FAIRFAX, VA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- December 13, 2006 -- Lee Technologies, Inc.
(
http://www.leetechnologies.com), a leading provider of solutions which
enable commercial enterprises and public sector agencies to avoid disaster
and mitigate risk to their physical infrastructures, today announced
organizational changes and executive promotions, which will support the
company as it further expands its services and leadership position.
"This is a very exciting time for Lee Technologies. Our recent, rapid
growth tells us that our customers greatly value the myriad of solutions
and services we provide to ensure uncompromised IT infrastructures," said
George Newstrom, President and COO of Lee Technologies. "The need to
protect mission-critical systems has never been as important as it is
today. Because of this, we are positioning Lee Technologies to be able to
rapidly expand our services in order to support our growing customer base
across North America."

assessments and risk analysis for new clients, Lee Technologies will help
companies achieve increased system uptime and reliability. Josh Gilman,
Director of Information Technology, will spearhead new initiatives that
will further help Lee's clients mitigate the risk of catastrophic outages.
In order to increase awareness nationwide, Lee Technologies will
incorporate a focused approach to overall marketing strategies to maximize
responsiveness to customer needs under the new leadership of Todd Bermont,
Director of Business Development, Marketing & Communications.
