Press Release (U.S.) Asigra Reaches 3 Petabyte Milestone, Protecting Structured, Semi-Structured and Unstructured Data with Agentless Backup and Recovery Toronto – July 18, 2005 - Asigra™, the technology leader in agentless distributed backup and recovery software for network computing, today announced it has reached the three Petabyte milestone of data managed by its award-winning Televaulting™ multi-site backup and recovery software for enterprises and service providers. This total advances Asigra’s position in the marketplace, and means Asigra is protecting more information than the next four remote backup vendors combined. Asigra’s surge is attributed to strength in the storage software industry, especially the distributed backup and recovery space, which has resulted in a 200 percent increase in company revenue over the past year. Asigra is satisfying a need as corporations search for backup solutions that include true regulatory compliance, reduction in worldwide IT management expenditures, and compounded reduction of both hardware/software capital and enterprise-wide licensing costs. According to a recent report, “Continued customer spending on software for data protection, storage resource management and compliance, has helped to drive this positive start to 2005,” said Rhoda Phillips, research manager for IDC Storage Software. “Spending growth related to data protection, including replication, backup and archive software, is an indicator of customers' continued concerns about application availability, data management and business continuity.” “Asigra has been solving this problem – successfully, for 19 years. Now that the rest of the world has finally figured out that remote backup is a problem, I fully expect folks to start pounding on Asigra's front door,” said Steve Duplessie, Enterprise Strategy Group founder and senior analyst. “Who else can solve the problem with no agents?” Asigra Technology Leadership Asigra is leading the industry in innovation, unveiling a number of new technologies that are changing the way distributed enterprises protect corporate data. Asigra innovations include:

The company’s recent success not only builds upon its 19-year history of achievement but also serves as a stepping stone to future growth. Asigra recently announced the signing of more than 3,000 worldwide resellers who will continue to open previously untapped global markets. A growing number of partnerships with industry leaders, such as EMC and Network Appliance, ensure interoperability, cooperative support and rapid response for joint customers. “It’s all about recovery.
