Top information services company joins forces with leader in disk-based backup and recovery to provide hands-free, continuous data protection service

MARLBOROUGH, MA AND DAYTON, OH, September 14, 2004 - LiveVault Corporation (www.livevault.com), the leading provider of online backup and recovery solutions for business servers, and LexisNexis U.S., a leader in legal, news and business information services and applied applications, today announced an alliance to offer the LiveVault Online Backup and Recovery Service^™ to LexisNexis customers in legal and business markets. LexisNexis will market the LiveVault^® service as the LexisNexis Data Backup and Recovery Service.

LexisNexis, the most recognized name in legal and business information, provides information and systems hosting services to Fortune 500 businesses and law firms of all sizes. Through the alliance, LexisNexis will offer LiveVault to its customers to deliver continuous, automatic and guaranteed protection for critical legal and business data. In addition, LexisNexis offers large-scale data hosting at its two world-class data centers in southwest Ohio.

"We chose LiveVault because it offers a complete, proven online backup and recovery service—exactly what our customers need," said Allan McLaughlin, senior vice president and chief technology officer, LexisNexis. "The LexisNexis Data Backup and Recovery Service powered by LiveVault is an attractive solution for our small and medium-sized law firms and businesses because it provides secure and reliable online data protection, without any of the hassles of managing the process."

The LexisNexis Data Backup and Recovery Service automatically and continuously backs up business server data via a secure Internet connection and stores it in a secure, remote, offsite facility where it is available for immediate recovery. LiveVault designed the service for small and mid-sized law firms and businesses that have primarily relied on in-house tape backups.

"We decided to protect our data using The LexisNexis Data Backup and Recovery Service powered by LiveVault. What attracted us to this solution was the ability to protect our critical data files while eliminating the need to perform tape backups, along with ease of installation," said Sara Reynolds, chief information officer of Keating, Muething & Klekamp PLL, a 100-attorney law firm in Cincinnati, Ohio.

Analysts estimate nearly 50 percent of tape-based backups fail to restore correctly, which exposes users to significant risk. In contrast, LiveVault guarantees recovery of all business-critical data and enables users to return operations to the state they were in immediately prior to a data-loss event.

"Together, LexisNexis and LiveVault deliver this powerful advantage to law firms and businesses: a cost-effective way of ensuring that critical business data is kept safe from harm and fully recoverable in the event of a disaster," said Bob Cramer, president and CEO of LiveVault. "By partnering with LexisNexis, a trusted name in the legal and business communities, we are now able to reach thousands of at-risk businesses and ensure that the data they depend on is protected against system failure, virus, human error or other disaster."
