U.S. Department of Defense to Use Verity Technology in Next-Generation Message Handling Platform for Military Intelligence Community

Verity Software to Enhance Search and Notification Capabilities of Department of Defense?s New Multimedia Message Manager

SUNNYVALE, Calif. - 2002-07-22 - Verity, Inc. (NASDAQ: VRTY), a leading provider of infrastructure software powering corporate intranets and e-commerce sites as well as e-business applications, today announced that the Department of Defense Intelligence Information Systems (DODIIS) has integrated Verity's advanced search and notification software into its new message handling platform.

The new platform, called the Multimedia Message Manager (M3), is the DODIIS' next generation message handling system. It marks an evolution in the ability of the U.S. military's intelligence community to handle information in the form of graphics and rich-media files, in addition to text messages. M3 provides messaging services at more than 40 sites worldwide, and has the capacity to process as many as 35,000 messages at each site per day.

As the M3 messaging platform expands in the number of sites, users and messages handled, the need to make certain the right information gets delivered to the right person in the right way becomes critical. Verity's notification technology will handle this requirement. This software actively monitors all key sources across the Internet and the DODIIS' intranet and automatically filters and delivers highly personalized information to individuals and groups, based on their content and delivery preferences.

Another important aspect of the use of Verity's software within the M3 system is the ability of users to search quickly and accurately through more than 15 years' worth of stored messages, or about 20 million messages. Verity advanced search software helps users discover what they need and connect to millions of messages with the highest available security.

"The quantity of data accumulated by the Department of Defense Intelligence Information Systems is staggering," said Anthony J Bettencourt, president of Verity. "We are proud that the Department of Defense sought Verity's experience in helping major organizations in the private and public sectors improve the accessibility and navigation of information to facilitate the messaging system for the military intelligence community. With Verity's software, Military personnel not only can search for and get delivery of highly relevant messages in text format, but also in graphics and rich media formats."
