ZL Technologies Signs Tier 1 Reseller Agreement With NTT Data Security

SAN JOSE, CA, May 27 (MARKET WIRE) --
ZL Technologies, Inc. (ZL), the leader in Integrated Content Archiving
for compliance, storage optimization, records management, and
E-Discovery, today announces that effective May 1, 2009, NTT Data
Security Corporation of Japan (NDS) has signed on as a non-exclusive Tier
1 reseller. NDS provides a broad range of system integration and
consulting services, especially in the arena of enterprise information
security management. NDS will resell ZL Unified Archival(TM) (ZL UA),
ZL's flagship product, which has been localized with Japanese user
interface (UI) and optimization for character language indexing and
searching.

E-mail archiving is in high demand in Japan, driven by regulatory
compliance needs of the Japanese equivalent of the U.S.' Sarbanes-Oxley
Act (often referred to as J-SOX), internal corporate governance policies,
and by the need to solve the problem of overloaded e-mail and file
servers.

ZL has a strong presence with many large enterprise customers in the
Japanese market, where a leading analyst firm in Japan observes that any
enterprise archiving over 10,000 mailboxes could consider ZL UA. Although
ZL already works with well-established channel partners in Japan, it
expects the partnership with NTT Data Security to add significant selling
capabilities through its parent NTT Data and its group companies to meet
Japanese market demand for a truly scalable e-mail archiving and
management solution.

NDS is a wholly owned subsidiary of NTT Data, one of the largest IT
organizations in Japan, whose strength lies in selling to the financial
and government sectors and to large enterprises. This makes NTT Data
Security an ideal partner, as ZL UA's benefits are best realized in large
or complex deployments. These benefits include:

-- Super fast search, with results returned in seconds across an archive
of hundreds of millions of records
-- Global Single Instance Storage (SIS), which helps shrink storage
footprint to below 20% of what it was on the production e-mail server
-- Unified platform, with only one application to be managed and a single
vault for all user-generated content, including e-mail, files, instant
messages, faxes, and BlackBerry data
-- Resource-efficient scaling with ZL UA's auto-promoting GRID
-- Support for 100% virtualized server deployment, enabling fuller
resource utilization

"NTT Data Security welcomes the launch of this distributorship
agreement with ZL Technologies, Inc." says President of NTT Data Security
Corporation (NDS). "At NDS, providing a total solution for IT-related
security is a principle pillar of our business. We are constantly seeking
opportunites to enhance customers' corporate value. ZL UA provides a
highly reliabile solution with advanced technical capabilities and,
moreover, superior cost effectiveness while addressing the growing
importance of electronic records, making it an extremely well positioned
addition to our product portfolio. As we move forward, we will aim to
strengthen cooperation with ZL Technologies to develop and implement
solutions to even further reduce TCO and improve data security for our
customers."

"ZL Technologies is excited to have reached this agreement with NTT Data
Security after an intensive search for a new strategic partnership for the
Japanese market," says Kon Leong, President and CEO of ZL Technologies,
Inc. "NTT Data Security 's extensive reach within Japan's leading
organizations, paired with our expertise in e-mail and file compliance as
well as the best-of-breed TCO (total cost of ownership) reduction
technology, make this an ideal partnership. This well-timed collaboration
will help prepare Japanese organizations for compliance and corporate
governance while slashing the cost of ownership in these economically
trying times."
