred Stock will have the
right, voting as a separate class, to appoint one member to our board of directors.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The potential increase in sales
from our relationships with various vendors of communications, security, and network management products or managed services may be reduced by requirements to provide volume price discounts and other allowances and significant costs incurred in
customizing our products.    Although we do not intend that such relationships be exclusive, we may be required to enter into an exclusive relationship or forego a significant sales opportunity. To the extent we become
dependent on actions by such parties, we could be adversely affected if the parties fail to perform as expected. To minimize our risk, we often set minimum quotas with our customers as a condition of exclusivity.

Competition from companies producing enterprise gateway security products could reduce our sales and market share.    The
market for enterprise gateway security products is intensely competitive and characterized by rapid technological change. We believe that competition in this market is likely to persist and to intensify as a result of increasing demand for security
products. Each of our individual products competes with a different group of competitors and products. Because the market for our products is highly competitive, it may be difficult to significantly increase our market share or our market share may
actually decline.

Our customers purchasing decisions are based heavily upon the quality of the security our products provide, the
ease of installation and management, the ability to increase the numbers of individuals using our software simultaneously, and the flexibility of our software. If a competitor can offer our customers a better solution in these areas or others and we
are unable to rapidly offer a competitive product, we may lose customers. Competitors with greater resources could offer new solutions rapidly and at relatively low costs which could lead to increased price pressure, reduced margins, and a loss of
market share.

Many of our competitors and potential competitors have significantly greater financial, marketing, technical, and other
competitive resources than we have. Our larger actual and potential competitors may be able to leverage an installed customer base and/or other existing or future enterprise-wide products, adapt more quickly to new or emerging technologies and
changes in customer requirements, or devote greater resources to the promotion and sale of their products than we can. Additionally, we may lose product sales to these competitors because of their greater name recognition and reputation among
potential customers.

Our future potential competitors could include developers of operating systems or hardware suppliers not currently
offering competitive enterprise gateway security products, including Microsoft, Sun Microsystems, Inc., IBM, Computer Associates, and Hewlett Packard. If any of those potential competitors begins to offer enterprise-wide security systems as a
component of its hardware, demand for our solutions could decrease. Ultimately, approaches other than ours may dominate the market for enterprise gateway security products.

In the future, we may also face competition from our competitors and other parties that develop or acquire enterprise gateway security products based
upon approaches that we employ. While we believe that we do not compete against manufacturers of other classes of security products, such as encryption, due to the complementary functions performed by such other classes, our customers may perceive
such other companies as our competitors.

Consolidation among competitors may erode our market share.    Current
and potential competitors have established, or may in the future establish, cooperative relationships among themselves or with third parties to increase the ability of their products to address the needs of our prospective customers. Accordingly, it
is possible that new competitors or alliances may emerge and rapidly acquire significant market share. If this were to occur, it could materially and adversely affect our financial condition or results of operations.



19



---

The trend toward multi-function security solutions may result in a consolidation of the market around a
smaller number of vendors that are able to provide the necessary breadth of products and services. In the event that we are unable to internally develop all of the products needed for a complete, secure e-business solution, we may need to acquire
such technology or be acquired by a larger entity. However, we cannot be certain that, in the event that we are not able to internally develop all of the products needed for an enterprise-wide security solution, we will be able to acquire such
technology or acquire or merge with other entities on terms favorable to us and our stockholders.

The pricing policies of our
competitors may impact the overall demand for our products and services and therefore, impacting our profitability.    Some of our competitors are capable of operating at significant losses for extended periods of time,
enabling them to sell their products and services at a lower price. If we do not maintain competitive pricing, the demand for our products and/or services, as well as our market share, may decline, having an adverse effect on our business. From time
to time, in responding to competitive pressures we lower the price of our products and services. When this happens, if we are unable to reduce our component costs or improve operating efficiencies, our margins could be adversely affected.

Other vendors may include products similar to ours in their hardware or software and render our products
obsolete.    In the future, vendors of hardware and of operating systems or other software may continue to enhance their products or bundle separate products to include functions that are currently provided primarily by
enterprise gateway security software. If network security functions become standard features of computer hardware or of operating system software or other software, our products may become obsolete and unmarketable, particularly if the quality of
these security features is comparable to that of our products. Furthermore, even if the enterprise gateway security and/or management functions provided as standard features by hardware providers or operating systems or other software is more
limited than that of our products, our customers might accept this limited functionality in lieu of purchasing additional software. Sales of our products would suffer materially if we were then unable to develop new enterprise gateway security and
management products to further enhance operating systems or other software and to replace any obsolete products.

Technology in the
enterprise gateway security market is changing rapidly, and if we fail to develop new products that are well accepted, our market share will erode.    To compete successfully, we must enhance our existing products and develop
and introduce new products in a timely manner. Our net sales and operating results could be materially affected if we fail to introduce new products on a timely basis. The rate of new enterprise gateway security product introductions is substantial
and security products have relatively short product life cycles. Our customer requirements and preferences change rapidly. Our net sales and operating results will be materially affected if the market adopts, as industry standards, solutions other
than those we employ.

Denial of our patent applications or invalidation or circumvention of our patents may weaken our ability to
compete in the enterprise gateway security market.    While we believe that our pending applications relate to patentable devices or concepts, we cannot be certain that any pending or future patent applications will be
granted. There is also the risk that a current or future patent, regardless of whether we are an owner or a licensee of such patent, may be challenged, invalidated or circumvented. In addition, we cannot be certain that the rights granted under a
patent or under licensing agreements will provide competitive advantages to us.

If another party alleges that we infringe its patents
or proprietary rights, we may incur substantial litigation costs.    Other than a claim made by Finjan Software Ltd., we are not aware of any third party claims that we or our products have infringed a patent or other
proprietary rights. However, the computer technology market is characterized by frequent and substantial intellectual property litigation. Intellectual property litigation is complex and expensive, and the outcome of such litigation is difficult to
predict. In the event that a third party were to make a claim of infringement against us, we could be required to devote substantial resources and management time to the defense of such claim, which could have a material adverse effect on our
business and results of operations.



20



---

Disclosure of our trade secrets or proprietary information may undermine our competitive
advantages.    We cannot be certain that the confidentiality agreements protecting our trade secrets and proprietary expertise will not be breached, that we will have adequate remedies for any breach, or that our trade
secrets will not otherwise become known to or independently developed by competitors.

If the use of public switched networks such as
the Internet does not continue to grow, our market and ability to sell our products and services may be limited.    Our sales also depend upon a robust industry and infrastructure for providing access to public switched
networks, such as the Internet. If the infrastructure or complementary products necessary to take these networks into viable commercial marketplaces are not developed or, if developed, these networks do not become and continue to be viable
commercial marketplaces, our net sales and operating results could suffer.

Our reliance on third party manufacturers of hardware
components and subassemblies that are used in our appliances and SafeWord token product lines could cause a delay in our ability to fill orders.    We currently purchase the hardware components for our appliance and SafeWord
token product lines from several major suppliers. Delays in receiving components would harm our ability to deliver our products on a timely basis and net sales and operating results could suffer.

Our product lines are not diversified beyond providing enterprise gateway security solutions to our customers, and any drop in the demand for
enterprise gateway security products would materially harm our business.    Substantially all of our revenue comes from sales of enterprise gateway security products and related services. We expect this will continue for the
foreseeable future. As a result, if for any reason our sales of these products and services are impeded, our net sales and operating results will be significantly reduced.

Our stock price is highly volatile, which may cause our investors to lose money and may impair our ability to raise money, if
necessary.    The price of our common stock, like that of many technology companies, has fluctuated widely. During 2007, our stock price ranged from a per share high of $10.54 to a low of $6.27. Fluctuation in our stock price
may cause our investors to lose money and impair our ability to raise additional capital, if necessary. Factors that may affect stock price volatility include:



| |  |  | Unexpected fluctuations in operating results;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Our competitors or us announcing technological innovations or new products;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | General economic conditions and weaknesses in geographic regions of the world;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Threat of or the occurrence of terrorist attacks or acts of war in the U.S. or abroad;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Developments with respect to our patents or other proprietary rights or those of our competitors;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Our ability to successfully execute our business plan and compete in the enterprise gateway security industry;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Relatively low trading volume;
| | - |  | ------------------------------



| |  |  | Product failures; and
| | - |  | ---------------------



| |  |  | Analyst reports and media stories.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------

If our products fail to function properly or are not properly designed, our reputation may be harmed, and customers may make product liability and warranty claims against us.    Our customers rely on our
Enterprise Gateway Security products to prevent unauthorized access to their networks and data transmissions. These customers include major financial institutions, defense-related government agencies protecting national security information, and
other large organizations. These customers use our products to protect confidential business information with commercial value far in excess of our net worth. Therefore, if our products malfunction or are not properly designed, we could face
warranty and other legal claims, which may exceed our ability to pay. We



21



---

seek to reduce the risk of these losses by attempting to negotiate warranty disclaimers and liability limitation clauses in our sales agreements. However,
these measures may ultimately prove ineffective in limiting our liability for damages.

In addition to any monetary liability for the
failure of our products, an actual or perceived breach of network or data security at one of our customers could harm the markets perception of our products and our business. The harm could occur regardless of whether that breach is
attributable to our products.

We also face the more general risk of bugs and other errors in our software. Software products often contain
undetected errors or bugs when first introduced or as new versions are released, and software products or media may contain undetected viruses. Errors or bugs may also be present in software that we license from third parties and incorporate into
our products. Errors, bugs, or viruses in our products may result in loss of or delay in market acceptance, recalls of hardware products incorporating the software, or loss of data. Our net sales and operating results could be materially reduced if
we experience delays or difficulties with new product introductions or product enhancements.

If we lose a significant customer, we will
realize smaller profits.    We derive a significant portion of our revenues from a limited number of customers. For example, our top five customers made up 10% of our sales in 2007. If we lose any of these customers or if our
revenues from any of these customers are reduced, and we fail to replace the customer or fail to increase sales from other customers, we will incur smaller gross profits.

If we fail to collect amounts due from our customers on a timely basis, our cash flow and operating results may suffer.    Because the timing of our revenues is difficult to predict and our
expenses are often difficult to reduce in the short run, management of our cash flow is very important to us. Like most companies, we anticipate that a portion of the amounts owed to us will never be paid. However, if our actual collection of
amounts owed to us is less than we have estimated, we will have less cash to fund our operations than we anticipated, and our financial condition and operating results could be adversely affected.

In addition, collection of amounts due to us from sales to international customers generally takes longer than for other sales. Therefore, if our sales
to international customers increase as a percentage of our total revenue, the average number of days it takes for us to collect amounts due from our customers may increase. If there is an increase in the time required for us to collect amounts due
us, we will have less cash to fund our operations than we anticipated. This in turn could adversely affect our financial condition and operating results.

We have taken and may from time to time take various forms of action to manage the amounts due us from customers and grant customer discounts in exchange for earlier payment.

Quarterly net sales and operating results depend on the volume and timing of orders received, which may be affected by large individual transactions
and which sometimes are difficult to predict.    Our quarterly operating results may vary significantly depending on a number of other factors, including:



| |  |  | The timing of the introduction or enhancement of products by us or our competitors;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The size, timing, and shipment of individual orders;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Market acceptance of new products;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------



| |  |  | Changes in our operating expenses;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------



| |  |  | Personnel departures and new hires and the rate at which new personnel become productive;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Mix of products sold;
| | - |  | ---------------------



| |  |  | Changes in product pricing;
| | - |  | ---------------------------



| |  |  | Development of our direct and indirect distribution channels;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Costs incurred when anticipated sales do not occur; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | General economic conditions.
| | - |  | ----------------------------

Sales of our products generally involve a significant commitment of capital by customers, with the
attendant delays frequently associated with large capital expenditures. For these and other reasons, the sales cycle for our products is typically lengthy and subject to a number of significant risks over which we have little or no control. We are
often required to ship products shortly after we receive orders, and consequently, order backlog, if any, at the beginning of any period has in the past represented only a small portion, if any, of that periods expected revenue. As a result,
our product sales in any period substantially depend on orders booked and shipped in that period. We typically plan our production and inventory levels based on internal forecasts of customer demand, which are highly unpredictable and can fluctuate
substantially.

If customer demand falls below anticipated levels, it could seriously harm our operating results. In addition, our
operating expenses are based on anticipated revenue levels, and a high percentage of our expenses are generally fixed in the short term. Based on these factors, a small fluctuation in the timing of sales can cause operating results to vary
significantly from period to period.

The Internet may become subject to increased regulation by government
agencies.    Due to the increasing popularity and use of the Internet, it is possible that a number of laws and regulations may be adopted with respect to the Internet, covering issues such as user privacy, pricing and
characteristics, and quality of products and services. In addition, the adoption of laws or regulations may slow the growth of the Internet, which could in turn decrease the demand for our products and increase our cost of doing business or
otherwise have an adverse effect on our business, operating results or financial condition.

Anti-takeover provisions in our charter
documents and Delaware law could discourage a takeover or future financing.    The terms of our certificate of incorporation permit our Board of Directors to issue up to 2,000,000 shares of preferred stock and determine the
price, rights, preferences, privileges, and restrictions, including voting rights, of those shares without any further vote or action by our stockholders.

The Board may authorize the issuance of additional preferred stock with voting or conversion rights that could materially weaken the voting power or other rights of the holders of our common stock. The issuance of
preferred stock, while providing desirable flexibility in connection with possible acquisitions and other corporate purposes could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire a majority of our outstanding voting stock. Further, provisions of
Delaware law, our certificate of incorporation and our bylaws, such as a classified board and limitations on the ability of stockholders to call special meetings, could delay or make more difficult a merger, tender offer, proxy contest, or other
takeover attempts.

The ability to attract and retain highly qualified personnel to develop our products and manage our business is
extremely important, and our failure to do so could harm our business.    We believe our success depends to a large extent upon a number of key technical and management employees. We may be unable to achieve our sales and
operating performance objectives unless we can attract and retain technically qualified and highly skilled engineers and sales, consulting, technical, financial, operations, marketing, and management personnel. These personnel are particularly
important to our research and development efforts and, as such, we employ a large number of technical personnel holding advanced degrees and special professional certification. Competition for qualified personnel is intense, and we expect it to
remain so for the foreseeable future. We may not be successful in retaining our existing key personnel and in attracting and retaining the personnel we require. Our operating results and our ability to successfully execute our business plan will be
adversely affected if we fail to retain and increase our key employee population.

Our international operations subject us to risks
related to doing business in foreign countries.    International sales are a substantial portion of our business. Although all of our sales are payable in U.S. dollars as of December 31, 2007, several factors could make
it difficult for customers from foreign countries to purchase our products and services or pay us for obligations already incurred. Such factors include:



| |  |  | Severe economic decline in one of our major foreign markets; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Substantial decline in the exchange rate for foreign currencies with respect to the U.S. dollar.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



23



---

A decline in our international sales or collections of amounts due us from customers could materially
affect our operations and financial conditions. For fiscal year 2007, 36% of our total revenue came from international sales compared to 39% in 2006. A very large drop in our sales or collections of amounts due to us in these specific countries as a
result of recession or other economic or political disturbances would likely harm our net sales and operating results.

In addition, we
face a number of general risks inherent in doing business in international markets including, among others:



| |  |  | Unexpected changes in regulatory requirements;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Tariffs and other trade barriers;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------



| |  |  | Legal uncertainty regarding liability;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------



| |  |  | Threat of or the occurrence of terrorist attacks or acts of war;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Political instability;
| | - |  | ----------------------



| |  |  | Potentially greater difficulty in collecting amounts due us;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Longer periods of time to collect amounts due us; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | A higher rate of piracy of our products in countries with a high incidence of software piracy.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ITEM 3.    LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On June 5, 2006, Finjan Software, Ltd. filed a
complaint entitled Finjan Software, Ltd. v. Secure Computing Corporation in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware against Secure Computing Corporation, CyberGuard Corporation, and Webwasher AG. The complaint alleged that
Secure Computing and its named subsidiaries infringe U.S. Patent No. 6,092,194 (194 Patent) based on the manufacture, use, and sale of the Webwasher Secure Content Management suite, CyberGuard TSP, and IronMail. On
April 10, 2007, Finjan amended its Complaint to allege that Secure Computing and its named subsidiaries infringe U.S. Patent No. 6,804,780 (780 Patent) and U.S. Patent No. 7,058,822 (822 Patent)
based on the manufacture, use, and sale of the Webwasher Secure Content Management suite. Secure Computing denies infringing any valid claims of the 194 Patent, the 780 Patent, or the 822 Patent. The answer and counterclaims to
Finjans amended complaint was filed on April 20, 2007. In its counterclaims, Secure Computing alleges that Finjan infringes two Secure Computing patentsU.S. Patent No. 6,357,010 and U.S. Patent No. 7,185,361. Discovery is
complete and trial is set to begin on March 3, 2008.

On May 4, 2007, Secure Computing filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the
district of Minnesota against Finjan Software Ltd. and Finjan Software, Inc. In its complaint, Secure Computing asserts that Finjans load-balancing security solutions, including but not limited to Finjans Vital Security Load Balancer
NG-5300, infringe U.S. Patent No. 7,171,681. On May 24, 2007, Secure Computing filed an amended complaint adding additional claims that Finjan is in violation of §43(a) of the Lanham Act, the Minnesota Deceptive Trade Practices Act,
and Minnesotas common law, for unfair competition and false advertising. The complaint seeks, among other things, unspecified monetary damages arising from Finjans unauthorized use of Secure Computings patented technology and for
Finjans continued and willful false and/or misleading statements in advertising. Finjan has counterclaimed, asserting that Secure Computing has breached a Smartfilter OEM Agreement, and that Secure Computing is in violation of §43(a) of
the Lanham Act, the Delaware Deceptive Trade Practices Act, and Delawares common law, for unfair competition and false advertising. Secure Computing denies the allegations made in Finjans counterclaims. This matter was transferred
to the United States District Court for the district of Delaware. Discovery has not yet commenced.

On January 19, 2007, Rosenbaum
Capital, LLC. filed a putative securities class action complaint in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California against Secure Computing and certain directors and officers of the company. The alleged plaintiff class
includes persons who acquired our stock between May 4, 2006 through July 11, 2006. The complaint alleges generally that defendants made false and misleading statements about our business condition and prospects for the fiscal quarter ended
June 30, 2006, in violation of Section 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and SEC Rule 10b-5. The complaint seeks unspecified monetary damages. After plaintiff filed an amended complaint on July 2, 2007, the
defendants filed motions to dismiss. Those motions are fully briefed, and the parties are awaiting a decision. To the extent plaintiff is found to have stated a valid legal claim, which defendants dispute, we believe that our public statements
during the class period were timely and accurate; and the defendants intend to defend the claims vigorously.

On September 21, 2007,
Diane Josifovich filed a complaint against Secure Computing in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Somerset County. The complaint alleges that Secure Computing breached its contract with Ms. Josifovich with respect to payment for commission
sales. Related to this allegation, the complaint also alleges claims of promissory estoppel, equitable estoppel, misrepresentation, and breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing. The complaint also alleges that Secure Computing
retaliated against Ms. Josifovich and created a hostile work environment on the basis of Ms. Josifovichs gender. The complaint seeks unspecified monetary damages. In February 2008, the plaintiff amended her complaint to add a claim
that she was allegedly retaliated against by being placed on a performance improvement plan and terminated. This matter is pending.

We
intend to vigorously defend all claims against us.

|ITEM 5. | MARKET FOR REGISTRANTS COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES
|------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Market Information

Our common stock is listed on the
NASDAQ Global Select Market under the ticker symbol SCUR. As of February 20, 2008, there were approximately 4,300 registered holders. The number of registered holders represents the number of stockholders of record plus the number
of individual participants in security position listings. We believe, however, that many beneficial holders of our common stock have registered their shares in nominee or street name and that there are approximately 25,000 beneficial owners. The low
and high sale price of our common stock during the last eight quarters is as follows:



|        |  |       |  |      |  |       |  |      
|------- |  | ----- |  | ---- |  | ----- |  | -----

|        |  |       |  |     
|Second  |  | 8.68  |  | 7.07 |  | 11.85 |  | 7.65

|Fourth  |  | 10.54 |  | 8.56 |  | 7.27  |  | 6.15 

We have not paid any dividends on our common stock during the periods set forth above. It is
presently the policy of the Board of Directors to retain earnings for use in expanding and developing our business. Accordingly, we do not anticipate paying dividends on the common stock in the foreseeable future.

Sale of Unregistered Securities

In August 2005, we
entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Warburg Pincus IX, L.P., as amended December 9, 2005. Pursuant to the terms of the Securities Agreement, we agreed to issue to Warburg Pincus 700,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock and a
warrant to purchase 1,000,000 shares of our common stock in exchange for $70 million, subject to stockholder approval, among other conditions. The shares of Series A Preferred Stock are convertible at $12.75 a share and include a 5% accretive
dividend. The warrant is exercisable at a price of $13.85 per share. On January 11, 2006, our stockholders approved the issuance of shares of Series A Preferred Stock and a warrant to purchase shares of our common stock to Warburg Pincus, which
we issued on January 12, 2006. The issuance was deemed to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 in reliance upon Section 4(2) thereof as transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering. We filed a
Registration Statement on Form S-3 which registered the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock and the common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrant for resale.

In August 2006, we acquired 100% of the outstanding common shares of CipherTrust, Inc., a privately-held company. The aggregate purchase price was $270.1
million consisting primarily of $188.1 million in cash, the issuance of 10.0 million shares of common stock valued at $68.1 million, the conversion of outstanding CipherTrust stock options into options to purchase 2.5 million shares of our
common stock with a fair value of $7.8 million, and direct costs of the acquisition of $6.1 million. The issuance of 10.0 million shares of common stock was exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended, and pursuant to Rule 506 of Regulation D of the Securities Act.

Executive Overview

We are a leading provider of enterprise gateway security solutions. Our best-of-breed portfolio of solutions provides Web Gateway, Mail Gateway, and Network Gateway security, as well as Identity and Access Management
that are further differentiated by the proactive protection provided by TrustedSource global intelligence.

Our specialized solutions are
designed to meet customers needs to balance security and accessibility, and to help them create trusted environments both inside and outside their organizations. Each of our products provides a complete solution in and of itself, and they also
integrate with each other for a more comprehensive, unified, and centrally managed solution. We have developed a vision for comprehensive security on the enterprise gateway that embodies the following core design principles: appliance-based
delivery; real-time, reputation-driven intelligence; application and content awareness; centralized policy, management and reporting; bi-directional protection; user management and education; performance; and resiliency.

We continue to execute on our strategy to significantly increase our presence in the industry and
to define and become the leader in the enterprise gateway security market. In early 2007 we completed the development that merged the acquired CyberGuard Firewall/VPN technologies (TSP and Classic) with our Sidewinder G2® Security Appliance resulting in our next generation Network Gateway Security appliance called Sidewinder 7.0. In addition, we integrated our CipherTrust acquired TrustedSource technology into our CyberGuard acquired
SnapGear® firewall/VPN appliance for small and medium-sized businesses (SMB) and remote offices resulting in an industry leading, next generation SMB Network Security Appliance. We also
released a newly enhanced version of our award-winning Web filtering solution, SmartFilter® 4.2 with TrustedSource technology which marks our fourth product integration with TrustedSource,
our global reputation system.

In the second half of 2007 we completed development and released Webwasher 6.6. In addition, we completed
development and released IronMail 6.7. With these releases, all current version appliances for our Web, Mail, and Network Gateway products are consolidated on a common set of appliance platforms.

Our Enterprise Gateway Security revenue represented 86% of total revenue in 2007, a 40% or $58.7 million increase over the prior year. The increase was
driven by the acquired CipherTrust products which contributed $41.0 million and sustained demand for Enterprise Gateway Security solutions. Our Identity and Access Management revenue represented 14% of total revenue in 2007, an 8% or $2.5 million
increase over the prior year. This increase was primarily driven by sustained demand for high assurance solutions.

Our global footprint
now encompasses more than 22,000 customers operating some of the largest and most sensitive networks and applications in the world. Our partners and customers include the majority of the Dow Jones Global 50 Titans and numerous organizations in the
Fortune 1,000, as well as banking, financial services, healthcare, real estate, telecommunications, manufacturing, public utilities, schools and federal, state and local governments. We also have close relationships with the largest agencies in the
U.S. government.

International sales accounted for 36% of total revenue during 2007. Major foreign markets for our products include
Europe, Japan, China, the Pacific Rim, the Middle East, Australia and Latin America. In each market, we have independent channel partners responsible for marketing, selling and supporting our products to resellers and end-users. In 2007, our market
presence continued to expand through our extensive worldwide network of value-added resellers, distributors, and OEM partners. These partners generated 85% of our sales in 2007.

Each of our individual products competes with a different group of competitors and products. In this highly competitive market, characterized by rapid
technological change, our customers purchasing decisions are based heavily upon the quality of the security our products provide, the ease of installation and management, and the scalability and flexibility of our software.

Specific challenges and risks that our product lines face include, but are not limited to: responding to competitor pricing policies and competitive
features; rapid technological change in the network security market; and risk of bugs and other errors in our software.

We incurred net losses of $35.1 million and $27.4 million in 2007 and 2006, respectively. Until we are
able to establish vendor specific objective evidence (VSOE) on the sales of our CipherTrust product line and our revenue outpaces our operating expenses, including share-based compensation and amortization of intangible assets, we expect to generate
net losses going forward. For further explanation of VSOE and our revenue recognition policy, refer to the Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates section on page 38.

As of December 31, 2007, we had $12.1 million in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash with no outstanding borrowings on our $20.0 million
revolving credit facility. We generated $52.0 million in cash from operations for the year of which $44.0 million was used to accelerate payments on our term debt. As of December 31, 2007, our term debt balance, net of fees, was $41.5 million
and we were in compliance with all debt covenants. We expect to generate cash during 2008 as we expect billings to continue to grow at a faster rate than operating expenses.

|NOTE: | For certain multiple-element arrangements we are unable to establish vendor specific objective evidence (VSOE) of fair value for the undelivered bundled elements and are
therefore unable to allocate the value of the arrangement between Products and Services Revenue and have reported these revenues and corresponding cost of revenues as Other.

Comparison of Years Ended December 31, 2007 and 2006.

Revenue.    Our total revenues increased 35% to $237.9 million in 2007, up from $176.7 million in 2006. Our product revenues
increased 12% to $127.0 million in 2007, up from $113.6 million in 2006. Our service revenues increased 24% to $74.7 million in 2007, up from $60.1 million in 2006. Other revenue increased $33.2 million in 2007 to $36.2 million, up from $3.0 million
in 2006. Other revenue represents multiple element sales that lacked VSOE in the prior periods and became recognizable in 2007 and 2006, respectively. This revenue is primarily from our Mail Gateway product line revenues, which were acquired with
the CipherTrust acquisition in 2006. Because we are unable to establish VSOE of fair value on undelivered elements, the majority of the revenue from those product lines has been deferred and will be recognized as revenue over the service period. The
total revenue growth was driven by a 40% or $58.7 million increase in the Enterprise Gateway Security revenue which represented 86% of total revenue and an 8% or $2.5 million increase in the Identity and Access Management revenue which represented
14% of total revenue. The growth in the Enterprise Gateway Security revenue was primarily driven by a $41.0 million increase in the Mail Gateway product line acquired in late 2006.

Cost of Revenues and Gross Profit.    Total cost of revenues, which includes products and services costs and the amortization
of purchased intangibles, increased 42% to $70.0 million in 2007, up from $49.2 million in 2006. This increase is the direct result of the increase in both total revenues and the amortization of purchased intangibles. Gross profit as a percentage of
revenue decreased from 72% in 2006 to 71% in 2007. Gross profit for products decreased to 69% in 2007 compared to 73% in 2006. This decline was driven by the increased amortization of the developed technologies acquired in the CipherTrust
acquisition and by the increased sales volume on products containing a hardware component, which have a lower gross profit margin than our software products. Gross margins were also reduced as more of our business continues to be transacted with
channel partners versus direct to end users. In 2007 sales to our indirect channel partners comprised 85% of total sales versus 81% of total sales in 2006. Gross profit for services was 78% in 2007 compared to 81% in 2006. The decline in the gross
profit rate for services was primarily driven by increased customer support costs due to share-based compensation and increased customer support headcount and related costs in 2007 compared to 2006.

Operating Expenses.    Operating expenses consist of selling and marketing, research and development, general and
administrative expenses, amortization expense for purchased intangible assets, and litigation settlement costs. Total operating expenses increased 31% to $190.9 million for 2007, up from $145.3 million in 2006. This increase was driven primarily by
increased headcount and related costs as a direct result of the CipherTrust acquisition. To a lesser extent, operating expenses increased as a result of inflationary increases in payroll and related costs. As a percentage of revenue, total operating
expenses were 80% for 2007 compared to 82% in 2006. This improvement was primarily driven by the growth in revenue and gross profit outpacing the increase in research and development and general and administrative expenses faster than the growth in
selling and marketing expenses along with no litigation settlement costs being incurred in 2007 compared to 2006.

Selling and
Marketing.Selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries, commissions, share-based compensation and benefits related to personnel engaged in selling and marketing functions, along with costs related to
advertising, promotions, public relations, travel and allocations of corporate costs, which include information technology, facilities and human resources expenses. Our customer support function, which provides support, training and installation
services, is also responsible for supporting our sales representatives and sales engineers throughout the sales cycle by providing them and our prospective customers with technical assistance and, as such, a portion of those costs are included here.
Selling and marketing expenses increased 42% to $120.0 million in 2007, up from $84.5 million in 2006. This increase was driven primarily by increased sales and customer support headcount and related costs as a direct result of the CipherTrust
acquisition and to a lesser extent inflationary increases in payroll and related costs and share-based compensation costs. As a percentage of revenue, selling and marketing expenses were 50% in 2007 compared to 48% in 2006. This increase was
primarily driven by the growth in sales and customer support headcount and discretionary marketing expenses outpacing the increase in revenue.

---

Research and Development.    Research and development expenses consist
primarily of salaries, share-based compensation and benefits for our product development personnel and allocations of corporate costs, which include information technology, facilities and human resources expenses. Research and development expenses
increased 29% to $44.0 million in 2007, up from $34.1 million in 2006. This increase was driven primarily by increased research and development headcount and related costs as a direct result of the CipherTrust acquisition and to a lesser extent
inflationary increases in payroll and related costs, share-based compensation costs, and inflationary increases in allocated corporate costs. As a percentage of revenue, research and development expenses were 18% in 2007 compared to 19% in 2006.
This improvement was primarily driven by the growth in revenue and gross profit outpacing the increase in research and development expenses.

General and Administrative.    General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries, share-based compensation, benefits and related expenses for our executive, finance and legal personnel, directors
and officers insurance and allocations of corporate costs, which include information technology, facilities and human resources expenses. General and administrative expenses increased 18% to $16.0 million in 2007, up from $13.6 million in 2006. This
increase was driven primarily by increased share-based compensation costs and an increase in legal fees associated with defending the complaints described in Note 13 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. As a percentage of
revenue, general and administrative expenses were 7% in 2007 compared to 8% in 2006. This improvement was primarily driven by the growth in revenue and gross profit outpacing the increase in general and administrative expenses.

Amortization of Purchased Intangible Assets.    Amortization of purchased intangible assets consists of the amortization of
tradenames and customer lists acquired in the CipherTrust and CyberGuard acquisitions, described in Note 2 and 3 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, respectively. Amortization expense for these acquired tradenames and customer
lists increased 2% to $10.9 million in 2007 up from $10.6 million in 2006 due to a full year of amortization expense being recorded for CipherTrust intangibles acquired in August 2006, offset by the decrease in the amortization expense recognized
for the CyberGuard intangibles acquired in January 2006. As a percentage of revenue, amortization expense for purchase intangible assets was 5% in 2007 compared to 6% in 2006. This improvement was primarily driven by growth in revenue and an
immaterial increase in amortization expense.

Share-Based Compensation Expense. Share-based compensation expense related to
stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units and shares purchased under our Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP) under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, was
allocated as follows (in thousands):

The increase in share-based compensation expense is due to increased headcount and a full year of
share-based compensation expense being recognized for the grants awarded to acquired CyberGuard employees in May 2006 and acquired CipherTrust employees in September 2006. In 2006, we granted restricted stock awards under the 2002 Plan primarily to
certain executive officers. In addition to issuing stock options, during the first quarter of 2007 we began issuing restricted stock awards and restricted stock units to employees at all job levels. Restricted stock awards and units granted under
the 2002 Plan typically vest 25% after the first year and then quarterly over the following three years.

Litigation Settlement.Litigation settlement expense of $2.5 million in
2006 pertained to a charge related to litigation brought by the landlord of our former Concord, CA office. This expense represents a judgment in favor of the plaintiff for $1.1 million and additional costs of $1.4 million we incurred related to
damages. The settlement was paid in July 2006.

Other Expense.    Other expense was $6.8 million in 2007 as
compared to $120,000 in 2006. This increase is primarily a result of incurred interest expense related to debt assumed for the CipherTrust acquisition and a decrease in interest income on a lower average cash balance.

Income Taxes.During 2007, we recorded income tax expense of $5.3 million. Of this $5.3 million income tax expense,
$397,000 is a cash tax expense related to domestic taxes and $1.7 million of foreign income taxes due. The remaining tax expense is all non-cash expense. The significant components of the non-cash portion are $245,000 related to an increase to
Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 48 (FIN 48) tax interest and penalties that would impact the effective tax rate, $879,000 related to the release of valuation allowance on our foreign deferred tax assets, in which the
benefit was recorded to goodwill and $2.0 million related to indefinite lived intangibles. This is compared with $9.5 million of income tax expense recorded in 2006 which consisted of $8.5 million non-cash expense related to a net tax valuation
allowance recorded on our net deferred tax assets and the remainder related to current income tax.

Federal alternative minimum tax was
provided on the portion of our alternative minimum taxable income which could not be entirely offset by the available alternative tax net operating loss deduction carryforward. Current tax law provides that part or all of the amount of the
alternative minimum tax paid can be carried forward indefinitely and credited against federal regular tax in future tax years to the extent the regular tax liability exceeds the alternative minimum tax in those years. For 2007, the reversal of
$879,000 of the tax valuation allowance related to acquired net operating losses was recorded as a decrease to goodwill in the balance sheet and not as a benefit to tax expense in the income statement. This is compared to $3.1 million recorded in
2006.

In accordance with SFAS No. 109, we have assessed the likelihood that the net deferred tax assets will be realized. SFAS
No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, requires the consideration of a valuation allowance in all circumstances, if the conclusion is not more likely than not a valuation allowance is required. We have recorded a deferred tax
liability on our balance sheet for indefinite lived intangible assets that are not deductible for tax purposes and therefore cannot be used to realize additional reversing deferred tax assets. We also have a deferred tax asset that is able to be
recognized on the FIN 48 liabilities that are recorded. In accordance with SFAS No. 109, our remaining noncurrent deferred tax liabilities are netted with our noncurrent deferred tax assets and are presented as a single amount in our
consolidated balance sheet. We have determined that primarily all of our net deferred tax assets are not more likely than not to be realized, and as such a full valuation allowance has been placed on this amount.

We adopted the provisions of FIN 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an Interpretation of SFAS No. 109 on January 1,
2007. FIN 48 creates a single model to address uncertainty in tax positions and clarifies the accounting for income taxes by prescribing the minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial
statements. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, measurement, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. At the adoption date, January 1, 2007, we did not have a material
liability under FIN 48 for unrecognized tax benefits. Since adoption, we have recognized approximately a $1.4 million increase in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits, $245,000 of which, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate. We
have $1.1 million of uncertain tax benefits which, if recognized, would be offset by an increase in the valuation allowance on net operating losses and thus have no impact on the effective tax rate. Also, in accordance with FIN 48, we have
recognized $30,000 in interest expense and $31,000 in penalties, as income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2007.

Worldwide net operating loss carryforwards totaled approximately $357.1 million at December 31, 2007, comprised of $344.1 million domestic net operating loss carryforwards and $13.0 million of international net



33



---

operating loss carryforwards. These carryforwards are available to offset taxable income through 2027 and will start to expire in 2011. Of these
carryforwards, $107.9 million relates to acquired CyberGuard net operating losses, $63.7 million relates to acquired N2H2 net operating losses, and $20.2 million relates to acquired CipherTrust net operating losses. Utilization of state
carryforrwards may differ in some states due to methodologies used by the various jurisdictions. We have provided a complete valuation allowance on primarily all of these acquired losses, and upon release of the valuation allowance, a portion of the
benefit will go to the balance sheet to reduce goodwill instead of a benefit to the income tax provision. With the adoption of SFAS No. 141(R) in 2009, the recognition of changes in the acquirers income tax valuation allowance resulting
from business combinations will be recorded as adjustments to income tax expense. As of December 31, 2007 we have deducted $62.1 million related to stock option exercises. The tax benefit from these stock option exercises will be recorded
as an increase to additional paid-in capital upon utilization of the net operating losses.

As a matter of course, we are regularly audited
by federal, state and foreign tax authorities. From time to time, the audits result in proposed assessments. During the second quarter of 2007, we reached a settlement with the Internal Revenue Service regarding all assessments proposed with respect
to the CipherTrust federal income tax return for 2003 and 2005. The audit of CipherTrusts federal income tax return for 2004 was settled in 2006. The final resolution of these audits did not have a materially adverse effect on our consolidated
financial position, liquidity and results of operations.

Estimates were used in the determination of our provision for income taxes,
current income taxes payable and in our deferred tax asset and liability analysis. These estimates take into account current tax laws and our interpretation of these current tax laws within the various taxing jurisdictions within which we operate.
Changes in the tax laws or our interpretation of tax laws and the resolution of future audits could impact our provision for income taxes.

Comparison of Years Ended December 31, 2006 and 2005.

Revenue.Our total revenues
increased 62% to $176.7 million in 2006, up from $109.2 million in 2005. Our product revenues increased 46% to $115.6 million in 2006, up from $79.3 million in 2005. Our service revenues increased 105% to $61.1 million in 2006, up from $29.8 million
in 2005. Other revenue was $3.0 million in 2006 compared with none in 2005. Other revenue represents multiple element sales that lacked VSOE in the prior periods and became recognizable in 2006. This revenue is primarily from our Mail Gateway
product line revenues, which were acquired with the CipherTrust acquisition in 2006. Because we are unable to establish VSOE of fair value on undelivered elements, the majority of the revenue from those product lines has been deferred and will be
recognized as revenue over the service period. The increase in total revenues in 2006 was driven by growth across all product categories. Our Enterprise Gateway Security revenue represented 83% of total revenue in 2006, a 79% or $65.1 million
increase over the prior year. The increase was driven by the acquired CyberGuard products which contributed $63.1 million in 2006 and sustained demand for Enterprise Gateway Security solutions. Our Identity and Access Management revenue represented
17% of total revenue in 2006, a 9% or $2.4 million increase over the prior year. This increase was primarily driven by sustained demand for high assurance solutions. Because we are unable to establish VSOE of fair value on the CipherTrust product
line revenues, the majority of the revenue from those product lines has been deferred and will be recognized as revenue over the term of the undelivered elements.

Cost of Revenues and Gross Profit.    Total cost of revenues, which includes products and services costs and the amortization of purchased intangibles, increased 124% to $49.2 million in
2006, up from $22.0 million in 2005. This increase is the direct result of the increase in total revenues and the addition of the amortization of purchased intangibles and share-based compensation. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue decreased
from 80% in 2005 to 72% in 2006. Gross profit for products decreased to 68% in 2006 compared to 79% in 2005. This decline was driven by the amortization of the developed technologies acquired in the CyberGuard and CipherTrust acquisitions and by the
increased sales volume on products containing a hardware component, which have a lower gross profit margin than our software products. Gross margins were also reduced as more of our business continued to be transacted with channel partners versus
direct to end-users. In 2006 sales to our indirect channel partners comprised 81% of total sales versus 73% of total sales in 2005. Gross profit for services was



34



---

81% in 2006 compared to 83% in 2005. The decline in the gross profit rate for services was primarily driven by increased customer support costs due to
share-based compensation and increased headcount and related costs in 2006 compared to 2005.

Operating
Expenses.    Operating expenses consist of selling and marketing, research and development, and general and administrative expenses, amortization of purchased intangible assets, and litigation settlement costs. Total
operating expenses increased 118% to $145.3 million for 2006, up from $66.8 million in 2005. This increase was driven primarily by increased headcount and related costs as a result of the CyberGuard and CipherTrust acquisitions. To a lesser extent,
operating expenses increased as a result of inflationary increases in payroll and related costs, and increases in allocated corporate costs. As a percentage of revenue, total operating expenses were 82% for 2006 compared to 61% in 2005. This
increase was primarily driven by the inclusion of costs not incurred in 2005, such as: share-based compensation of $9.6 million, amortization of purchased intangibles of $10.6 million, litigation settlement expense of $2.5 million, and costs for
severance due to acquisition related restructurings, duplicate and integration costs, facility move costs and the write-off of an asset that was deemed to be fully impaired as a result of our acquisition of CipherTrust of $2.6 million. In addition,
the acquired and assumed CyberGuard and CipherTrust expenses were higher as a percentage of revenue than our 2005 stand-alone expense rates.

Selling and Marketing.Selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries, commissions, share-based compensation and benefits related to personnel engaged in selling and marketing functions, along
with costs related to advertising, promotions, public relations, travel and allocations of corporate costs, which include information technology, facilities and human resources expenses. Our customer support function, which provides support,
training and installation services, is also responsible for supporting our sales representatives and sales engineers throughout the sales cycle by providing them and our prospective customers with technical assistance and, as such, a portion of
those costs are included here. Selling and marketing expenses increased 100% to $84.5 million in 2006, up from $42.3 million in 2005. This increase was driven primarily by increased headcount and related costs along with severance for restructurings
as a result of the CyberGuard and CipherTrust acquisitions, and to a lesser extent inflationary increases in payroll and related costs, share-based compensation costs, the write-off of an asset that was deemed fully impaired as a result of the
CipherTrust acquisition and inflationary increases in allocated corporate costs. As a percentage of revenue, selling and marketing expenses were 48% in 2006 compared to 39% in 2005. This increase was driven by costs for our acquisitions, share-based
compensation costs, and in addition, the acquired and assumed CyberGuard and CipherTrust expenses were higher as a percentage of revenue than our 2005 stand-alone expense rates.

Research and Development.    Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries, share-based compensation and
benefits for our product development and advanced technology personnel and allocations of corporate costs, which include information technology, facilities and human resources expenses. Research and development expenses increased 103% to $34.1
million in 2006, up from $16.8 million in 2005. This increase was driven primarily by increased headcount and related costs as a result of the CyberGuard and CipherTrust acquisitions and to a lesser extent inflationary increases in payroll and
related costs, share-based compensation costs, and inflationary increases in allocated corporate costs. As a percentage of revenue, research and development expenses were 19% for the year compared to 15% in 2005. This increase was driven by
share-based compensation costs and in addition, the acquired and assumed CyberGuard and CipherTrust expense rates were higher as a percentage of revenue than our 2005 stand-alone expenses.

General and Administrative.    General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries, share-based compensation,
benefits and related expenses for our executive, finance and legal personnel, directors and officers insurance and allocations of corporate costs, which include information technology, facilities and human resources expenses. General and
administrative expenses increased 89% to $13.6 million in 2006, up from $7.2 million in 2005. This increase was driven primarily by increased headcount and related costs as a result of the CyberGuard and CipherTrust acquisitions, legal fees, and to
a lesser extent inflationary increases in payroll and related costs, share-based compensation costs, audit fees, and inflationary increases in allocated corporate costs.



35



---

As a percentage of revenue, general and administrative expenses were 8% in 2006 compared to 7% in 2005. This increase was primarily due to duplicate costs
incurred for the transitional employees due to the acquisitions.

Amortization of Purchased Intangible
Assets.    Amortization of purchased intangible assets consists of the amortization of tradenames and customer lists acquired in the CipherTrust and CyberGuard acquisitions, described in Note 2 and 3 of the Notes to the
Consolidated Financial Statements, respectively, and to a lesser extent the N2H2 acquisition in 2003. Amortization of these acquired tradenames and customer lists was $10.6 million, or 6% of revenue, in 2006 compared to $496,000, or less than 1% of
revenue, in 2005. This increase is due to the additional intangibles acquired in the CyberGuard and CipherTrust acquisitions.

Share-Based Compensation Expense.    On January 1, 2006, we adopted SFAS No. 123(R). Share-based compensation expense related to stock options, restricted stock awards and shares purchased under our ESPP
under SFAS No. 123(R) was $10.6 million in 2006 and none in 2005.

Litigation Settlement.Litigation
settlement expense of $2.5 million pertained to a charge related to litigation brought by the landlord of our former Concord, CA office. This expense represents a judgment in favor of the plaintiff for $1.1 million and additional costs of $1.4
million we incurred related to damages. The settlement was paid in July 2006.

Other (Expense)/Income.    Other
expense was $120,000 in 2006 as compared to other income of $1.6 million in 2005. The decrease is primarily a result of incurred interest expense related to debt assumed for the CipherTrust acquisition and a decrease in interest income on a lower
average cash balance.

Income Taxes.    During 2006, we recorded income tax expense of $9.5 million. Of this
$9.5 million income tax expense, a non-cash expense of $8.5 million is related to a net tax valuation allowance recorded on our net deferred tax assets. We were unable to benefit from the initial release of valuation allowance on utilized acquired
net operating losses, and needed to provide tax expense for the subsequent valuation allowance reapplied to the remaining net operating losses. This was a result of changes in circumstances due to recent acquisitions that caused a change in judgment
regarding the realizability of our net deferred tax assets in the fourth quarter. The remainder of the income tax expense is related to current income tax components such as, alternative minimum income tax, and state and foreign income taxes. This
is compared with $608,000 of income tax expense recorded in 2005 which consisted of $349,000 for alternative minimum tax expense, $58,000 for state income tax expense and $201,000 for various foreign income tax expenses.

Federal alternative minimum tax was provided on the portion of our alternative minimum taxable income which could not be entirely offset by the
alternative tax net operating loss deduction carryforward which we have available. Similar to 2006, we anticipate that we will be in an alternative minimum taxable income position in 2007. Current tax law provides that part or all of the amount of
the alternative minimum tax paid can be carried forward indefinitely and credited against federal regular tax in future tax years to the extent the regular tax liability exceeds the alternative minimum tax in those years. For 2006, the reversal of
$3.1 million of the tax valuation allowance related to acquired net operating losses was recorded as a decrease to goodwill in the balance sheet and not as a benefit to tax expense in the income statement.

In accordance with SFAS No. 109, we have assessed the likelihood that the net deferred tax assets will be realized. SFAS No. 109, Accounting
for Income Taxes, requires the consideration of a valuation allowance in all circumstances, if the conclusion is not more likely than not a valuation allowance is required. We have determined that it is more likely than not that deferred tax
assets of $24.4 million at December 31, 2006 will be realized based on our expected future reversals of certain deferred tax liabilities. We have a net deferred tax liability recorded in our balance sheet that consists primarily of indefinite
lived intangible assets that are not deductible for tax purposes and therefore cannot be used to realize additional reversing deferred tax assets. In accordance with SFAS No. 109, our remaining noncurrent deferred tax liabilities are netted
with our noncurrent deferred tax assets and are presented as a single amount in our consolidated balance sheet.

Worldwide net operating loss carryforwards totaled approximately $479.5 million at December 31,
2006, comprised of $456.6 million domestic net operating loss carryforwards and $22.9 million of international net operating loss carryforwards. These carryforwards are available to offset taxable income through 2026 and will start to expire in
2011. Of these carryforwards, $208.1 million relates to acquired CyberGuard net operating losses, $59.6 million relates to acquired N2H2 net operating losses, and $19.4 million relates to acquired CipherTrust net operating losses. We have provided a
complete valuation allowance on primarily all of these acquired losses, and upon release of the valuation allowance, a portion of the benefit will go to the balance sheet to reduce goodwill instead of a benefit to the income tax provision. As of
December 31, 2006 we have deducted $56.8 million related to stock option exercises. The tax benefit in excess of book expense from these stock option exercises will be recorded as an increase to additional paid-in capital upon utilization
of the net operating losses under the financial statement approach to recognizing the tax benefits associated with stock option deductions. Of the remaining benefit associated with the carryforwards, approximately $111.3 million has yet to be
recognized in the consolidated statement of operations. However, we cannot be certain that the tax benefit of these carryforwards will be available to offset future income tax expense when taxable income is realized.

Estimates were used in the determination of our provision for income taxes, current income taxes payable, as well as in our deferred tax asset and
liability analysis. These estimates take into account current tax laws and our interpretation of these current tax laws within the various taxing jurisdictions within which we operate. Changes in the tax laws or our interpretation of tax laws and
the resolution of future audits could impact our provision for income taxes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our cash and cash equivalents increased by $3.9 million from $8.2 million at December 31, 2006 to $12.1 million at December 31, 2007. For the
twelve months ended December 31, 2007 we generated $52.0 million from operating activities and $9.4 million from the exercise of stock options and the sale of common stock through our ESPP, which we used to make $44.0 million in principal
payments on our term debt and $12.0 million in capital purchases.

Net cash provided by operating activities of $52.0 million for the
twelve months ended December 31, 2007, was generated by our net loss adjusted for non-cash expenses and our billings outpacing our operating expenses. Terms for cash collections received from customers and cash payments made to vendors were
consistent with normal business practices. Cash provided by operations was used to make accelerated payments on our term debt during the year.

Net cash used in investing activities of $14.6 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2007, consisted mainly of $12.0 million for capital additions, which were primarily for computer equipment, technology upgrades and
customer evaluation appliances and $1.7 million for capitalized software development costs and patents.

Net cash used in financing
activities of $34.6 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2007 consisted primarily of principal payments made on our term debt of $44.0 million offset by $9.4 million in proceeds related to the exercise of stock options and sale of
common stock through our ESPP.

We anticipate using available cash to fund growth in operations, invest in capital equipment and leasehold
improvements, acquire businesses, repurchase shares of common stock, license technology or products related to our line of business, and make additional payments on our term debt. We expect to spend approximately $12.0 million on capital
expenditures in 2008 and $2.5 million on customer evaluation equipment. Of the $12.0 million, $2.5 million is related to capital expenditures for the expansion of our St. Paul, MN facility.

We have excluded our FIN 48 liabilities from the table above because we are unable to make a
reasonably reliable estimate of the period of cash settlement with the respective taxing authorities. In addition, there were no contractual purchase obligations outstanding as of December 31, 2007.

We believe that we have sufficient financial resources available to fund our current working capital and capital expenditure requirements for at least
the next twelve months. In addition to the cash on hand, we have a $20.0 million revolving credit facility available pursuant to a credit facility agreement with a syndicate of banks led by Citigroup and UBS Investment Bank. We intend to utilize the
funds available through the credit facility for general working capital and ongoing corporate purposes as deemed necessary. At December 31, 2007 there are no borrowings outstanding on this credit facility.

Our credit facility agreement contains various covenants including limitations on additional indebtedness, capital expenditures, restricted payments, the
incurrence of liens, transactions with affiliates and sales of assets. In addition, the credit facility requires us to comply with certain financial covenants on a quarterly basis, including maintaining leverage and interest coverage ratios and
capital expenditure limitations. We are in compliance with all covenants as of December 31, 2007.

Disclosures about Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as of December 31, 2007 or 2006.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our
discussion of the financial condition and results of operations are based upon the consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of our financial
statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of any contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements. Management regularly reviews its estimates and assumptions, which are based on historical factors and other factors that are believed to be relevant under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different
assumptions, estimates, or conditions.

Critical accounting policies are defined as those that are reflective of significant judgments and
uncertainties, and potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. See Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional discussion of the application of these and other accounting
policies.

Revenue Recognition.    We derive our revenue primarily from two sources: (i) sales of products,
including hardware, subscriptions, software licenses, and royalties and (ii) sales of services, including maintenance arrangements to provide upgrades and customer support, professional services, and contracted development work. We recognize
revenue in accordance with Statement of Position (SOP) 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, as modified by SOP 98-9. Revenue from products is recognized when persuasive evidence of an



38



---

arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed and determinable, and collection is probable. Subscription-based contracts are generally for 12,
24 or 36 months in duration. Subscription revenue along with maintenance revenue for providing product upgrades and customer support are deferred and recognized ratably over the service period beginning with the month the subscription or service
begins.

When arrangements contain multiple elements and VSOE of fair value exists for all undelivered elements, we recognize revenue for
the delivered elements using the residual method. For arrangements containing multiple elements where VSOE of fair value does not exist for all undelivered elements, we defer revenue for the delivered and undelivered elements and then recognize
revenue on all elements over the service period. In instances where an entire arrangement is deferred due to lack of VSOE of fair value on an undelivered element, the revenue recognized over the service period is identified as other revenue on the
consolidated statements of operations because we are unable to allocate the value of the arrangement between products and services revenue. We also identify costs (primarily hardware component costs) that are directly associated with product
revenues that have been deferred due to lack of VSOE of fair value on an undelivered element. We defer these costs at the time of shipment and recognize them as cost of revenues in proportion to the product revenue as it is recognized over the
service period. These costs are identified as other cost of revenues on the consolidated statement of operations.

We sell our products
either directly to an end-user, or indirectly through our channel of resellers and distributors (our channel partners). When selling through our channel we require our channel partners to provide evidence of end-user sell-through. If we
are unable to obtain end-user sell-through evidence at the time we fulfill the order from a channel partner, we do not recognize revenue until the channel partner supplies end-user sell-through information, the product has been shipped, and all
other criteria of SOP 97-2 have been met, with the exception of sales to our distributors who stock our SnapGear product line. We recognize revenue, net of estimated returns, upon shipment of our SnapGear product line as we have sufficient return
history to establish a reserve and we are not able to receive end-user evidence due to the high-volume sales of this low-price point product.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts.    We make estimates regarding the collectibility of our accounts receivables. When we evaluate the adequacy of our allowance for doubtful accounts, we consider multiple factors
including historical write-off experience, the need for specific customer reserves, the aging of our receivables, customer creditworthiness, changes in our customer payment cycles, and current economic trends. Historically, our allowance for
doubtful accounts has been adequate based on actual results. If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.

Business Combinations.    When we acquire businesses, we allocate the purchase price to tangible assets and liabilities and
identifiable intangible assets acquired. Any residual purchase price is recorded as goodwill. The allocation of the purchase price requires management to make significant estimates in determining the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities
assumed, especially with respect to intangible assets. These estimates are based on historical experience and information obtained from the management of the acquired companies. These estimates can include, but are not limited to, the cash flows
that an asset is expected to generate in the future, the appropriate weighted average cost of capital, and the cost savings expected to be derived from acquiring an asset. These estimates are inherently uncertain and unpredictable. In addition,
unanticipated events and circumstances may occur which may affect the accuracy or validity of such estimates.

We assess the impairment of
goodwill annually, or more often if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. We evaluate goodwill for impairment by comparing the fair value of our reporting unit to its carrying value, including
the goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. To determine our reporting units fair value in the current year evaluation, we used a valuation technique based on multiples of revenue. If managements estimates of future operating results
change or if there are changes to other assumptions, the estimate of the fair value of our goodwill could change significantly. Such change could result in goodwill impairment charges in future periods, which could have a significant impact on our
consolidated financial statements.



39



---

We assess the impairment of acquired developed technology and other identifiable intangible assets
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an assets carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss would be recognized when the sum of the estimated future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and
its eventual disposition is less than its carrying amount. Such impairment loss would be measured as the difference between the carrying amount of the asset and its fair value. Our cash flow assumptions are based on historical and forecasted
revenue, operating costs, and other relevant factors. If managements estimates of future operating results change, or if there are changes to other assumptions, the estimate of the fair value of our acquired developed technology and other
identifiable intangible assets could change significantly. Such change could result in impairment charges in future periods, which could have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Income Taxes.    We account for income taxes under SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, which requires
recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in our financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on
the difference between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. SFAS No. 109 requires the consideration of a valuation
allowance for deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that some component or all of the benefits of deferred tax assets will not be realized.

We adopted the provisions of FIN 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an Interpretation of SFAS No. 109 on January 1, 2007. FIN 48 creates a single model to address uncertainty in tax
positions and clarifies the accounting for income taxes by prescribing the minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition,
measurement, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. At the adoption date, January 1, 2007, we did not have a material liability under FIN 48 for unrecognized tax benefits. As a result
of the implementation of FIN 48 we have recognized a liability for unrecognized income tax benefits as of December 31, 2007. Due to an offsetting release in valuation allowance on net operating losses, the liability had minimal impact on our
effective tax rate. Our continuing practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense.

Our company, along with our subsidiaries, is subject to U.S. Federal income tax as well as income tax of multiple state jurisdictions. Generally, tax years from 2004 through the present remain open under the statue of limitations. However,
due to net operating loss carryforwards from prior periods, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) could potentially review the losses generated back to 1989. We are subject to income tax in several foreign jurisdictions which have open tax years
varying by jurisdiction back to 2001.

Share-Based Compensation.    Prior to January 1, 2006, we accounted
for share-based employee compensation plans under the measurement and recognition provisions of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations, as
permitted by SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. Accordingly, we recorded no share-based employee compensation expense for options granted under our current stock option plans during the year ended
December 31, 2005 as all options granted under those plans had exercise prices equal to the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant. We also recorded no compensation expense in those periods in connection with our ESPP as the
purchase price of the stock was not less than 85% of the lower of the fair market value of our common stock at the beginning of each offering period or at the end of each purchase period. In accordance with SFAS No. 123 and SFAS No. 148,
Accounting for Stock-Based CompensationTransition and Disclosure, we provided pro forma net income and net income per share disclosures for each period prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R), as if we had applied the fair
value-based method in measuring compensation expense for our share-based compensation plans.

Effective January 1, 2006, we adopted
the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123(R), using the modified prospective transition method. Under that transition method, we recognized compensation expense for share-based payments that vested during the year ended
December 31, 2006 using the following valuation



40



---

methods: (a) for share-based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of, January 1, 2006, the grant date fair value was estimated in
accordance with the original provisions of SFAS No. 123, and (b) for share-based payments granted on or after January 1, 2006, the grant date fair value was estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R). Because
we elected to use the modified prospective transition method, results for prior periods have not been restated. In March 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 107, Share-Based
Payment, which provides supplemental implementation guidance for SFAS No. 123(R). We have applied the provisions of SAB No. 107 in our adoption of SFAS No. 123(R). We estimate the fair value of stock options granted and the
discount offered through our ESPP using the Black Scholes model, which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions. See Note 10 for information on the impact of our adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) and the assumptions we use to calculate the
fair value of share-based employee compensation. In addition, we began offering restricted stock awards in 2006 along with restricted stock units in 2007and we intend to continue to do so in the future.

Inflation

To date, we have not been significantly
affected by inflation.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. SFAS No. 157 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, clarifies the
definition of fair value within that framework, and expands disclosures about the use of fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is intended to increase consistency and comparability among fair value estimates used in financial reporting. As
such, SFAS No. 157 applies to all other accounting pronouncements that require (or permit) fair value measurements, except for the measurement of share-based payments. SFAS No. 157 does not apply to accounting standards that require (or
permit) measurements that are similar to, but not intended to represent, fair value. Fair value, as defined in SFAS No. 157, is the price to sell an asset or transfer a liability and therefore represents an exit price, not an entry price. The
exit price is the price in the principal market in which the reporting entity would transact. Further, that price is not adjusted for transaction costs. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and
interim periods within those fiscal years except for certain nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities which have been deferred one year. SFAS No. 157 will be applied prospectively as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which it is
initially applied. We are currently assessing the impact of adoption of SFAS No. 157.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS
No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. SFAS No. 159 allows entities to voluntarily choose, at specified election dates, to measure many financial assets and financial liabilities at fair
value. The election is made on an instrument-by-instrument basis and is irrevocable. If the fair value option is elected for an instrument, SFAS No. 159 specifies that all subsequent changes in fair value for that instrument shall be reported
in earnings. SFAS No. 159 is effective as of the beginning of an entitys first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. We do not anticipate a material impact upon adoption of SFAS No. 159.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), Business Combinations. SFAS No. 141(R) establishes principles and requirements
for determining how an enterprise recognizes and measures the fair value of certain assets and liabilities acquired in a business combination, including noncontrolling interests, contingent consideration, in-process research and development and
certain acquired contingencies. SFAS No. 141(R) requires acquisition-related transaction expenses and restructuring costs be expensed as incurred rather than capitalized as a component of the business combination. In addition, under SFAS
No. 141(R), changes in an acquired entitys deferred tax assets and uncertain tax positions after the measurement period will impact income tax expense. Following the adoption of SFAS No. 141(R) any change in an acquisition-related
valuation allowance will be reversed to income tax expense rather than goodwill. SFAS No. 141(R) is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008. This standard will change our accounting treatment for business
combinations on a prospective basis, when adopted.

ITEM 7A.    QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We develop
products in the U.S., Australia, and Germany and sell them worldwide. As a result, our financial results could be affected by factors such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates or weak economic conditions in foreign markets. Since our sales
are currently priced in U.S. dollars, a strengthening of the dollar could make our products less competitive in foreign markets and our accounts receivable more difficult to collect.

We believe that our international entities are subject to risks typical of any international entity, including, but not limited to: differing economic
conditions, changes in political climate, differing tax structures, other regulations and restrictions, and foreign exchange rate volatility. Accordingly, our future results could be materially adversely impacted by changes in these or other
factors.

We are exposed to market risk from changes in the interest rates on certain outstanding debt. As of December 31, 2007, we
had $44.0 million of outstanding indebtedness. Of this indebtedness, approximately $24.0 million bears interest at rates that fluctuate with changes in certain prevailing interest rates.

We also hold an equity interest in a privately held technology company. This investment was recorded at cost and is reported in other assets on our
consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 2007 this investment had a carrying value of $3.2 million.

ITEM 9A.    CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and
Procedures

Management of our company is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective disclosure controls and procedures, as
defined under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. At December 31, 2007, an evaluation was performed, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and
Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of December 31, 2007, our
disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K was recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period
required by the Securities and Exchange Commissions rules and forms and accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

During the quarter ended December 31, 2007, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal
control over financial reporting except for the remediation of the material weakness described below.

Managements Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes
in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Internal control over financial reporting includes those written policies and procedures that:



| |  |  | pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | provide reasonable assurance that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorization of our management and directors; and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of assets that could have a material effect on
the consolidated financial statements.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Internal control over financial reporting includes the controls themselves,
monitoring and internal auditing practices and actions taken to correct deficiencies as identified.

Because of its inherent limitations,
internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in
conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

A material weakness in internal control over
financial reporting is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Companys annual or interim financial statements
will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial
reporting as of December 31, 2007. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework. Managements
assessment included an evaluation of the design of our internal control over financial reporting and testing of the operational effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting. Management reviewed the results of its assessment with
the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors.

As of December 31, 2007, management concluded that the Companys system of
internal control over financial reporting was effective based on the criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework.

Our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007 has been audited by Ernst & Young LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report included on page 78.

Remediation of Material Weakness in Accounting for Income Taxes in 2006

In 2006 we experienced an increased level of complexity in our accounting for income taxes as the result of the CyberGuard and CipherTrust acquisitions
which occurred during the year. As a result of this increased complexity we have engaged our outside tax consultants to assist in the review of our tax provision in order for us to have effective review controls over our accounting for income taxes.
The review of our tax provision workpapers for the period ended December 31, 2006 was ineffective and the review by our outside tax consultants did not occur, resulting in a material weakness. To remediate the identified material weakness,
management ensured that the appropriate levels of review by management and the involvement of outside tax consultants took place in a timely manner for the year ended December 31, 2007.

|NOTE: | For certain multiple-element arrangements we are unable to establish vendor specific objective evidence (VSOE) of fair value for the undelivered bundled elements and therefore are
unable to allocate the value of the arrangement between Products and Services Revenue and have reported these revenues and corresponding cost of revenues as Other.

SECURE COMPUTING CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



|1. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
|-- | ------------------------------------------

Organization

Secure Computing Corporation is a global leader in enterprise gateway security. Founded in 1989, we have been securing the connections
between people and information for nearly 20 years. We use our broad expertise in security technology to develop enterprise gateway security solutions that allow organizations to exchange critical information safely with their customers, partners
and employees using trusted connections. Specializing in delivering enterprise-class solutions that secure Web, email, and network connectivity, we are proud to be the global security solutions provider to some of the most mission-critical network
environments in the world.

Basis of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Secure Computing and our wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial
statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.

Revenue Recognition

We derive our revenue primarily from two sources: (i) sales of products, including hardware, subscriptions, software licenses, and royalties and (ii) sales of services, including maintenance arrangements to provide upgrades and
customer support, professional services, and contracted development work. We recognize revenue in accordance with Statement of Position (SOP) 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, as modified by SOP 98-9. Revenue from products is
recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed and determinable, and collection is probable. Subscription-based contracts are generally for 12, 24 or 36 months in duration. Subscription revenue
along with maintenance revenue for providing product upgrades and customer support are deferred and recognized ratably over the service period beginning with the month the subscription or service begins.

When arrangements contain multiple elements and vendor specific objective evidence (VSOE) of fair value exists for all undelivered elements, we recognize
revenue for the delivered elements using the residual method. For arrangements containing multiple elements where VSOE of fair value does not exist for all undelivered elements, we defer revenue for the delivered and undelivered elements and then
recognize revenue on all elements over the service period. In instances where an entire arrangement is deferred due to lack of VSOE of fair value on an undelivered element, the revenue recognized over the service period is identified as other
revenue on the consolidated statements of operations because we are unable to allocate the value of the arrangement between products and services revenue. We also identify costs (primarily hardware component costs) that are directly associated with
product revenues that have been deferred due to lack of VSOE of fair value on an undelivered element. We defer these costs at the time of shipment and recognize them as cost of sales in proportion to the product revenue as it is recognized over the
service period. These costs are identified as other cost of revenues on the consolidated statement of operations.

We sell our products
either directly to an end-user, or indirectly through our channel of resellers and distributors (our channel partners). When selling through our channel we require our channel partners to provide evidence of end-user sell-through. If we
are unable to obtain end-user sell-through evidence at the time we fulfill



54



---

the order from a channel partner, we do not recognize revenue until the channel partner supplies end-user sell-through information, the product has been
shipped, and all other criteria of SOP 97-2 have been met, with the exception of sales to our distributors who stock our SnapGear product line. We recognize revenue, net of estimated returns, upon shipment of our SnapGear product line as we have
sufficient return history to establish a reserve and we are not able to receive end-user evidence due to the high-volume sales of this low-price point product.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

We consider investments in instruments purchased with an original maturity of 90 days or less at
the date of acquisition, to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates fair value.

Derivative Instrument

In September 2006, we entered into an interest rate cap agreement which is required to be accounted for under Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. SFAS No. 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments
embedded in other contracts and for hedging activities. It requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure those instruments at fair value. If certain conditions
are met, a derivative may be specifically designated as (a) a hedge of the exposure to changes in the fair value of a recognized asset or liability or an unrecognized firm commitment, (b) a hedge of the exposure to variable cash flows of a
forecasted transaction, or (c) a hedge of the foreign currency exposure of a net investment in a foreign operation, an unrecognized firm commitment, an available-for-sale security, or a foreign-currency-denominated forecasted transaction. Our
interest rate cap agreement applies to (b), referred to as a cash flow hedge. For a derivative that is designated as a cash flow hedge the effective portion of the derivatives gain or loss is initially reported as a component of other
comprehensive income or loss (see Comprehensive Loss below) and subsequently reclassified into earnings when the forecasted transaction affects earnings. The ineffective portion of the gain or loss is immediately recognized in income.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts
receivable are initially recorded at fair value upon the sale of products or services to our customers. We make estimates regarding the collectibility of our accounts receivables which we use to record a provision for doubtful accounts. When we
evaluate the adequacy of our allowance for doubtful accounts, we consider multiple factors including historical write-off experience, the need for specific customer reserves, the aging of our receivables, customer creditworthiness, changes in our
customer payment cycles, and current economic trends. The provision for doubtful accounts is included in selling and marketing expense on the consolidated statement of operations. If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate,
resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.

Equity Investments

We have an equity investment in a privately held company for business and strategic purposes. This investment is included in other assets on our
consolidated balance sheets and is accounted for under the cost method as we do not have significant influence over the investee. Under the cost method, the investment is recorded at its initial cost and is periodically reviewed for impairment. Each
quarter we assess our compliance with accounting guidance, including the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. (FIN) 46R, Consolidation of Variable Interest EntitiesAn Interpretation of ARB
No. 51, and any impairment issues. Under FIN 46R, we must consolidate a variable interest entity if we have a variable interest (or combination of variable interests) in the entity that will absorb a majority of the entitys expected
losses, receive a majority of the entitys expected residual returns, or both. Currently, our equity investment is not subject to consolidation under FIN 46R as we do not have significant influence over this investee and we do not receive a
majority of the losses or returns. During our review for impairment, we examine the investees actual and forecasted operating results, financial position, and liquidity, as well as business/industry factors in assessing whether a decline in
value of an equity investment has occurred that is other-than-temporary. When such a decline in value is identified, the fair value of the equity investment is estimated based on the preceding factors



55



---

and an impairment loss is recognized in interest and other (expense)/income in the consolidated statements of operations. During the years ended
December 31, 2007 and 2006, we did not recognize an impairment loss on our equity investment.

Inventories

Inventories consist mainly of purchased components and prepaid licenses and are valued at the lower of cost or market using the first-in, first-out (FIFO)
method.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are carried at cost. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives are 2 years for customer evaluation units, 3 years for computer equipment and software, and 7 years for furniture
and fixtures. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the lesser of the useful life of the asset or the term of the lease.

Financial Instruments

Carrying amounts of financial instruments held by us, which include cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts
payable and accrued expenses, approximate fair value due to their short-term nature. In the case of our long-term debt, the carrying value of the debt approximates its fair value due to the fact that it is variable-rate debt that reprices
frequently. In addition, our credit standing has not changed significantly.

Other Current Assets and Other Assets

Other current assets are carried at cost and consist of unbilled receivables, a derivative instrument, deferred cost of goods sold and prepaid expenses
for items such as directors and officers liability insurance, trade shows, royalties, inventory components and foreign taxes to be either expensed or collected within 12 months. Other assets are carried at cost and include a strategic equity
investment (see Note 16), rent deposits, and deferred cost of goods sold to be collected or expensed after 12 months.

Income Taxes

We account for income taxes under SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, which requires recognition of deferred tax liabilities and
assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in our financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between the financial
statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. SFAS No. 109 requires the consideration of a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets if it
is more likely than not that some component or all of the benefits of deferred tax assets will not be realized.

We adopted the
provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 48 (FIN 48), Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an Interpretation of SFAS No. 109 on January 1, 2007. FIN 48 creates a single model to address
uncertainty in tax positions and clarifies the accounting for income taxes by prescribing the minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. FIN 48 also provides guidance on
derecognition, measurement, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. At the adoption date, January 1, 2007, we did not have a material liability under FIN 48 for unrecognized tax
benefits. As a result of the implementation of FIN 48 we have recognized a liability for unrecognized income tax benefits as of December 31, 2007. Due to an offsetting release in valuation allowance on net operating losses (NOL), the liability
had minimal impact on our effective tax rate. Our continuing practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense.



56



---

Our company, along with our subsidiaries, is subject to U.S. Federal income tax as well as income tax of
multiple state jurisdictions. Generally, tax years from 2004 through the present remain open under the statue of limitations. However, due to net operating loss carryforwards from prior periods, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) could potentially
review the losses generated back to 1989. We are subject to income tax in several foreign jurisdictions which have open tax years varying by jurisdiction back to 2001. We do not expect the amount of unrecognized tax benefits to significantly change
within the next 12 months.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Intangible assets consist of patents, trademarks, capitalized software development costs, purchased customer lists, purchased tradenames, capitalized developed technology and goodwill, all of which are recorded at
cost. Patents, trademarks, tradenames, and capitalized developed technology are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range up to 17 years. Customer lists are amortized on an accelerated basis
based on an attrition rate driven by the estimated revenue stream from acquired customers over a five year period. See accounting policy of capitalized software development costs below under Research and Development.

Goodwill is not amortized, but is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level at least annually. If impairment is indicated, a write-down is
recorded as an impairment loss in income from operations. An impairment charge is recognized only when the calculated fair value of a reporting unit, including goodwill, is less than its carrying amount. In accordance with SFAS No. 142,
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, we completed the required annual impairment tests of goodwill during the fourth quarter of 2007 and 2006 and determined the fair value to be in excess of the carrying value of these assets.
Therefore, goodwill was not impaired and no impairment charge was reported.

Long-Lived Assets

We review our long-lived assets and identified finite-lived intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable, except for goodwill as noted above. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to undiscounted future net cash flows expected to be
generated by the assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. There were no such impairments during
the periods presented.

Accrued Expenses

At December 31, 2007 and 2006, accrued expenses consisted of costs related to professional fees, royalties, foreign taxes, severance and accrued marketing development funds.

Leases and Deferred Rent

We lease all of our office
space. Leases are accounted for under the provisions of SFAS No. 13, Accounting for Leases, as amended, which requires that leases be evaluated and classified as operating or capital leases for financial reporting purposes. As of
December 31, 2007, all of our leases were accounted for as operating leases. For leases that contain rent escalations, we record the total rent payable during the lease term, as determined above, on a straight-line basis over the term of the
lease and record the difference between the rents paid and the straight-line rent as a deferred rent.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of accounts receivable. We perform ongoing credit
evaluations of our customers, generally require customers to prepay for maintenance and maintain reserves for potential losses. Our customer base is primarily composed of businesses throughout the U.S., Europe, the Middle East, Japan, China, the
Pacific Rim, and Latin America.



57



---

Interest Rate Risk

We have market risk exposure to changing interest rates primarily as a result of our borrowing activities. Our objective in managing our exposure to changes in interest rates is to reduce fluctuations in earnings and
cash flows. To achieve these objectives, we use a derivative instrument, such as our interest rate cap agreement (see Note 6), to manage risk exposures when appropriate, based on market conditions. We do not enter into derivative agreements for
trading or other speculative purposes, nor are we a party to any leveraged derivative instrument.

Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions

Foreign assets and liabilities were translated using the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Results of operations were
translated using average exchange rates throughout the year. Translation gains or losses have been reported in other comprehensive (loss)/income as a component of stockholders equity. Cumulative foreign currency translation loss balances were
$1.1 million and $2.3 million at December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Any gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in the consolidated statements of operations and are not significant during the periods
presented.

Comprehensive (Loss)/Income

The components of our comprehensive (loss)/income are net (loss)/income, foreign currency translation adjustments, and the change in fair market values of our investments and interest rate hedge. Comprehensive (loss)/income for all periods
presented is included in our consolidated statements of stockholders equity.

Selling and Marketing

Selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries, commissions, share-based compensation and benefits related to personnel engaged in selling
and marketing functions, along with costs related to advertising, promotions, and public relations. Our customer support function, which provides support, training and installation services, is also responsible for supporting our sales
representatives and sales engineers throughout the sales cycle by providing them and our prospective customers with technical assistance and, as such, a portion of these costs are included as selling and marketing expense.

Research and Development

Research and development
expenditures are charged to operations as incurred. SFAS No. 86, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed, requires capitalization of certain software development costs subsequent to
the establishment of technological feasibility. Based on our product development process, technological feasibility is established upon completion of a working model. Costs that we incur between completion of the working model and the point at which
the product is generally available for sale are capitalized and amortized over their estimated useful life of three years.

Share-Based Compensation

Prior to January 1, 2006, we accounted for share-based employee compensation plans under the measurement and recognition
provisions of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations, as permitted by SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.
Accordingly, we recorded no share-based employee compensation expense for options granted under our current stock option plans during the year ended December 31, 2005 as all options granted under those plans had exercise prices equal to the
fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant. We also recorded no compensation expense in those periods in connection with our Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP) as the purchase price of the stock was not less than 85% of the lower of
the fair market value of our common stock at the beginning of each offering period or at the end of each purchase period. In



58



---

accordance with SFAS No. 123 and SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based CompensationTransition and Disclosure, we provided pro
forma net income and net income per share disclosures for each period prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, as if we had applied the fair value-based method in measuring compensation expense for our
share-based compensation plans.

Effective January 1, 2006, we adopted the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123(R),
using the modified prospective transition method. Under that transition method, we recognized compensation expense for share-based payments that vested during 2006 using the following valuation methods: (a) for share-based payments granted
prior to, but not yet vested as of, January 1, 2006, the grant date fair value was estimated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS No. 123, and (b) for share-based payments granted on or after January 1, 2006, the
grant date fair value was estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R). Because we elected to use the modified prospective transition method, results for prior periods have not been restated. In March 2005, the Securities
and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 107, Share-Based Payment, which provides supplemental implementation guidance for SFAS No. 123(R). We have applied the provisions of SAB No. 107 in
our adoption of SFAS No. 123(R). See Note 10 for information on the impact of our adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) and the assumptions we use to calculate the fair value of share-based compensation.

Net (Loss)/Income Per Share

In accordance with SFAS
No. 128, Earnings Per Share, basic net (loss)/income per share is computed by dividing net (loss)/income applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net
loss per share is computed by dividing net loss applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the combination of
dilutive common share equivalents, which consist of stock options, and the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.

Recently Issued
Accounting Standards

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. SFAS No. 157
establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, clarifies the definition of fair value within that framework, and expands disclosures about the use of fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is
intended to increase consistency and comparability among fair value estimates used in financial reporting. As such, SFAS No. 157 applies to all other accounting pronouncements that require (or permit) fair value measurements, except for the
measurement of share-based payments. SFAS No. 157 does not apply to accounting standards that require (or permit) measurements that are similar to, but not intended to represent, fair value. Fair value, as defined in SFAS No. 157, is the
price to sell an asset or transfer a liability and therefore represents an exit price, not an entry price. The exit price is the price in the principal market in which the reporting entity would transact. Further, that price is not adjusted for
transaction costs. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. SFAS No. 157 will be applied prospectively as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which
it is initially applied. We are currently assessing the impact of adoption of SFAS No. 157.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS
No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. SFAS No. 159 allows entities to voluntarily choose, at specified election dates, to measure many financial assets and financial liabilities at fair
value. The election is made on an instrument-by-instrument basis and is irrevocable. If the fair value option is elected for an instrument, SFAS No. 159 specifies that all subsequent changes in fair value for that instrument shall be reported
in earnings. SFAS No. 159 is effective as of the beginning of an entitys first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. We do not anticipate a material impact upon adoption of SFAS No. 159.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), Business Combinations. SFAS No. 141(R) establishes principles and requirements
for determining how an enterprise recognizes and measures the fair value



59



---

of certain assets and liabilities acquired in a business combination, including noncontrolling interests, contingent consideration, in-process research and
development and certain acquired contingencies. SFAS No. 141(R) requires acquisition-related transaction expenses and restructuring costs be expensed as incurred rather than capitalized as a component of the business combination. In addition,
under SFAS No. 141(R), changes in an acquired entitys deferred tax assets and uncertain tax positions after the measurement period will impact income tax expense. Following the adoption of SFAS No. 141(R) any change in an
acquisition-related valuation allowance will be reversed to income tax expense rather than goodwill. SFAS No. 141(R) is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008. This standard will change our accounting treatment
for business combinations on a prospective basis, when adopted.



|2. | Acquisition of CipherTrust
|-- | --------------------------

On August 31,
2006, we acquired 100% of the outstanding common shares of CipherTrust, Inc., a privately-held company. CipherTrusts products provide innovative layered security solutions to stop inbound messaging threats such as spam, viruses, intrusions and
phishing, and protect against outbound policy and compliance violations associated with sensitive data leakage. CipherTrusts product line includes IronMail, powered by TrustedSource, IronIM, IronMail Edge, IronNet, and RADAR. As a result of
the acquisition we have positioned ourselves as a leader in the Mail Gateway Security market. In addition to protecting corporate network infrastructures, our combined solutions address the fast-growing Web and Mail Gateway Security needs.

The aggregate purchase price was $270.1 million consisting primarily of $188.1 million in cash, the issuance of 10.0 million shares
of common stock valued at $68.1 million, the conversion of outstanding CipherTrust stock options into options to purchase 2.5 million shares of our common stock with a fair value of $7.8 million, and direct costs of the acquisition of $6.1
million. The value of the common shares issued was determined based on the average market price of our common shares over the period including two days before and two days after the date that the terms of the acquisition were agreed to and
announced. We financed $90.0 million of the CipherTrust acquisition through debt financing obtained from a syndicate of banks led by Citigroup and UBS Investment Bank. See Note 6 for details on the debt financing.

The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting, and accordingly, the assets and liabilities acquired were recorded at their
estimated fair values at the effective date of the acquisition and the results of operations have been included in the consolidated statements of operations since the acquisition date. In accordance with SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets, goodwill and indefinite lived trademarks recorded as a result of the acquisition will be subject to an annual impairment test and will not be amortized.

future.



|3. | Acquisition of CyberGuard
|-- | -------------------------

On January 12,
2006, we acquired 100% of the outstanding common shares of CyberGuard Corporation. CyberGuard provided network security solutions designed to protect enterprises that use the Internet for electronic commerce and secure communication.
CyberGuards products included firewall, Virtual Private Network (VPN), secure content management and security management technologies. This acquisition strengthened our position as one of the market leaders in network gateway security and
strengthens our position in the web gateway security space. Additionally, we now have a larger presence in the Global 5000 enterprise markets as well as the U.S. federal government.

The aggregate purchase price was $310.7 million consisting of the issuance of 16.3 million shares of
common stock valued at $188.5 million, $2.73 in cash issued for each outstanding share of CyberGuard common stock valued at $88.9 million, the conversion of outstanding CyberGuard stock options into options to purchase 3.0 million shares of our
common stock with a value of $29.3 million and direct costs of the acquisition of $4.0 million. The value of the common shares issued was determined based on the average market price of our common shares over the period including two days before and
two days after the date that the terms of the acquisition were agreed to and announced. We financed $70.0 million of the CyberGuard acquisition through the issuance of preferred equity securities. See Note 7 for details on the equity financing.

The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting, and accordingly, the assets and liabilities acquired were
recorded at their estimated fair values at the effective date of the acquisition and the results of operations have been included in the consolidated statements of operations since the acquisition date. In accordance with SFAS No. 142, goodwill
and indefinite lived trademarks recorded as a result of the acquisition will be subject to an annual impairment test and will not be amortized.

Total amortization expense was $19.4 million, $17.0 million, and $881,000 for the years ended
December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Of the total amortization expense, $400,000, $187,000, and $156,000 pertained to capitalized software development costs for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005, respectively.
Estimated amortization expense for each of the five succeeding fiscal years based on current intangible assets is expected to be $17.1 million, $14.9 million, $9.5 million, $1.4 million, and $62,000 respectively.

We had no outstanding amounts on either the revolving credit facility or the swingline loan
sub-facility as of December 31, 2007 and 2006.

Senior Secured Credit Facility

On August 31, 2006, we entered into a senior secured credit facility with a syndicate of banks led by Citigroup and UBS Investment Bank. The credit
facility provides for a $90.0 million term loan facility, a $20.0 million revolving credit facility, and a swingline loan sub-facility. The proceeds from this transaction were used to finance a portion of the CipherTrust acquisition as noted in Note
2 above. The term loan matures on August 31, 2013 and requires 27 scheduled minimum quarterly installments of $225,000 beginning in December 2006 with a final payment of $83.9 million due at maturity. However, we have been making accelerated
payments on the debt with excess cash from operations. Interest is payable quarterly on the term loan at the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) +3.00%. The interest rate on the term loan may be adjusted quarterly based on our Leverage
Ratio and range from LIBOR +3.25% to LIBOR +3.00%. The interest rate in effect as of December 31, 2007 was 7.95%. Including amortization of deferred financing fees, we incurred $6.6 million and $2.9 million of interest expense in 2007 and 2006,
respectively. Our future payment obligations under this term loan are as follows (in thousands):

The revolving credit facility matures on August 31, 2012 with interest payable quarterly at LIBOR +
2.75%. The interest rate on the revolving credit facility may be adjusted quarterly based on our Leverage Ratio and range from LIBOR +3.25% to LIBOR +2.75%. The revolving credit facility also requires that we pay an annual commitment fee of .375%.
The annual commitment fee, based on our Leverage Ratio and ranging from .5% to .375%, is payable quarterly in arrears. The Leverage Ratio is defined as the ratio of (a) consolidated indebtedness to (b) consolidated adjusted EBITDA
(earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and other adjustments as defined in the agreement). The Leverage Ratio will be calculated quarterly on a pro forma basis that includes the four preceding quarters. The initial Leverage
Ratio calculation will be as of December 31, 2006 and cannot exceed the following thresholds over the term of the loan: August 31, 2006 through December 31, 2006  4.75 to 1.00; First six months of Fiscal 20074.00 to 1.00;
Last six months of Fiscal 20073.50 to 1.00; Fiscal 20082.50 to 1.0; Fiscal 20092.25 to 1.00; Fiscal 2010 through maturity2.00 to 1.00.

The obligations under the senior secured credit facility are guaranteed by us and are secured by a perfected security interest in substantially all of our assets. Financing fees incurred in connection with the credit
facility were deferred and are included as a reduction to our long-term debt. These fees are being amortized to interest expense over the term of the term loan using the effective interest rate method.

Debt Covenants

The credit facility agreement
contains various covenants including limitations on additional indebtedness, restricted payments, the incurrence of liens, transactions with affiliates and sales of assets. In addition, the credit facility requires us to comply with certain
quarterly financial covenants, including maintaining leverage and interest coverage ratios and capital expenditure limitations. We are in compliance with all covenants as of December 31, 2007.

Derivative Instrument

We entered into a
3-month LIBOR interest rate cap agreement to cap the interest rate at 5.5% on $60.0 million, or approximately 67% of the aggregate term loan on September 30, 2006. The notional amount of the agreement has been decreasing $10.0 million each
quarter which started March 30, 2007. As of December 31, 2007, the notional amount of the agreement is $20.0 million, or approximately 45% of the aggregate term loan balance. The agreement terminates on June 30, 2008. The interest
rate cap agreement is designated as a cash flow hedge and is reflected at fair value in our consolidated balance sheet. The related gains or losses on this contract are reflected in stockholders equity as a component of other comprehensive
(loss)/income. However, to the extent that this contract is not considered to be perfectly effective in offsetting the change in the value of the item being hedged, any change in fair value relating to the ineffective portion of this contract will
be immediately recognized in income. The unrealized gain on the interest rate cap agreement is $13 and $19,000 as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.



|7. | Equity Financing
|-- | ----------------

On January 12, 2006, we
received from Warburg Pincus Private Equity IX, L.P., a global private equity fund, $70.0 million in gross proceeds from the issuance of 700,000 of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the preferred stock), a warrant to acquire 1.0 million
shares of our common stock and election of a member to our Board of Directors. Based on the quoted market price of $14.40 on January 12, 2006 and the fair value of the warrant as determined using the Black-Scholes model, we valued the preferred
stock at $62.0 million and the warrant at $8.0 million. The proceeds from this transaction were used to finance most of the cash portion of the CyberGuard acquisition as noted in Note 3 above.

On August 31, 2006, the conversion price for the preferred stock was adjusted from the original price of $13.51 to $12.75 per share in accordance
with an anti-dilution adjustment triggered by the CipherTrust acquisition. Holders of our preferred stock will be entitled to receive benefits not available to holders of our

---

common stock. These benefits include, but are not limited to, the following: beginning in July 2010, shares of preferred stock will be entitled to receive
semi-annual dividends, which may be paid in cash or added to the preferred stock liquidation preference equal to 5% of the preferred stock liquidation preference per year and each share of preferred stock has an initial liquidation preference of
$100 which accretes daily at an annual rate of 5%, compounded semi-annually, until July 2010.

On August 31, 2006, the exercise price
for the warrant was adjusted from the original price of $14.74 to $13.85 per share also in accordance with an anti-dilution adjustment triggered by the CipherTrust acquisition. The warrant expires on January 12, 2013. When the market price of
our common stock is above their exercise price, the warrant becomes dilutive and 1.0 million shares are immediately included in the computation of diluted earnings per share as if the warrant is exercised using the treasury stock method.

The preferred stock was initially recorded at $62.0 million, which is a discount of $8.0 million from its initial liquidation value of
$70.0 million due to the fair value of warrants on the effective date. The liquidation value of the preferred stock accretes daily at an annual rate of 5%, compounded semi-annually. This accretion is recorded as a reduction of earnings attributable
to common shareholders ratably for a period of 54 months after date of issuance.

The preferred stock is considered to be contingently
redeemable shares and is classified as temporary equity on our consolidated balance sheets as the change in control of our company is uncertain and because there is a cash feature related to the settlement of the preferred stock upon change of
control.

We incurred a beneficial conversion charge of $12.6 million, which was recorded as a reduction in earnings attributable to common
shareholders in 2006, upon the issuance of the preferred stock since the effective conversion price, after adjusting for the value of the warrants, was less than market price on January 12, 2006, the date of issuance. However, in August 2005
when the terms of the preferred stock issuance to Warburg Pincus in the Securities Purchase Agreement were negotiated, the average market price of the common stock was, in fact, less than the conversion price. As of December 31, 2007 and 2006,
none of the preferred stock had been converted.



|8. | Letters of Credit
|-- | -----------------

As of December 31, 2007, we
have three letter of credit agreements totaling $245,000. One letter of credit for $205,000 as of December 31, 2007 and 2006 is with a bank to secure rental space for our San Jose, CA office and terminates March 31, 2008. Two remaining
letters of credit totaling $40,000 as of December 31, 2007 and 2006 are to secure business with an international customer, which expire May and August 2008.

Description of Plans

2002 Stock Incentive Plan

Under our 2002 Stock Incentive Plan (2002 Plan), we are permitted to grant incentive and non-qualified stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights and other similar types of stock awards, such
as phantom stock rights, to our employees and non-employee directors. There were a total of 8.5 million shares authorized under the 2002 Plan at December 31, 2007. All options granted under the 2002 Plan through December 31, 2007 have
exercise prices equal to the fair market value of our stock on the date of grant. Options granted under the 2002 Plan have ten-year terms and typically vest 25% after the first year and then monthly over the following three years. All awards granted
to non-employee directors vest 100% after the first year. Outstanding awards that were originally granted under several predecessor plans also remain in effect in accordance with their terms. Restricted stock awards vest 25% after the first year,
then quarterly thereafter over the following three years, unless otherwise approved by the Compensation Committee.

1995 Omnibus Stock
Option Plan

In September 1995, our Board of Directors and stockholders approved our 1995 Omnibus Stock Plan. The majority of options
granted under this plan had ten year terms and vested either annually over three years, or fully vested at the end of three years. Beginning in 2003, all new stock options granted under this plan vest 25% after the first year and then monthly over
the following three years. This plan expired in September 2005. As of December 31, 2007, there were 4.7 million options outstanding under this Plan, of which 184,969 were not yet vested.

N2H2 Stock Option Plans

In
connection with our acquisition of N2H2 in October 2003, we assumed all of the outstanding N2H2 stock options under the 1997 Stock Option Plan, 1999 Stock Option Plan, 1999 Non-Employee Director Plan, 1999/2000 Transition Plan, the 2000 Stock Option
Plan, and the Howard Philip Welt Plan, which were converted into options to purchase approximately 420,000 shares of our common stock. All stock options assumed were exercisable and vested. These options were assumed at prices between
$1.55 and $258.63 per share, with a weighted average exercise price of $10.06 per share. The options granted under these plans, since the acquisition, have ten year terms and vest 25% after the first year and then monthly over the following
three years.

CyberGuard Stock Option Plans

In connection with our acquisition of CyberGuard in January 2006, we assumed all of the outstanding CyberGuard stock options under the 1994 and 1998 Stock Option Plans which were converted into options to purchase
3,039,545 shares of our common stock. All outstanding stock options assumed were exercisable and vested. These options were assumed at prices between $1.56 and $15.07 per share, with a weighted average exercise price of $7.21 per share. The options
granted under these plans, since the acquisition, have ten year terms and vest 25% after the first year and then monthly over the following three years.

Secure Computing 2000 Stock Plan (formerly the CipherTrust 2000 Stock Option Plan)

In connection
with our acquisition of CipherTrust in August 2006, we assumed all of the outstanding CipherTrust stock options under the 2000 Stock Option Plan which were converted into 2,543,662 shares of our common stock. All outstanding stock options assumed
were unvested and have seven-year terms. These options were assumed at prices between $0.01 and $6.19 per share, with a weighted average exercise price of $2.88 per share. The options granted under this plan, since the acquisition, have ten year
terms and vest 25% after the first year and then monthly over the following three years.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

We have an employee stock purchase plan (ESPP), which enables employees to contribute up to 10% of their compensation toward the purchase of our common
stock at the end of the participation period at a purchase price equal to 85% of the lower of the fair market value of the common stock on the first or last day of the participation period. For the fourth quarter of 2006 and the first quarter of
2007, the Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee approved to increase the maximum contribution up to 20% of compensation. Common stock reserved for future employee purchases under the plan totals 175,649 shares at December 31, 2007.
Common stock issued under the plan totaled approximately 413,885 in 2007, 278,706 in 2006, and 164,344 in 2005.

Impact of the Adoption of SFAS
No. 123(R)

See Note 1 for a description of our adoption of SFAS No. 123(R), on January 1, 2006. A summary of the
share-based compensation expense that we recorded in accordance with SFAS No. 123(R) for the twelve months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 for stock options, restricted stock awards and shares purchased under our ESPP is as follows (in
thousands, except per share amounts):

Prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R), we presented all tax benefits for deductions
resulting from the exercise of stock options as operating cash flows on our statement of cash flows. SFAS No. 123(R) requires the cash flows resulting from the tax benefits for tax deductions in excess of the compensation expense recorded for
those options (excess tax benefits) to be classified as financing cash flows. There were no excess tax benefits for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006.

Determining Fair Value

We estimate the fair value of stock options granted using the
Black-Scholes option valuation model. For options granted before January 1, 2006, we amortize the fair value on an accelerated basis. For options granted on or after January 1, 2006, we amortize the fair value on a straight-line basis over
the requisite service periods of the awards. For restricted stock awards, the fair value is calculated as the market price on date of grant and we amortize the fair value on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award. We
used the following assumptions to estimate the fair value of options granted and shares purchased under our ESPP for the twelve months ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively:

The expected term of options granted represents the period of time that they are expected to be
outstanding. We estimate the expected term of options granted based on historical exercise patterns, which we believe are representative of future behavior. We estimate the volatility of our common stock at the date of grant based on historical
volatility. Our decision to use historical volatility instead of implied volatility was based upon analyzing historical data along with the lack of availability of history of actively traded options on our common stock. We base the risk-free
interest rate on the implied yield in effect at the time of option grant on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with equivalent remaining terms. We have never paid cash dividends on our common stock and we do not anticipate paying cash dividends in the
foreseeable future. Consequently, we use an expected dividend yield of zero. We use historical data to estimate pre-vesting option forfeitures and record share-based compensation expense only for those awards that are expected to vest. For purposes
of calculating pro forma information under SFAS No. 123 for periods prior to 2006, we accounted for forfeitures as they occurred.

Share-Based
Compensation Expense and Stock Award Activity

For the year ended December 31, 2007, we recorded $16.0 million in
share-based compensation expense, which includes $9.7 million for stock options, $5.6 million for restricted stock awards, and $704,000 for our ESPP. The total fair value of stock options and restricted stock awards vested during the year ended
December 31, 2007 was $14.8 million and $2.6 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2007, total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock options and restricted stock awards was $16.1 million and $12.3 million,
respectively, which is expected to be recognized over the remaining weighted-average vesting periods of 2.4 years for stock options and 2.9 years for restricted stock awards. Total unrecognized compensation cost will be adjusted for future changes
in estimated forfeitures.

A summary of stock option activity under all stock plans during the year ended December 31, 2007 is as
follows:

We define in-the-money options at December 31, 2007 as options that had exercise prices that
were lower than the $9.60 market price of our common stock at that date. The aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding at December 31, 2007 is calculated as the difference between the exercise price of the underlying options and the
market price of our common stock for the 7.8 million shares that were in-the-money at that date. There were 5.0 million in-the-money options exercisable at December 31, 2007.

Comparable Disclosure

Prior to January 1, 2006, we accounted for our share-based compensation plans under the recognition and measurement provisions of APB Opinion No. 25 and related Interpretations. No share-based employee
compensation cost is reflected in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 2005, as all options granted under those plans had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock
on the date of grant. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and net income per share if we had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 to share-based employee compensation prior to January 1, 2006
(in thousands, except per share amounts):

|11. | Defined Contribution Plans
|--- | --------------------------

We have a voluntary
defined contribution plan under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code that covers substantially all U.S. employees. Through 2007 the 401(k) plan provided for a discretionary employer matching contribution that was paid quarterly. The
employer matching contribution will also be made quarterly in 2008 at the discretion of management. Employer contributions made to the 401(k) plan were $1.4 million during 2007, $401,000 during 2006, and $274,000 during 2005.

During 2007, we recorded income tax expense of $5.3 million. Of this $5.3 million income tax
expense, $397,000 is a cash tax expense related to domestic taxes and $1.7 million of foreign income taxes due. The remaining tax expense is all non-cash expense. The significant components of the non-cash portion are $245,000 related to an increase
to the FIN 48 tax interest and penalties that would impact the effective tax rate, $879,000 related to the release of valuation allowance on our foreign deferred tax assets, in which the benefit was recorded to goodwill and $2.0 million related to
indefinite lived intangibles. This is compared with $9.5 million of income tax expense recorded in 2006 which consisted of $8.5 million non-cash expense related to a net tax valuation allowance recorded on our net deferred tax assets and the
remainder related to current income tax.

Federal alternative minimum tax was provided on the portion of our alternative minimum taxable
income which could not be entirely offset by the available alternative tax net operating loss deduction carryforward. Current tax law provides that part or all of the amount of the alternative minimum tax paid can be carried forward indefinitely and
credited against federal regular tax in future tax years to the extent the regular tax liability exceeds the alternative minimum tax in those years. For 2007, the reversal of $879,000 of the tax valuation allowance related to acquired net operating
losses was recorded as a decrease to goodwill in the balance sheet and not as a benefit to tax expense in the income statement. This is compared to $3.1 million recorded in 2006.

The components for the provision for income taxes were as follows (in thousands):

In accordance with SFAS No. 109, we have assessed the likelihood that the net deferred tax
assets will be realized. SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, requires the consideration of a valuation allowance in all circumstances, if the conclusion is not more likely than not a valuation allowance is required. We have
recorded a deferred tax liability on our balance sheet for indefinite lived intangible assets that are not deductible for tax purposes and therefore cannot be used to realize additional reversing deferred tax assets. We also have a



72



---

deferred tax asset that is able to be recognized on the FIN 48 liabilities that are recorded. In accordance with SFAS No. 109, our remaining noncurrent
deferred tax liabilities are netted with our noncurrent deferred tax assets and are presented as a single amount in our consolidated balance sheet. We have determined that primarily all of our net deferred tax assets are not more likely than not to
be realized, and as such a full valuation allowance has been placed on this amount.

We adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting
Standards Board Interpretation No. 48 (FIN 48), Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an Interpretation of SFAS No. 109 on January 1, 2007. FIN 48 creates a single model to address uncertainty in tax positions and
clarifies the accounting for income taxes by prescribing the minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, measurement,
classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. At the adoption date, January 1, 2007, we did not have a material liability under FIN 48 for unrecognized tax benefits. Since adoption, we have
recognized approximately a $1.4 million increase in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits, $245,000 of which, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate. We have $1.1 million of uncertain tax benefits which, if recognized, would be
offset by an increase in the valuation allowance on net operating losses thus have no impact on the effective tax rate. Also, in accordance with FIN 48, we have recognized $30,000 in interest expense and $31,000 in penalties, as income tax expense
for the year ended December 31, 2007.

A reconciliation of the change in the unrecognized tax benefits balance from January 1,
2007 to December 31, 2007 is as follows (in thousands):

Our company is subject to U.S. Federal income tax as well as state income tax in multiple
jurisdictions. Generally, tax years from 2004 through the present remain open under the statue of limitations. However, due to net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards from prior periods, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) could potentially review the
losses related to NOL-generating years back to 1989. Our company is also subject to income tax in several foreign jurisdictions which have open tax years varying by jurisdiction back to 2001. We do not expect the amount of unrecognized tax benefits
to significantly change within the next twelve months.

Worldwide net operating loss carryforwards totaled approximately $357.1 million at
December 31, 2007, comprised of $344.1 million domestic NOL carryforwards and $13.0 million of international NOL carryforwards. These carryforwards are available to offset taxable income through 2027 and will start to expire in 2011. Of these
carryforwards, $107.9 million relates to acquired CyberGuard net operating losses, $63.7 million relates to acquired N2H2 net operating losses, and $20.2 million relates to acquired CipherTrust net operating losses. Utilization of state
carryforrwards may differ in some states due to the methodologies used by the various jurisdictions. We have provided a complete valuation allowance on primarily all of these acquired losses, and upon release of the valuation allowance, a portion of
the benefit will go to the balance sheet to reduce goodwill instead of a benefit to the income tax provision. With the adoption of SFAS No. 141(R) in 2009, the recognition of changes in the acquirers income tax valuation allowance
resulting from business combinations will be recorded as adjustments to income tax expense. As of December 31, 2007 we have deducted $62.1 million related to stock option exercises. The tax benefit from these stock option exercises will be
recorded as an increase to additional paid-in capital upon utilization of the net operating losses.

No provision has been made for U.S.
federal income taxes on certain cumulative undistributed earnings of non U.S. subsidiaries as we intend to indefinitely reinvest these earnings in the non U.S. subsidiaries or the earnings may be remitted substantially tax-free. The total cumulative
undistributed earnings of certain of our non



73



---

U.S. subsidiaries that would be subject to federal income tax if remitted under existing law has not been determined as of December 31, 2007.
Determination of the unrecognized deferred tax liability related to these earnings is not practicable because of the complexities with its hypothetical calculation. Upon distribution of these earnings, we may be subject to U.S. taxes and withholding
taxes payable to various foreign governments.



|13. | Contingencies
|--- | -------------

On June 5, 2006, Finjan
Software, Ltd. filed a complaint entitled Finjan Software, Ltd. v. Secure Computing Corporation in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware against Secure Computing Corporation, CyberGuard Corporation, and Webwasher AG. The
complaint alleged that Secure Computing and its named subsidiaries infringe U.S. Patent No. 6,092,194 (194 Patent) based on the manufacture, use, and sale of the Webwasher Secure Content Management suite, CyberGuard TSP, and
IronMail. On April 10, 2007, Finjan amended its Complaint to allege that Secure Computing and its named subsidiaries infringe U.S. Patent No. 6,804,780 (780 Patent) and U.S. Patent No. 7,058,822 (822
Patent) based on the manufacture, use, and sale of the Webwasher Secure Content Management suite. Secure Computing denies infringing any valid claims of the 194 Patent, the 780 Patent, or the 822 Patent. The answer and
counterclaims to Finjans amended complaint was filed on April 20, 2007. In its counterclaims, Secure Computing alleges that Finjan infringes two Secure Computing patentsU.S. Patent No. 6,357,010 and U.S. Patent
No. 7,185,361. Discovery is complete and trial is set to begin on March 3, 2008.

On May 4, 2007, Secure Computing filed a
complaint in the United States District Court for the district of Minnesota against Finjan Software Ltd. and Finjan Software, Inc. In its complaint, Secure Computing asserts that Finjans load-balancing security solutions, including but not
limited to Finjans Vital Security Load Balancer NG-5300, infringe U.S. Patent No. 7,171,681. On May 24, 2007, Secure Computing filed an amended complaint adding additional claims that Finjan is in violation of §43(a) of the
Lanham Act, the Minnesota Deceptive Trade Practices Act, and Minnesotas common law, for unfair competition and false advertising. The complaint seeks, among other things, unspecified monetary damages arising from Finjans unauthorized use
of Secure Computings patented technology and for Finjans continued and willful false and/or misleading statements in advertising. Finjan has counterclaimed, asserting that Secure Computing has breached a Smartfilter OEM Agreement, and
that Secure Computing is in violation of §43(a) of the Lanham Act, the Delaware Deceptive Trade Practices Act, and Delawares common law, for unfair competition and false advertising. Secure Computing denies the allegations made in
Finjans counterclaims. The matter has been transferred to the United States District Court for the district of Delaware. Discovery has not yet commenced.

On January 19, 2007, Rosenbaum Capital, LLC. filed a putative securities class action complaint in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California against Secure Computing and certain
directors and officers of the company. The alleged plaintiff class includes persons who acquired our stock between May 4, 2006 through July 11, 2006. The complaint alleges generally that defendants made false and misleading statements
about our business condition and prospects for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2006, in violation of Section 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and SEC Rule 10b-5. The complaint seeks unspecified monetary damages.
After plaintiff filed an amended complaint on July 2, 2007, the defendants filed motions to dismiss. Those motions are fully briefed, and the parties are awaiting a decision. To the extent plaintiff is found to have stated a valid legal claim,
which defendants dispute, we believe that our public statements during the class period were timely and accurate; and the defendants intend to defend the claims vigorously.

On September 21, 2007, Diane Josifovich filed a complaint against Secure Computing in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Somerset County. The
complaint alleges that Secure Computing breached its contract with Ms. Josifovich with respect to payment for commission sales. Related to this allegation, the complaint also alleges claims of promissory estoppel, equitable estoppel,
misrepresentation, and breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing. The complaint also alleges that Secure Computing retaliated against Ms. Josifovich and created a hostile work environment on the basis of Ms. Josifovichs
gender. The complaint seeks unspecified

monetary damages. In February 2008, the plaintiff amended her complaint to add a claim that she was allegedly retaliated against by being placed on a
performance improvement plan and terminated. This matter is pending.

We intend to vigorously defend all claims against us.

From time to time we may be engaged in certain other legal proceedings and claims arising in the ordinary course of our business. The ultimate
liabilities, if any, which may result from these or other pending or threatened legal actions against us cannot be determined at this time. However, in the opinion of management, the facts known at the present time do not indicate that such
litigation will have a material effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operation.

All potential common share equivalents for the year ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 were
excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share as inclusion of these shares would have been anti-dilutive. Additionally, 6.1 million and 5.6 million shares of common stock as if our preferred stock was converted, were excluded
from the effect of dilutive securities for the year ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, because we reported a net loss for these periods. Potential common shares of 2.6 million related to our outstanding stock options were
excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for 2005, as inclusion of these shares would have been anti-dilutive.



|15. | Segment Information
|--- | -------------------

We view our operations and
manage our business as one segment called enterprise security solutions. Major foreign markets for our products and services include Europe, Japan, China, the Pacific Rim, the Middle East, Australia and Latin America. In each market, we have
independent channel partners who are responsible for marketing, selling and supporting our products and services to resellers and end-users within their defined territories. International sales accounted for 36%, 39% and 38% of total revenue for the
years 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

The following table summarizes our domestic and international revenues (in thousands):

|16. | Related Party Transaction
|--- | -------------------------

In February 2005, we
made a strategic investment in a privately-held technology company of $2.7 million. In July 2007, we made an additional $500,000 investment. As a result of this $3.2 million investment, we have a 15% ownership stake in this company. This investment
is reported in the other assets line on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and is evaluated for impairment quarterly.

Two of our
board members, one of whom is a board member of the investee, are individual investors of the investee. Due to their involvement with the investee, these two board members recused themselves from our decisions to make the investments.

|(1) | Operating loss for the quarter ended June 30, 2006 was negatively impacted by the reduction in revenue recognized in that quarter. For the quarters ended September 30,
2006 and December 31, 2006, operating loss was impacted by the acquisition of CipherTrust. Because we are unable to establish VSOE of fair value on the CipherTrust product line revenues, the majority of the revenue from those product lines has
been deferred, while the operating expenses continue to be recognized in the current periods, resulting in a net operating loss impact.

|(2) | Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2006 included the impact of benefiting from the reversal of $7.3 million of valuation allowance that had been established against our
deferred tax assets. Net loss for the quarter ended December 31, 2006 included a net $15.5 million tax expense due to being unable to benefit from the initial release of valuation allowance on utilized acquired net operating losses and an
increase in the valuation allowance established against our deferred tax assets.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors and Stockholders of Secure Computing Corporation

We
have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Secure Computing Corporation and subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders equity, and
cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2007. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(a). These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of
the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audits.

We conducted
our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In
our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Secure Computing Corporation and subsidiaries at December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the consolidated results
of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2007, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when
considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.

We
have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), Secure Computing Corporation and subsidiaries internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, based on
criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, and our report dated February 29, 2008, expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors and Stockholders of Secure Computing Corporation

We
have audited Secure Computing Corporation and subsidiaries internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, based on criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework, issued by the Committee of
Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the COSO criteria). Secure Computing Corporations management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness
of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Managements Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the companys internal control over financial
reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of
internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we
considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A companys internal control over
financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
A companys internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the
assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and that receipts and expenditures of
the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the
companys assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial
reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance
with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, Secure Computing Corporation maintained, in all material respects, effective internal
control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, based on the COSO criteria.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of Secure Computing Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related consolidated statements of operations,
stockholders equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2007, and our report dated February 29, 2008, expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
