The Leading Information Classification and Management Provider Team with top Information Security Solution Provider

AUSTIN, Texas – February 13th, 2006 – StoredIQ, Inc. the leading provider of automated Information Classification and Management (ICM) solutions, today announced a partnership with CynergisTek, a leading information security solutions provider, to form a comprehensive and advanced compliance software and consulting solution.

Through the joint solution, organizations that wish to secure previously unmanaged information throughout their enterprise can implement StoredIQ’s ICM 5000 line of Information Classification and Management products in conjunction with CynergisTek’s Information Security, Compliance and Integration solutions to discover, secure and make intelligent policy decisions on data that may present a risk or value to their business.

“Every piece of information stored in a file server or email is a potential security risk,” said Arun Taneja, founding director of The Taneja Group. “What you do with that information not only affects regulatory compliance status but also overall enterprise performance.”

“We have always had a strong healthcare focus,” said Mac McMillan, CEO of CynergisTek. “StoredIQ is the only ICM solution that offers a custom HIPAA security lexicon. With over 40,000 medical terms and 17,500 drug terms built into their software, they were a natural fit for our complete information security and compliance solutions.”

“Our customers come to us because they want a complete healthcare compliance solution for files and electronic mail,” said John Bernardi, vice president of business development at StoredIQ. “CynergisTek has decades of experience in information security consultation which will greatly augment our software offering and further benefit our users.”

CynergisTek will be exhibiting, and providing demonstrations of StoredIQ ICM 5000 information classification and management platform, in booth 5145 at the 2006 Annual Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS) Conference and Exhibition February 12 – 16 in San Diego, CA.
