EAGAN, MINN. (ContentDesk) November 22, 2005 -- Intradyn (www.intradyn.com),the leader in simple, affordable appliance solutions for automated email archiving, announced today it will expand its recently introduced next-generation email archiving appliance line to a new market segment: midsize and large enterprises.The company is announcing additional models that feature greater storage capacity than previous units, with disk capacities ranging from two to eight terabytes (TBs). The ComplianceVault06" is a true appliance, meaning it is a complete, application-specific, plug-and-play network server with a web interface.
As such, it is an all-in-one, in-house solution with a single upfront cost as differentiated from hardware/software bundles and outsourced, service-provider solutions, which have ongoing costs and risks related to security and liability. Weve validated the appliance model for email archiving, said Gary Doan, Intradyn CEO.
And the one consistent thing we hear from our sales channel is that larger companies and governmental agencies want our email archiving appliance, but with more disk capacity befitting their size.
So these new models, in 2U and 3U rackmount hardware platforms, are in direct response to that demand.
And well soon be announcing new partnerships to take advantage of this marketplace opportunity, including support for other tape and optical removable media formats. The ComplianceVault06" Email Archiving & Retrieval Appliance is an integrated hardware/software solution that captures all of a companys email on a continuous basis, from a virtually unlimited number of email boxes.
(Photo of new 2U and 3U models: www.intradyn.com/compliancevault06/2U3U.jpg.) It stores all email on both hard disk and tape or optical media including unalterable WORM media (write once, read many).
The appliance works with Microsoft Exchange, Lotus Notes, and virtually any IMAP or POP3 email system.
It allows companies to meet a variety of email retention needs, whether related to regulatory compliance (SEC 17a-3 and 17a-4, NASD 3110, FDA 21 CFR Part 11, HIPAA, etc), or simply for good business practice in electronic records management as relates the requirements of the Sarbanes Oxley Act, for example.
The appliance also allows for rapid searching of email to improve responsiveness to litigation discovery requests. Intradyn originally introduced the ComplianceVault" appliance in mid-2004 as a simple, all-in-one desktop appliance for small to midsized businesses, at a cost of less than $10,000, with disk capacities of 120 and 250 gigabytes (GBs).
In October 2004, the company added 1U rackmount models in response to customer demand, with additional disk capacities of 500 and 800 GBs.
In October 2005, Intradyn introduced the next-generation of the device the ComplianceVault06" featuring software based on a new architecture, which represented another major step forward in search and audit functionality and ease-of-use.
The new product was first made available in the 1U rackmount hardware platform, with the choice of disk capacities extended up to 1 TB.
As previously, the appliance could be bundled with any Sony AIT-2 or AIT-3 tape library. (Since early 2005, Intradyn has been co-marketing the ComplianceVault" with Sony Electronics. Additional marketing and OEM partnership announcements are pending.) ComplianceVault06" Capabilities and BenefitsKey attributes of the ComplianceVault06" email archiving appliance are as follows:"

Hardware encryption which the user can select, if desired, to safeguard removable media. Hardware encryption is a new feature implemented with the 2U and 3U models. Intradyns Encryptape"technology is based on the same type of encryption used by the U.S.
