- Leading DPM Provider Demonstrates Enhanced Data Protection Management
Platform and Delivers Business Strategy Seminar at Storage Expo 2007

WysDM Software, Inc., the leading provider of advanced data protection
management (DPM) solutions, announced today that it will showcase a set of
significant new features added to its WysDM for Backups(TM) and WysDM for
Fileservers(TM) products at Storage Expo 2007. The conference will be held at
the National Hall, Olympia, London on October 17 and 18, 2007. Additionally,
WysDM's chief technology officer and co-founder, Jim McDonald, has been
invited to deliver a presentation titled Minimizing Your Recovery Risk with
Data Protection Management at one of the conference's business strategy
tracks on October 18, 1:15-1:45 p.m.

Data protection is focused on reducing the risk of data becoming
unavailable at some point in the future, however there are a number of areas
where traditional data protection fails to meet business requirements.
McDonald's presentation will provide a three-step strategy for ensuring that
data is protected to meet both internal and external risk management
requirements, and allow businesses to attain and maintain a minimal risk
profile.

"We look forward to demonstrating our data protection management
solutions at the foremost storage-focused event in the EMEA region," said Jim
McDonald, CTO, WysDM. "The rapidly increasing demand we're seeing for WysDM's
solutions, combined with an expanding channel of global distribution
partners, demonstrates that DPM technology is gaining traction all over the
world. It is clear that companies are looking for intelligent solutions such
as WysDM's that will enable them to excel at compliance and risk mitigation
while reducing their workload and minimizing their security concerns."

During the show exhibits, WysDM will demonstrate the new features
recently added to the WysDM platform at stand #120. Throughout the platform,
the company has added significant advances in compliance and risk mitigation,
security, and capacity planning to provide businesses with a full picture of
their data protection risk while reducing the time to provision storage and
enhancing overall storage utilization.
