ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS.


         On May 19, 2004, V-ONE Corporation  ("V-ONE") signed a letter of intent
with SteelCloud Inc.  ("SteelCloud"),  for SteelCloud to acquire V-ONE in an all
stock  transaction.  The letter of intent is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and
is hereby  incorporated  by reference.  Also attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2 and
herein  incorporated  by  reference  is a press  release  issued  by  V-ONE  and
SteelCloud,  dated May 20,  2004,  announcing  the  execution  of the  letter of
intent.

         Certain statements contained in the press release, including statements
regarding the  anticipated  transaction  with  SteelCloud,  are  forward-looking
statements  (as such term is defined  under the federal  securities  laws),  are
based on  current  expectations  and  assumptions  and are  subject to risks and
uncertainties,  many of which are outside the control of V-ONE.  Actual  results
could differ materially as a result of many factors,  including, but not limited
to,  the  inability  of the  parties  to  agree  upon the  terms  of  definitive
transaction documents, to secure any required approvals or consents or otherwise
to complete the  transaction  in a timely  manner,  and other factors  listed in
V-ONE's Securities and Exchange Commission filings, including its report on Form
10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2004 and its report on Form 10-K for
the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003.
