Signiant Announces Mobilize 4.0 Automated Data Movement Software for Secure, Reliable Data Transfer Among Heterogeneous Systems



Latest Version of Market Leading Solution Offers Enhanced Data Transfer Performance, Ease of Use and Security

Burlington, MA - June 10, 2003 - Signiant Inc. today announced Signiant Mobilize(TM) 4.0, the latest version of its leading automated data movement software.

Sold through leading storage OEMs and resellers, Mobilize is proven data movement technology that provides an end-to-end automation solution for secure, reliable data transfer among heterogeneous systems. Release 4.0 of Mobilize provides significant advancements to its already market-leading capabilities.

Mobilize dramatically reduces the cost of repeatable data movement among distributed UNIX, Linux and Windows systems for key applications such as consolidating files from remote sites for centralized backup, archival or regulatory compliance, distributing information to branch locations, and directory synchronization such as synchronizing software code among globally distributed development teams.

"With Mobilize, companies both lower costs and gain efficiencies by automating data movement processes throughout their enterprises," said Dennis Albano, CEO of Signiant. "Since Mobilize has the capabilities to handle data consolidation, distribution and synchronization, all with the same software, it lets companies take control of data transfers and eliminate reliance on costly, error-prone, manually intensive home-grown methods and physical media distribution."

Version 4.0 highlights include:
o 300% higher performance in moving data through high-latency networks
o Addition of AES (256 bit) encryption
o High availability feature with automatic failover
o New, more intuitive configuration that enables rapid implementation of sophisticated data movement and automation of related processes
o Full support for international character sets

Mobilize solutions are currently at work at financial services, retail, software, government, aerospace and energy companies. Scalable to networks with thousands of nodes, yet centrally managed, Mobilize can reduce or eliminate the need for IT administration at remote sites. Designed for easy integration into existing infrastructure and processes, Mobilize provides guaranteed, secure delivery of information across LANs, WANs, through firewalls and over the Internet.

Mobilize is increasingly being implemented to centralize backup processes in companies with numerous remote offices or stores, an approach that can save up to 75% each year in backup costs. Rather than depend on unreliable individual backups at each site, Mobilize automatically identifies the data that has changed at each location, and moves it to a central site for a consolidated backup process. Using this approach companies can eliminate tape, equipment, storage and IT effort at each site, and ensure the data is adequately captured for backup and compliance.
