Unisys Brings Advantages of Cloud Computing to Clients` Internal Data Centers with New Secure Private Cloud Solution

New private cloud offering, along with enhancements to public cloud solution,
expands CIOs` options for supporting business and protecting critical
applications and sensitive data
SANTA CLARA, Calif.--(Business Wire)--
Unisys Corporation (NYSE: UIS) today announced the latest in a series of
aggressive moves to expand the full spectrum of secure cloud computing options
available to enterprise CIOs.

The company announced Unisys Secure Private Cloud Solution, an innovative
solution for organizations to realize the operational and economic benefits of
cloud computing in their internal data centers. Unisys also announced
significant enhancements - including a disaster recovery service - to Unisys
Secure Cloud Solution, the company`s managed public cloud offering. Unisys is
showcasing new and forthcoming solutions at the SYS-CON Cloud Computing
Conference & Expo here.

"Unisys is committed to giving clients highly flexible computing services that
enable them to move more of their business workload to the cloud," said Rich
Marcello, president, Unisys Technology, Consulting and Integration Solutions.
"We have found that some organizations prefer a private cloud solution for
mission-critical applications that use sensitive data so they can retain greater
control over their own and their customers` information. Unisys meets that need
with the Secure Private Cloud Solution."

Recent Unisys research has consistently shown that security concerns are the
leading cause of enterprise and individual users` hesitancy in adopting cloud
computing. The most recent findings of the Unisys Security Index, a bi-annual
global study of consumer opinion on security-related issues, showed that a
significant percentage of respondents worldwide were uncomfortable about having
their personal data controlled by a third party without assurance that the data
could be kept secure.

"Unisys cloud computing strategy is based on providing industrial-strength
security and data protection," said Marcello. "Like our public cloud offering,
Unisys Secure Private Cloud Solution goes a long way toward allaying the
security concerns of enterprises and their customers. Unisys Secure Private
Cloud Solution presents CIOs with a way to realize the full operational and
economic advantages of public cloud computing on their own terms, in their own
data centers, with extra measures of security for their organizations` and their
customers` sensitive information."

Automation and Consulting Services Make Secure Private Cloud Solution Easy to
Deploy, Operate and Use

Unisys Secure Private Cloud Solution, scheduled for availability in December
2009, leverages the technology and expertise behind Unisys Secure Cloud
Solution. Unisys Secure Private Cloud Solution enables clients to reduce IT
costs through server and storage virtualization; remove troublesome IT
bottlenecks through automated operations and immediate, as-needed self-service
provisioning of resources; and align the supply of IT resources to fluctuating
business demand.

For ease of deployment, this pre-loaded, ready-to-go solution allows a full
range of virtualization, including scale-up and scale-out, and supports physical
as well as virtual machines. Clients can typically run existing Microsoft
Windows applications without alteration, reducing migration costs and realizing
the business benefits of cloud deployment more quickly.

Extreme automation makes Unisys Secure Private Cloud Solution easy to operate
and manage. The solution enables automated virtual provisioning and repurposing
of IT resources on the fly and provides automated resource tracking to
facilitate allocation of IT usage costs to specific groups.

Clients can either monitor the infrastructure themselves or have Unisys do it
through the Unisys Converged Remote Infrastructure Management Solution.
Announced in March 2009, that solution correlates events across all managed
infrastructure segments to orchestrate pre-emptive action against potential IT
faults. Unisys also plans to include enhanced capabilities in this solution,
such as live chats to resolve service issues more quickly at a lower operational
cost.

Provisioning through a self-service portal makes Unisys Secure Private Cloud
Solution easy to use. From anywhere on the network, at any time, users can
select the configuration and length of time needed to address a specific IT
resource requirement and typically move existing applications to a Unisys cloud
without modification.

This self-service capability can reduce provisioning time from days to minutes.
For example, deploying the technology that underpins Unisys Secure Private Cloud
Solution for its engineering development and testing lab, Unisys cut virtual
server provisioning time from 10 days to five minutes while avoiding the cost of
hiring extra staff to manage the lab.

Organizations using Unisys Secure Private Cloud Solution can optionally choose
to implement Unisys Stealth solution for additional data protection. Using
patent-pending data protection technology, the Stealth solution cloaks data from
detection as it moves through the network. As a result, different departments
and applications in a multi-tenant environment can share the same IT
infrastructure without fear of compromising the security of their data moving
across the corporate network.

To make it easier for users to decide on and deploy Unisys Secure Private Cloud
Solution, Unisys has augmented its portfolio of Cloud Transformation Services
with Current State Assessment, Design and Planning, Installation and
Configuration, Implementation and Application Migration Services specifically
for private cloud deployment. The Cloud Transformation Services are delivered by
a workforce of 3,000 Unisys consultants worldwide.

Disaster Recovery, Additional Services Boost Unisys Public Cloud Capabilities

"To give clients wider choice in cloud services, Unisys continues to enhance the
capabilities of the Unisys Secure Cloud Solution," said Marcello. "We are
enriching a public cloud environment that already offers industrial-strength
security so enterprise clients and their customers can have greater confidence
that their sensitive business and personal information is protected in the
cloud."

Unisys has added Secure Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS) to the Secure
Cloud Solution. This new service provides comprehensive business continuity and
disaster recovery services on a subscription basis, typically lowering clients`
cost of entry compared to in-house implementation. The service also makes it
easier for clients to comply with laws and standards requiring storage and
recovery of sensitive business data and applications.

With the DRaaS service, the Unisys Secure Cloud Solution is configured as a
disaster recovery backup facility, with copies of critical applications and data
stored in Unisys data centers worldwide. The automated provisioning, replication
and failover capabilities of the Secure Cloud Solution permit applications to be
recovered within minutes.

Unisys has also added new capabilities to key "as a service" offerings delivered
through the Secure Cloud Solution:

* At the end of November 2009, Unisys plans to support Microsoft stacks,
including IIS Web Server, .NET Application Server and SQL Server, along with
custom stacks such as IBM Websphere and Oracle, in Unisys Secure Platform as a
Service (PaaS). This service makes it easier for clients to move their
applications to the cloud without changes; and
* Unisys Secure Virtual Office as a Service (VOaaS), which provides access to
standard office suites through hosted desktop services, will support qualified
client-supplied devices, such as PCs used as thin clients. This addition enables
IT organizations to give workers access to applications and support through the
technologies they want to use so they can stay continually productive no matter
where they are.
