AUTONOMY'S MEANING-BASED COMPUTING TECHNOLOGY INTEGRATED INTO VERDASYS ENTERPRISE INFORMATION PROTECTION TECHNOLOGY

Autonomy and Verdasys Expand Strategic Partnership for Delivering Information Protection and Risk Management Offerings

Cambridge, UK and San Francisco, Calif. - August 10, 2009 - Autonomy Corporation plc (LSE: AU. or AU.L), a global leader in infrastructure software for the enterprise, today announced that Verdasys, Inc., a leading supplier of enterprise information protection (EIP) solutions, has renewed its OEM agreement with Autonomy to extend their strategic partnership. Verdasys leverages Autonomy's core infrastructure software, the Intelligent Data Operating Layer (IDOL), to power Verdasys Digital Guardian, a content inspection and data classification solution used by leading financial services, healthcare, manufacturing, and technology companies.

Verdasys first integrated the Autonomy technology into its Digital Guardian product in November 2006, offering content inspection, discovery and classification of sensitive data on networks, email, host machines and servers across the extended enterprise for data at rest, in use, and in motion. Over that time, this integrated technology has been successfully deployed by over 100 customers and to more than 300,000 users worldwide, including several very large implementations with government institutions in both the US and abroad.

"We have designed the Verdasys Digital Guardian solution to benefit from the rich capabilities of the Autonomy IDOL engine, which include powerful language support and highly accurate detection capabilities," said Seth Birnbaum, Chief Executive Officer of Verdasys. "These technologies have combined to create the most differentiated and comprehensive solution in the EIP market, and have allowed us to accelerate the momentum of our business across multiple industry verticals and geographies."

"We are proud to help Verdasys deliver such a strong and comprehensive product to the EIP market," said Stouffer Egan, Chief Executive Officer, Autonomy Inc. U.S. "The rapid uptake of the product is a result of the innovative design of the Verdasys Digital Guardian architecture and the power of IDOL's Meaning Based Computing technology. We look forward to continuing our very successful relationship with Verdasys as we deliver innovations that meet the evolving needs of the data loss prevention market."
