Market Wire, April, 2007

Liquid Machines, Inc., the leader in Enterprise Rights Management (ERM) solutions, today announced that Info Security Products Guide, a Silicon Valley Communications publication and the world's leading publication on security-related products and technologies, has named Liquid Machines Document Control(TM) the winner of three 2007 Global Product Excellence Awards. Liquid Machines was awarded the 2007 Global Product Excellence in Document Protection Customer Trust Award and was named the co-winner of both the Global Product Excellence in Security Solution for Federal and the Global Product Excellence Security Solution for Government Customer Trust Awards.

Info Security Products Guide annually asks the top security vendors to submit products for consideration in a number of categories. This year, more than 18,000 end-users and prospective customers from across the globe were invited to vote for the products that they trust the most when it comes to protecting their digital resources. The full listing of products is available at: http://www.infosecurityproductsguide.com/products/index.html and more information on Liquid Machines Document Control and other winners is available in the publication's buyer's guide, located at: http://www.infosecurityproductsguide.com/buyers/index.php .

"Security products have continued to evolve rapidly the past few years -- and advanced technologies are now making it possible to take a pro-active approach to most security scenarios," said Rake Narang, managing editor of Info Security Products Guide. "End-users of these products have to deal with real-live threats, which may differ vastly from lab-simulated environments. These users build a strong 'Customer Trust' for products that best meet their requirements and therefore also play a key role in the security evolution cycle."

Liquid Machines' ERM solutions allow organizations to protect critical and sensitive content by applying protection at the information level -- enabling access and usage controls to travel with the protected confidential data as it moves from user to user, machine to machine, or between applications, inside or outside of the organization. The security policies and controls remain with the data for its entire lifecycle -- ensuring that the organization remains in control of who can see or use specific data and preventing attempts to copy or excerpt it. By tying access and enforcement directly to the data, companies are protected against confidential data loss, theft or modification -- and have a strong way of ensuring that their intellectual property is not accessed by unauthorized users.

"One need only to look at the latest headlines to see the reasons why it is so important for companies and organizations to securely protect their critical and sensitive information," added Ed Gaudet, vice president of product management and marketing at Liquid Machines. "But simply protecting data within your building's four walls isn't enough. Organizations need to be able to rest easy that their confidential information is protected no matter where it is -- and that it can only be accessed by authorized users. We are honored that readers of Info Security Products Guide have recognized Liquid Machines' ability to provide these critical protections for government organizations, private businesses and beyond."
