AUTONOMY REACHES NEW BENCHMARK FOR MANAGING WORLD'S LARGEST DATA ARCHIVE

More Than Seven Petabytes of E-Mail, Documents and Multimedia Data Securely Managed on 6,000 Servers

Cambridge, UK and San Francisco, CA - Dec. 2, 2008 - Autonomy Corporation plc (LSE: AU. or AU.L), a global leader in infrastructure software for the enterprise, today announced that its on-demand archival solution has reached a new data processing benchmark, maintaining its position of managing the world's largest data archive. The Digital Safe solution is securely managing 7.1 petabytes of e-mail, documents and multimedia data on 6,000 servers. The solution archives three million files per hour.

Digital Safe is powered by Autonomy's Intelligent Data Operating Layer (IDOL), which ingests, de-duplicates, indexes and extracts metadata from the files. This prepares the data for compliance audits and eDiscovery for litigation. Each month, an average of 4,000 FRCP compliant audit and eDiscovery searches are conducted, resulting in the production of over eight terabytes of data. These litigation-ready content flows seamlessly into the Autonomy hosted eDiscovery Services environment, or is returned to the client. The Digital Safe solution is used by many global companies, including Aviva, Bank of America, Charles Schwab, Deutsche Bank, eBay, Lincoln Financial Group, LPL Financial, MetLife, Morgan Stanley, Societe Générale, St. Jude and TD AMERITRADE.

"With the volume of litigation and regulations increasing, companies are looking for a way to unify all of their communications into a repository to make it easy to search and find information that relates to potential issues," said Mike Sullivan, CEO of Autonomy ZANTAZ. "Autonomy helps companies to reduce their costs of eDiscovery and comply with emerging regulations. That's why 14 out of the top 20 financial institutions rely on Digital Safe as their choice for managed archiving."

Autonomy Digital Safe is a massively scalable, hosted archive service that enables customers to outsource the storage and management of their email messages, rich-media files, instant messages (IMs), unified communications content and content from over 400 repositories to a trusted, proven third-party. Digital Safe helps organizations to eliminate the burden of acquiring, implementing and managing local compliance grade storage, including the time and cost associated with backups, administration, software upgrades and technical support. The Autonomy solution requires no onsite hardware and is completely transparent to end-users. Customers' data is stored in two geographically dispersed, ultra-secure, SAS 70-compliant data centers, ensuring extra protection and Continuity of Business (COB) in the event of a natural or man-made disaster. Digital Safe is designed for the complex and changing requirements of regulated industries. It is proven compliant with all major compliance standards, including SEC 17a-4, FINRA 3010/342, FSA COBS 11.8, and the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure (FRCP).

Autonomy's Audit Services team for Digital Safe is available 24/7 to help companies respond in the most rapid, cost-effective manner possible. The team provides proven expertise in all phases of an audit or eDiscovery event. The team's expertise and best practices methodology ensure the accuracy and completeness of results.
