SWORD to round out solutions portfolio with CYA SmartRecovery and CYA SmartReplicator

SHELTON, Conn. and LONDON -- CYA([R])Technologies, the leader in solutions ensuring the integrity, discrete recoverability, and asynchronous replication of information within enterprise content management (ECM) repositories, and international IT products and services company SWORD Group (SWP) today announced that SWORD has become an authorized provider of CYA SmartRecovery[TM] and CYA SmartReplicator[TM] for EMC Documentum customers throughout the UK and Europe. This partnership enables CYA and SWORD to address increased demand for their products driven by the rising need for ECM solutions forecasted by Gartner Dataquest, which anticipates that the ECM software market in Europe will grow from $1 billion in 2007 to over $1.7 billion in 20111.

"We chose to partner with CYA because their products offer our clients the only proven solutions for fully protecting the corporate information assets within their ECM systems, and for enabling them to rapidly produce discrete information including audit trails and other metadata in response to business demands and e-discovery requirements," said Jim Graham, operations director for SWORD Group. "Not only do CYA's solutions solve critical business problems for our customer base, they can be rapidly deployed into our customers' existing environments and make discrete recovery operations fast and painless."

CYA SmartRecovery protects ECM repositories against more than 80 percent of all information loss incidents, which result from common, everyday occurrences such as programmatic, human, and logical errors, malfeasance, and metadata corruption.* Using proprietary, application-aware Intelli-Capture[TM] technology, CYA SmartRecovery:

* Captures, validates, and preserves ECM content and its related, complex metadata (e.g. annotations, workflows and audit trails) in a single, synchronous pass.

* Ensures business continuity and operational efficiency by enabling an administrator to restore only the lost or corrupt information back to its original state in the Documentum repository in minutes - with no ECM application downtime.

* Empowers organizations to maximize the productivity of their global workforces, as well as meet the need for application-aware information protection driven by increasing financial and legal requirements related to compliance audits, inspections, and e-discovery.

CYA SmartReplicator ensures business continuity by enabling organizations to quickly failover to a fully synchronized standby ECM repository in the event that a system failure or natural disaster brings down the primary repository. Leveraging CYA SmartRecovery to create a failover repository, CYA SmartReplicator:

* Provides asynchronous replication of the information stored in Documentum's file and database servers to a standby repository in any location, enabling companies to support deployment of disaster recovery strategies with no distance limitations.

* Improves Recovery Point Objectives and reduces Recovery Time Objectives in the event of full system failure or site disaster.

* Reduces operational costs by eliminating the need to maintain separate hardware and software for replicating the database and the file server.

"Due to the recurring corporate focus on the paralyzing impact of partial information loss incidents caused by common, everyday occurrences such as human and programmatic errors, global businesses are recognizing the importance of ensuring the integrity and discrete recoverability of their ECM system assets," said Wayne Crandall, CEO of CYA Technologies. "SWORD is an ideal partner for CYA because its extensive ECM experience, broad geographical reach, and reputation for excellence enable us to fulfill the quickly growing demand for our solutions across Europe."
