Business Wire reported yesterday that Cylink has been
sued in US District Court of New Jersey for securities
fraud through a class action. It alleges misrepresentation
and false financial statements.

On November 5 Cylink announced revised revenues
for the first half of 1998. The day before William Crowell,
ex-NSA, was appointed president in a house sweep
of the executive team, apparently after discovery of book
cooking.
William Perry, ex-DoD, is still listed on the board of
directors, although the list seems to be out of date,
along with the annual report and letter to stockholders
on Cylink's Web site.
