Gold Medal Storage: Seagate to Provide Nearly Half a Million Gigabytes of Storage for NBC's 2008 Olympic Games CoverageSeagate's Barracuda(R) ES hard drives to power Omneon's MediaGrid active storage enabling NBC's complete coverage of the Beijing Olympics

SCOTTS VALLEY, Calif., July 21 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- The Seagate(R) Barracuda(R) ES Series has been selected as the hard drive of choice for the Omneon MediaDeck(TM) media servers and MediaGrid(TM) active storage systems that will enable NBC's coverage of the 2008 Beijing Olympics, to be held August 8-24. The media servers and storage systems will allow NBC to produce an unprecedented 3,600 hours of coverage during the Beijing Olympic Games -- a three-fold increase over the coverage during the 2004 Athens Olympic Games.

Picture this: A gymnast leaps onto the balance beam. By the time she makes a dismount, NBC's broadcast footage has already been stored on the Seagate Barracuda ES hard drive in Omneon's Beijing MediaGrid active storage system, traveled 6,350 miles to the New York MediaGrid active storage system, processed, and quickly transmitted as compelling coverage on television and http://www.nbcolympics.com/.

The innovative workflow begins in China with 20 MediaDeck servers, powered by the Barracuda ES hard drives, which are used to digitize and ingest HD feeds. Each MediaDeck server contains both high-resolution and low-resolution codecs to simultaneously create both full-resolution IMX or XDCAM HD files and low-resolution proxy files of all recordings. The resulting files are actively transferred, while still being recorded, to the MediaGrid active storage system. Then, using Omneon's ProCast CDN(TM) content distribution system, the proxies are transferred thousands of miles from the MediaGrid active storage system in Beijing to a second MediaGrid storage system in New York, again powered by Seagate Barracuda ES hard drives, where producers can browse, view, and edit the files.

"NBC needs to capture every second of every competition at multiple venues in China, quickly turning them into dynamic programming for television and Internet broadcasting -- nothing can fall through the cracks," said Bill Schilling, marketing director at Seagate. "We welcomed the opportunity to work with Omneon to support NBC for its Olympics coverage. Omneon is the market leader for developing storage solutions for broadcast video, which is becoming more prevalent via the Web, especially for hugely popular sporting events like the Olympics."

"Because the workflow must be seamless and the nature of the programming is so significant, we decided to use Seagate's enterprise hard drives, which are the best fit for our needs in terms of reliability, best-in-class design and unrivaled performance," said Geoff Stedman, SVP products and markets at Omneon.

Broadcast coverage of the Beijing Olympics will begin on August 8 along with coverage via the web at http://www.nbcolympics.com/

Exar Adds Next Generation Single-Channel T1/E1/J1 BITS Framer and Line Interface Unit (LIU) Combo to Industry's Most Extensive T/E PortfolioLow Voltage (1.8V), Highly Integrated, Feature Rich Solution Reduces Design Complexity for OEMs in Dynamic Markets

FREMONT, Calif., July 21 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Exar Corporation adds T1/E1/J1 framer and LIU combination with next generation capabilities and features to the industry's deepest portfolio of T/E solutions. The single-channel XRT86VL30 targets telecommunications equipment including wireless base stations, digital access and cross connect systems, Channel Service Units (CSUs), voice over packet gateways, among others.

"Synchronizing Ethernet has become a design challenge to compensate for jitter while packetizing clock information and due to high costs of implementing GPS," said Darren Pool, senior product line manager, Communications Product Line. "The XRT86VL30 BITS device offers cost effective clock synchronization through an E1 line that can be easily migrated to next generation 3.5G networks."

Product Details

The XRT86VL30 is a single-channel physical-layer processor incorporating a T1/E1 (1.544 Mb/s or 2.048 Mb/s) framer and a LIU. Each framer has both a framing synchronizer and transmit and receive slip buffers. Each framer also contains transmit and overhead data input ports, which permits data line terminal equipment direct access to the out-bound T1/E1/J1 frames. In the receive direction, it has complementary blocks to the transmit path. In addition, the XRT86VL30 includes a PRBS, QRSS and network loop up/down code generator/detector. The device detects standard framing and signal error conditions. The microprocessor interface is very flexible allowing for easy configuration, control, and status monitoring.

The XRT86VL30's line interface portion offers uninterrupted data transmission which is critical for applications including clock and data recovery circuitry, T1 compliant line build out, and a crystalless jitter attenuator for each channel. All of these are necessary for successfully transmitting and receiving T1, E1 and J1 signals.

"Customers who have come to trust the reliable performance and ease-of- design with our earlier eight-channel, four-channel, and dual-channel T1/E1/J1 framer/LIUs sought a single-channel next generation option for their platforms," said Tim Halladay, applications manager, Communications Product Line. "With simultaneous loop code detection for diagnostics, Exar's R3 Technology (TM) (Reconfigurable, Relayless Redundancy), simultaneous processing of up to three HDLC messages, BITS Clock Compliance with Section 13 in G.703, and a fully automated SSM BOC controller, the XRT86VL30 is ideal for operations and management applications where this high level of performance has become an industry standard."

R3 Technology Overview

The XRT86VL30 supports Exar's R3 Technology -- introduced in 2002. Devices using R3 Technology are reconfigurable with integrated termination supporting all common T1/E1/J1 line impedances enabling customers to build a simple board and eliminate the need for external relays for 1:1 and 1+1 redundancy applications. This feature allows final device configuration to be made just prior to line-card installation. This unique capability prevents customers from having to unnecessarily stockpile an inventory of all configurations to accommodate changing market conditions.

Standards Compliance

The device, The XRT86VL30 fully meets all of the latest T1/E1/J1 specifications: ANSI T1/E1.107-1988, ANSI T1/E1.403-1995, ANSI T1/E1.231-1993, ANSI T1/E1.408-1990, AT&T TR 62411 (12-90) TR54016, and ITU G-703, G.704, G706 and G.733, AT&T Pub.43801, and ETS 300 011, 300 233, JT G.703, JTG.704, JT G706, I.431. Extensive test and diagnostic functions include Loop-backs, Boundary scan, Pseudo Random bit sequence (PRBS) test pattern generation, Performance Monitor, Bit Error Rate (BER) meter, forced error insertion, and LAPD unchannelized data payload processing according to ITU-T standard Q.921.

Prices, Packages and Availability

Samples of the XRT86VL30 are available now in a 128-pin LQFP, or 80-pin LQFP package. At 1k volumes the XRT86VL30 is $10.11, and it is a 3.3V, 5V input tolerant device.

Equifax and National Consumer Telecom & Utilities Exchange Extend Agreement Through 2015

ATLANTA, July 21 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Equifax Inc. and The National Consumer Telecom & Utilities Exchange, Inc. (NCTUE) announced today that the NCTUE has extended Equifax's exclusive contract to manage its database until June 10, 2015. Through this relationship, telecommunications, cable and utility companies gain access to consumer payment performance data to identify higher-risk accounts and reduce write-offs, even when traditional credit risk data on consumers is unavailable.

(Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20060224/CLF037LOGO )

"Our members rely on the NCTUE to provide them with data and analytics to support their risk management processes and capture emerging opportunities with today's underbanked market," said Nasser Akari, president of the NCTUE Board. "Our continued relationship represents a significant step toward addressing our membership's needs and we look forward to working with Equifax to deliver a unique 'win-win' solution for the industry."

A member-owned database housed and managed by Equifax, the NCTUE includes consumer default account and contact information from companies that provide cable, electricity/power, phone, gas, water and Internet services. From new account openings to pre-collections activity, the NCTUE leverages its extensive database to help members manage risk across the entire customer lifecycle. The database searches for matches between new residential service applicant information and data from NCTUE members on unpaid, closed or fraudulent accounts.

Enhancements to the exchange database will now capture payment history similar to what happens today in Equifax's consumer reporting file, making it the logical alternative for those members not comfortable with full file reporting. This represents a significant step forward to capturing widespread payment performance data on the unbanked and underbanked market.

"Unique data sources and advanced analytics are a powerful combination for businesses in the telecommunications, cable and utility industries looking for better ways to manage risk and expand their customer reach," said Dann Adams, president, US Consumer Information Solutions, Equifax. "Through our relationship with the NCTUE, Equifax is bringing this combination of data, matching technology and analytics to help these businesses maximize their customer relationships."

In addition to unique data sources, NCTUE members also can take advantage of other benefits including scoring and analytics to assess deposits and identify higher-risk consumer applicants.

Equifax, a leading developer and manager of industry-based exchanges, helped create the NCTUE database in 1997, when the organization was first founded. Today, the NCTUE is a 30 million+ record database.

About NCTUE

On such non-GAAP basis, RADCOM's net loss for the first six months of 2008 was $(2.4) million, or $(0.49) per ordinary share (basic and diluted), compared with $(6.0) million, or $(1.47) per ordinary share (basic and diluted), for the first six months of 2007.

Comments of Management

Commenting on the results, Mr. David Ripstein, RADCOM's President and CEO, said, "We are pleased to have delivered significant year-over-year revenue growth again this quarter, giving us a 47% increase for the first half of the year compared with the first half of 2007. However, these revenues were below our expectations due to sales cycle delays that have accompanied the slowdown of European and North American communications markets. Nonetheless, we have experienced a surge in interest and sales in our target emerging markets - particularly in Latin America and the Far East - that has boosted our sales pipeline significantly, both in the number and size of new opportunities. Further, we believe that our target IMS markets will continue to grow, acting as an engine that will drive our business to the next stage over the next few years."

Mr. Ripstein continued, "From a financial point of view, during the quarter we completed a $2.5 million venture loan and a 4-for-1 stock split, activities that have buttressed our balance sheet and assured our continued access to public markets."

Mr. Ripstein concluded, "The combination of our strengthened sales pipeline, the many new opportunities emerging and our stronger balance sheet enables us to reiterate our expectation that 2008 will be stronger than 2007."

Green, Chief Executive Officer of DATATRAK International, Inc. "We believe the maturation of this industry towards a single platform approach will eventually be realized because this creates optimum efficiencies for clinical trial sponsors and contract research organizations."

Magal Receives an Order to Install A Municipal Command & Control System in an Asian Capital

YAHUD, Israel, July 21 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Magal Security Systems, Ltd. (NASDAQ GMS: MAGS, TASE:MAGS) announced today that it has received an order for the installation of a municipal security command and control system in a capital city in Asia, based on its FORTIS System. The first stage of this order which is expected to be completed by the end of August 2008 is approximately US$ 650,000. Following completion of the initial stage, management expects the project to be expanded, and the total sum of the whole project is expected to reach approximately US$ 3 million.

This order was received following the customer's review of the FORTIS System's performance in a number of major Israeli cities and local municipalities, which systems have been operational since July 2005.

The FORTIS System will integrate the command and control of the security systems in this Asian capital city, while protecting public areas, parks and educational facilities from acts of vandalism, burglary and sabotage, and increasing the sense of security for the residents in the city.

The FORTIS System is based on an advanced technology that includes dozens of sophisticated cameras, unique graphic control-centers, and real-time live video of the protected perimeter zones under alert. The system enables the operator to promptly receive and dispatch live video and alerts, to and from security vehicles, via wide range wireless, consequently optimizing the operational response.

Mr. Izhar Dekel. CEO of Magal said, "This order reinforces Magal's strengths and capabilities as a leading provider of municipal security solutions. Our recent strategy has been to expand our sales efforts for the FORTIS System outside of Israel, and this order marks a significant milestone. We are currently negotiating additional international projects, and this win provides us with a new international reference."

Darwin Announces Privacy//403(SM): A New Solution for Data Privacy, Network Security, and First-Party Business Interruption Risks

FARMINGTON, Conn., July 21 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Darwin Professional Underwriters, Inc. (Darwin), today announces a new solution for health care organizations, financial institutions, and other businesses that utilize data as part of their daily business practices. Darwin's Privacy//403(SM) product offers data privacy and network security liability protection for organizations. This coverage will help the health care and financial services industries in particular -- as they are increasingly using, transmitting, and storing personal and confidential information.

(Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20060829/NETU014LOGO )

The product integrates four critical insurance elements including data privacy, network security liability, media liability; and Darwin's brand new coverage for first-party business interruption costs such as forensic investigative expense, data restoration, extra expense and reduction in business income.

"Even sophisticated data protection systems can be vulnerable to privacy breach and data loss," says Adam Sills, Privacy//403 Lead Underwriter and Product Manager. "These exposures can arise from a variety of events, including merely the loss or theft of a laptop. This is why privacy insurance is such a growth area in the E&O insurance market today."

With greater technological functionality and dependency also comes greater liability and exposure. With the increasing spread of wireless networks, greater usage of laptops, and back-up tapes, now more than ever organizations must be aware of how they can protect their network and confidential information.

Building awareness through education is also fundamental to the success of a privacy liability insurance policy. Darwin partners with Pepper Hamilton, an industry-leading law firm, expert in the privacy and security liability field, to provide policyholders with relevant risk management advice, consultation, loss control education, and procedural development.

"One of Darwin's core values is to assist our clients in mitigating loss. We provide the tools necessary to create appropriate procedures that help our policyholders maintain data privacy and network security," says Susan Chmieleski, Senior Vice President and Risk Management Lead at Darwin. "In fact, our proactive 'client alert' program engages policyholders in loss prevention efforts from day one of the policy period."

Insure.com: State Farm Car Insurance Claims Data Leads to Better Vehicle Design

DARIEN, Ill., July 21 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Insure.com, Inc. revealed today that all car insurance buyers benefit from research done by the nation's largest auto insurer, State Farm.

State Farm handles about 9 million claims a year (about 17 per minute), from stolen cars to fender-benders to total losses.

What's an insurer to do with all those claims? State Farm makes good use of them. For one, the claims data help State Farm set the car insurance premiums for other drivers of those vehicles. For example, do you have a vehicle that's a favorite of thieves? That's reflected in your car insurance bill. But State Farm also uses its wealth of claims data to encourage better and safer car design.

Remember when Ford Explorers with Firestone tires gained national attention in 2000 because of alarming numbers of rollovers? State Farm was the first to sound the alarm bell to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration in 1998.

State Farm regularly communicates with auto makers on what it sees as potential vehicle improvements based on trends in customer claims. When the insurer sees a way a car could be better protected from theft, or a bumper that never survives a crash, or a car with high passenger injuries, it lets car manufacturers know.

"You try to work together and find a common ground," explains State Farm spokesperson Kip Diggs. "Even if they don't acknowledge that the idea came from you. It's a satisfying gig." And it's a gig that stands to benefit all car buyers, not just State Farm customers, through safer vehicles and, ultimately, lower car insurance rates.

Case in point: The Mustang

When Ford was designing its current-generation Mustang in the late '90s, it asked State Farm to look at the design and give an opinion. Earlier Mustangs didn't sport a great safety record and were high on theft lists. State Farm employees tore down the Mustang and made recommendations to Ford (free of charge).

Shortly after the new 2005 Mustang GT came out, State Farm got its hand on one of the first that had been wrecked. (It had been purchased for a 16-year-old in Chicago.) State Farm employees wondered if any of their suggestions had made it into the design.

"We were pleased to see some suggestions made it in," says Diggs, such as the way Ford had affixed panels and hard pieces to the car that makes it easier for the vehicle to be repaired.

A public service

State Farm doesn't charge auto makers for its recommendations, and doesn't even expect a thanks. But for four men in State Farm's Vehicle Research Facility in Bloomington, Ill., it's their lives' work.

State Farm not only examines past claims for problematic vehicles, but it also pulls those vehicles into its research facility and tears them down, looking for clues as to why those vehicles incur extra costs. They tear down 25 to 50 vehicles a year, most of them wrecked or damaged. For example, State Farm employees noticed a couple of years ago that the Chevrolet Cobalt, which shared a platform with the Saturn Ion, performed much better than the Ion in side-impact crashes. State Farm brought the two vehicles into its facility, took them apart, and discovered that Chevrolet had added side reinforcements in the Cobalt, increasing passenger safety.

Figuring out how to keep vehicles safer from theft is also significant work at the State Farm facility.

"If a professional wants your car, he's going to get it," says Diggs. "But if we can find ways to make a car frustrating to get into for a professional, and less attractive to thieves and joyriders, that's worthwhile."

Suggesting ways for auto makers to produce cars with lower repair costs is also a mission. When your damaged car goes into the body shop for repairs, "everything goes by time," says Diggs. "Labor's where the money is. A vehicle that can be repaired more quickly is a vehicle that's going to be less expensive to insure. Even if you're an Allstate or Nationwide customer, you get the benefit of that vehicle."

"State Farm has an interest in seeing cars built to better standards," says Diggs. "Some manufacturers listen, some don't."

Once again we have shown the operational gearing in our business model with operating margins hitting a new record of 40%."

Dr. Lynch concluded: "Despite our conservative approach due to the current macro uncertainty, the fact that our fundamental market dynamics and our pipeline going into the second half remain strong leads us to be comfortable with a positive upgrade with respect to the outlook for the second half of the year. We will review the situation again at the end of Q3."

Gross margins (IFRS) for the second quarter of 2008 were 87%, compared to 89% in the second quarter of 2007. Gross profits (adjusted) for the six months ended June 30, 2008 were $207.8 million, up 64% from $127.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007. Gross margins (adjusted) were 90% in the six months ended June 30, 2008, versus 92% for the six months ended June 30, 2007. Gross profits (IFRS) for the six months ended June 30, 2008 were $197.4 million, up 60% from $123.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007. Gross margins (IFRS) for the six months ended June 30, 2008 were 86%, compared to 89% for the six months ended June 30, 2007.

Net profit (adjusted) for the second quarter of 2008 was $35.4 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, compared to net profit (adjusted) of $18.8 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2007. Net profit (IFRS) for the second quarter of 2008 was $30.5 million, or $0.14 per diluted share, compared to net profit (IFRS) of $16.5 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2007.

Net profit (adjusted) for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was $57.1 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, compared to net profit (adjusted) of $32.1 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2007. Net profit (IFRS) for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was $46.9 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, compared to net profit (IFRS) of $27.5 million, or $0.14 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2007.

Cash balances were $121.4 million at June 30, 2008, an increase of $28.8 million from $92.6 million at December 31, 2007. Movements in cash flow during the half year reflect a combination of good cash generation from operating activities and exercise of share options, offset by the quarterly repayments of Autonomy's bank loan, capital expenditure and instalment tax payments. Autonomy has no net debt.

Receivables for the second quarter of 2008 were $126.6 million, compared to $110.5 million at December 31, 2007. Accounts receivable days sales outstanding were 86 days for the second quarter of 2008, compared to 83 days at December 31, 2007. Deferred revenues were $104.8 million at June 30, 2008, compared with $97.9 million at December 31, 2007.

Although IFRS disclosure provides investors and management with an overall view of Autonomy's financial performance, Autonomy believes that it is important for investors to also understand the performance of Autonomy's fundamental business without giving effect to certain specific, non-recurring and non-cash charges. Consequently, the non-IFRS (adjusted) results exclude share of loss of associates, post-acquisition restructuring costs and non-cash charges for the amortization of purchased intangibles, share-based compensation, foreign exchange gains and losses and associated tax effects. Management uses the adjusted results to assess the financial performance of Autonomy's operational business activities.

Q2 Product Sales

Autonomy's infrastructure technology has been adopted by enterprises to process information across all internal and external data formats and sources. During the second quarter of 2008, major customer wins included: KPMG, Societe Generale, Shanghai Patent Office, Huron, St Jude, Nationwide Insurance, eBay, Fox Media Group, Ernst & Young, McKinsey, Qualcomm, Ford, Toyota, GE Healthcare, Wells Fargo, the British Museum and TNT.

Autonomy's OEM Program continued to grow during Q2 2008. Agreements were signed with eleven customers during the quarter, including new and extended agreements with Nortel, Talisma, Verdasys and Yahoo!.

Q2 Corporate Developments

During the second quarter of 2008 Autonomy continued to extend its market leadership with the introduction of key new and upgraded technologies, including:

- The industry's first information governance platform that automates real-time policy management based on forming a conceptual and contextual understanding of all enterprise information; - The industry's first pan-enterprise search platform for legal eDiscovery and information access, enabling search across all sources of electronically stored information, finding relevant information for litigation with auditable and repeatable results, and applying a litigation hold function to preserve data from normally scheduled or ad hoc deletion. - Introduction of the industry's most scalable end-to-end hosted eDiscovery solution, with 6,000 servers across five data centers providing hosted eDiscovery solutions for the largest and most complex legal and regulatory matters; - New and enhanced features for Autonomy Virage's Command and Control, a complete infrastructure platform for security and surveillance operations; and - Autonomy etalk's Qfiniti interaction recording being certified compliant with key contact center solutions from Avaya. During the second quarter Autonomy was recognized in multiple ways for its market leadership and unmatched technology, including: - Being named the leader in the May 2008 Forrester Wave(TM): Enterprise Search, Q2 2008 report, receiving the highest score in all three categories, which include current offering, strategy and market presence, as well as the highest scores for its administration and security capabilities, product strategy and financial resources to support strategy; - Being named the leader in the enterprise information access market by industry analyst Ovum, ranked by its market position and breadth of functional scope and appropriateness for the enterprise; - Autonomy etalk's Intelligent Contact Center solution was named recipient of the 2008 CRM Excellence Award by Technology Marketing Corporation (TMC)'s Customer Interaction Solutions(R) magazine; - Autonomy's Cardiff division was named a "Cool Vendor" in the recent Gartner report titled "Cools Vendors in Business Process Management, 2008"; and - Autonomy's Cardiff division attained Gold Certified Partner status in the Microsoft Partner Program with a competency in Business Process and Integration. Six Month Important Events

During the first half of 2008 the key events in the company's development have been the implementation of the company's business plan and successful integration of acquisitions completed during 2007. As expected, market drivers of regulatory changes such as the U.S. Federal Rules of Civil Procedure have resulted in a convergence of legal and operational information systems, leading to some of the largest deals in the company's history, and driving growth in the company's OEM business.

Risk Factors

As with all businesses, the Group is affected by certain risks, not wholly within our control, which could have a material impact on the Group's long term performance and could cause actual results to differ materially from forecast and historic results.

The principal risks and uncertainties facing the Group have not changed from those set out in the Annual Report and Accounts 2007. These include: dependence on our core technology; competition; levels of operational spending versus revenues; market conditions; average selling price; economic and market conditions; reliance on value added resellers; continued service of our executive directors; hiring and retention of qualified personnel; product errors or defects; problems encountered in connection with potential acquisitions; and intellectual property claims.

In addition to the foregoing, the primary risk and uncertainty related to the Group's performance for the remainder of the year is the challenging macro economic environment, which could have a material impact on the Group's performance over the remaining six months of the financial year and could cause actual results to differ materially from expected and historical results. This effect has been offset during the first six months of the year to some extent by the legal, regulatory and compliance issues which have arisen for enterprises in connection with the current economic environment.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED SET OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED 30 JUNE 2008- UNAUDITED

1. General information

The information for the year ended December 31, 2007 does not constitute statutory accounts as defined in section 240 of the Companies Act 1985. A copy of the statutory accounts for that year has been delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The auditors' report on those accounts was not qualified and did not contain statements under section 237(2) or (3) of the Companies Act 1985.

The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for future operating periods. The condensed financial statements should be read in connection with the company's audited Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2007.

2. Accounting policies

The annual financial statements of Autonomy Corporation plc are prepared in accordance with IFRSs as adopted by the European Union. The condensed set of financial statements included in this quarterly report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting' as adopted by the European Union. The same accounting policies, presentation methods of computation are followed in the condensed set of financial statements as applied in the Group's latest annual audited financial statements.

3. Segmental information

Whilst the group currently operates under a number of different divisions, the group's core technology, types of revenue and associated costs and returns are comparable. Each of these divisions is founded on the group's unique Intelligent Data Operating Layer, the group's core infrastructure for automating the handling of all forms of unstructured information. As a result, the group maintains only one reportable business segment. The group's operations are located primarily in the United Kingdom, the US and Canada. The company also has a significant presence in a number of other European countries as well as China, Japan, Singapore and Australia.

The following table provides an analysis of the group's sales by geographical market based upon the location of the Group's customers for all periods.

Three Months Six Months Ended Ended (unaudited) (unaudited) June June 30, June June 30, 30, 2007 30, 2007 2008 2008 Revenue by region: $'000 $'000 $'000 (restated) $'000 (restated) Americas............... 81,517 45,616 145,419 84,171 Rest of World.................. 44,132 27,639 85,318 54,559 Total................. 125,649 73,255 230,737 138,730

The quarterly report in Q2 2007 presented the above on the basis of the location of the Group's assets. As noted in the 2007 annual report, the directors have changed the presentation as they believe the revised presentation to be more appropriate under IAS 14. The financial impact of this restatement has been to reallocate approximately $4.0 million and $6.7 million of revenues from Americas to the Rest of World for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively.

7. Related Party Transactions

There have been no related party transactions or changes in related party transactions described in the latest annual report that could have a material effect on the financial position or performance of the Group in the first six months of the financial year.

------------------------------------------------ Statement of Directors' Responsibility We confirm that to the best of our knowledge:

(a) the condensed set of financial statements has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting";

(b) the interim management report includes a fair review of the information required by DTR 4.2.7 (indication of important events during the first six months and description of principal risks and uncertainties for the remaining six months of the year); and

(c) the interim management report includes a fair review of the information required by DTR 4.2.8 (disclosure of related parties' transactions and changes therein).

By order of the Board Dr Michael R Lynch Sushovan T Hussain Chief Executive Officer Chief Financial Officer July 21, 2008 July 21, 2008 INDEPENDENT REVIEW REPORT TO AUTONOMY CORPORATION PLC

We have been engaged by the company to review the condensed set of financial statements in the interim financial report for the three and six months ended 30 June 2008 which comprises the consolidated income statement, the consolidated balance sheet, the consolidated statement of changes in equity, the consolidated cash flow statement and related notes 1 to 7. We have read the other information contained in the interim financial report and considered whether it contains any apparent misstatements or material inconsistencies with the information in the condensed set of interim financial statements.

This report is made solely to the company in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements 2410 issued by the Auditing Practices Board. Our work has been undertaken so that we might state to the company those matters we are required to state to them in an independent review report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company, for our review work, for this report, or for the conclusions we have formed.

Directors' responsibilities

The interim financial report is the responsibility of, and has been approved by, the directors. The directors are responsible for preparing the interim financial report in accordance with the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the United Kingdoms' Financial Services Authority.

As disclosed in note 2, the annual financial statements of the group are prepared in accordance with IFRSs as adopted by the European Union. The condensed set of financial statements included in this interim financial report has been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, "Interim Financial Reporting," as adopted by the European Union.

Our responsibility

Our responsibility is to express to the Company a conclusion on the condensed set of financial statements in the interim financial report based on our review.

Scope of Review

We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements (UK and Ireland) 2410, "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" issued by the Auditing Practices Board for use in the United Kingdom. A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland) and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the condensed set of financial statements in the interim financial report for the three and six months ended 30 June 2008 is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 as adopted by the European Union and the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom's Financial Services Authority.

Verizon Business Receives Prestigious British Standards Institution Designation for Information Security ManagementDelivers Strong Security Offerings and Professional Service Capabilities

BASKING RIDGE, N.J., July 21 /PRNewswire/ -- Verizon Business joins only a handful of companies around the world to be recognized by BSI Management Systems -- the world's leading international standards, testing, registration and certification organization -- as a leading provider of information security management.

BSI has inducted Verizon Business into its Associate Consultant Program (ACP) for ISO/IEC 27001, an internationally recognized and publicly vetted information security standard utilized in the development of information security management systems. Acceptance into the program denotes that Verizon Business passed a rigorous review of its comprehensive security portfolio and professional security capabilities.

Only an elite group of vendors, which must have a proven track record of offering strong value and performance to customers, are accepted into the BSI Associate Consultant Program.

Verizon Business delivers unmatched security expertise and capabilities to customers. Verizon Business security experts are among the best in the industry -- and the world -- when it comes to security and risk management. Many of these experts hold the Holistic Information Security Practitioner (HISP) certification, which educates practitioners on best practices for implementing multiple industry standards and regulatory requirements for information security and privacy, as well as how to integrate the ISO 27000 Series of Information Security Standards with these security standards and requirements.

Additionally, Verizon Business is one of the few security providers with a truly global footprint. The 1,100-plus security team operates around the world, supported by five state-of-the-art security operations centers (SOCs), more than 200 data centers and one of the world's most expansive IP networks.

"We've heard time and again from security executives around the world that the ISO Information Security Standard is the pre-eminent standard against which they measure their security programs," said Kerry Bailey, vice president of Verizon Business Security Solutions. "As such, Verizon Business is pleased to further embrace this critical global standard. The synergy between our holistic approach to security and the ISO Information Security Standard makes us a natural fit to join the BSI Associated Consultant Program."

Delivering a One-Two Punch With ISO 27000 Series of Information Security Standards

Verizon Business embraces ISO 27001 when developing information security programs for its customers. Its professional service experts work closely with their customers to intimately understand their business and then apply the principles of ISO 27001 in constructing an individualized security program framework.

Once the foundation is laid, Verizon Business helps customers implement a set of actual security controls, governed by the ISO 27002 Code of Practice for Information Security Management, through Verizon Business' complementary Security Management Program (SMP).

SMP, an integral part of the Verizon Business security portfolio, helps reduce risk through a proactive, programmatic approach to security. Verizon Business recently incorporated the ISO 27002 into the latest version of SMP. ISO 27002 now provides the basis for evaluating SMP customer security processes and procedures, allowing the customers to manage, monitor and align their security controls with the global standard.

Together, ISO 27001 and 27002 help to define information security best practices across an organization to better safeguard the integrity, confidentiality and availability of critical company data.

AT&T U-verse Arrives in South FloridaMiami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach County Customers Benefit From Advanced Technology, Compelling Features and Video Choice

MIAMI, July 21 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- South Florida residents have a new -- and better -- choice for their television and communications services. AT&T Inc. today announced the launch of AT&T U-verse(SM) TV and AT&T U-verse High Speed Internet in parts of Miami-Dade and Broward counties. AT&T U-verse services will be launched in Palm Beach County on July 28. AT&T U-verse brings together your TV, broadband and AT&T wireless services -- all on one bill -- with unique features that provide a new level of integration, convenience and control. AT&T U-verse TV and High Speed Internet services are delivered over AT&T's advanced Internet Protocol (IP) network.

Customers can currently order AT&T U-verse services in parts of dozens of communities in Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach counties. U-verse services will be installed for Palm Beach County customers beginning July 28. AT&T will make U-verse services available to more homes throughout South Florida on an ongoing basis.

"AT&T has made a commitment to help customers in the Southeast benefit from faster and wider delivery of innovative new services like AT&T U-verse," said Rob Bentley, AT&T vice president and general manager for the Southeast region. "Our customers will reap the rewards when they experience AT&T U-verse TV. We look forward to expanding U-verse services and video choice to more customers in the Southeast."

AT&T is the only national service provider to offer a 100 percent IP-based television (IPTV) service. IP technology helps make AT&T U-verse TV one of the most dynamic and feature-rich services available today, with advanced capabilities that customers don't get from other providers and access to more than 45 High Definition (HD) channels.

"Florida consumers have asked for video competition and today AT&T is delivering," said Marshall Criser III, AT&T Florida president. "Now Florida consumers can make a choice and take advantage of U-verse TV's extensive channel lineup and unmatched features. It's all about delivering a better TV experience."

Where available, local AT&T U-verse customers can enjoy numerous TV benefits, including:

-- An attractive selection of TV packages and 100 percent digital TV service.

(More receivers can be added for $5 each a month.) -- A Spanish-language package, Paquete Espanol, which features novelas, movies, news, sports, children's programming, talk shows and more, for $10 a month. -- More HD channels than the major local cable providers, with an extensive lineup of more than 45 HD channels. U-verse TV supports both 720p and 1080i formats. Access to HD service is $10 a month with any U- verse TV package. -- The ability to record up to four programs at once using a DVR (up to four standard definition programs or two HD and two standard definition programs) -- another feature that is exclusive to AT&T U-verse TV. -- The ability to set your DVR from any location. With AT&T Yahoo! Web and Mobile Remote Access to DVR, you can schedule recordings from any Web-connected PC or compatible AT&T mobile phone (wireless service charges apply) by using your AT&T High Speed Internet account. -- AT&T Online Photos from Flickr, which allows you to simply and conveniently browse the photos you've uploaded to flickr.com and watch slide shows on your U-verse TV screen from the comfort of your couch. -- AT&T U-bar, which brings customizable weather, stock, sports and traffic information to the U-verse TV screen, without interrupting the current program. AT&T High Speed Internet subscribers can personalize the U-bar from the AT&T portal to display weather at specific locations, your personal stock portfolio and scores for your favorite sports teams. -- YELLOWPAGES.COM TV, for fast and easy searches to find local businesses and other information via your TV screen. -- AT&T Yahoo!

All U-verse receivers are HD-capable and include universal remote controls with backlit buttons and one-touch access to VOD, recorded TV and other popular U-verse features.

AT&T U-verse offers multiple combinations of TV and Internet packages to customize your experience. U-verse TV offers five programming packages - U100, U200, the popular U300 and U400 packages, plus U-family, a market-leading family-friendly programming option. Current AT&T U-verse TV pricing starts at $44 a month, depending on the selected programming package (taxes, fees and other monthly charges apply). U-verse services offer everyday low pricing, with no term commitment required.

Professional installation is included for new U-verse TV customers, and you also get a 30-day money-back guarantee. Customers who order a qualifying programming package by phone through Sept. 20, 2008, are eligible to choose a free month of the U200, U300 or U400 package or a $50 cash-back redemption by gift check. Customers who order a qualifying TV package online will receive a free month of the TV package. Additional cash-back offers are available to qualifying customers who bundle Internet service.

AT&T U-verse High Speed Internet offers more bandwidth and faster available speeds to meet the needs of every consumer or small business broadband user, including four package options:

-- Max: Downstream speeds up to 10.0 Mbps, upstream speeds up to 1.5 Mbps -- Elite: Downstream speeds up to 6.0 Mbps, upstream speeds up to 1.0 Mbps -- Pro: Downstream speeds up to 3.0 Mbps, upstream speeds up to 1.0 Mbps -- Express: Downstream speeds up to 1.5 Mbps, upstream speeds up to 1.0 Mbps

All AT&T U-verse High Speed Internet packages include wireless home or office networking at no extra cost, giving customers the freedom to access online photos, receive and send large data files, view streaming video and access other high-bandwidth applications from a wireless-enabled laptop or other device. Subscribers also receive virtually unlimited e-mail storage, powerful anti-virus and anti-spam software and access to the nation's largest Wi-Fi network with free unlimited connectivity at more than 17,000 hot spot locations.

AT&T is introducing U-verse services in Florida as a result of legislation supported by Representative Trey Traviesa and state Senator Mike Bennett that was signed into law by Governor Crist. The Consumer Choice Act of 2007, House Bill 529, provides an environment that encourages new video providers, such as AT&T, to invest in Florida to compete against incumbent cable providers.

AT&T is deploying next-generation AT&T U-verse services as part of its mission to connect people with their world, everywhere they live and work, and do it better than anyone else. Through AT&T U-verse and the company's 100 percent IP platform, consumers will benefit from integrated AT&T services across the three screens they value most: the TV, the PC and the wireless phone.

Verizon Business Receives Prestigious British Standards Institution Designation for Information Security Management

BASKING RIDGE, New Jersey, July 21 /PRNewswire/ --

- Delivers Strong Security Offerings and Professional Service Capabilities

Verizon Business joins only a handful of companies around the world to be recognized by BSI Management Systems -- the world's leading international standards, testing, registration and certification organization -- as a leading provider of information security management.

BSI has inducted Verizon Business into its Associate Consultant Program (ACP) for ISO/IEC 27001, an internationally recognized and publicly vetted information security standard utilized in the development of information security management systems. Acceptance into the program denotes that Verizon Business passed a rigorous review of its comprehensive security portfolio and professional security capabilities.

Only an elite group of vendors, which must have a proven track record of offering strong value and performance to customers, are accepted into the BSI Associate Consultant Program.

Verizon Business delivers unmatched security expertise and capabilities to customers. Verizon Business security experts are among the best in the industry -- and the world -- when it comes to security and risk management. Many of these experts hold the Holistic Information Security Practitioner (HISP) certification, which educates practitioners on best practices for implementing multiple industry standards and regulatory requirements for information security and privacy, as well as how to integrate the ISO 27000 Series of Information Security Standards with these security standards and requirements.

Additionally, Verizon Business is one of the few security providers with a truly global footprint. The 1,100-plus security team operates around the world, supported by five state-of-the-art security operations centers (SOCs), more than 200 data centers and one of the world's most expansive IP networks.

"We've heard time and again from security executives around the world that the ISO Information Security Standard is the pre-eminent standard against which they measure their security programs," said Kerry Bailey, vice president of Verizon Business Security Solutions. "As such, Verizon Business is pleased to further embrace this critical global standard. The synergy between our holistic approach to security and the ISO Information Security Standard makes us a natural fit to join the BSI Associated Consultant Program."

Delivering a One-Two Punch With ISO 27000 Series of Information Security Standards

Verizon Business embraces ISO 27001 when developing information security programs for its customers. Its professional service experts work closely with their customers to intimately understand their business and then apply the principles of ISO 27001 in constructing an individualized security program framework.

Once the foundation is laid, Verizon Business helps customers implement a set of actual security controls, governed by the ISO 27002 Code of Practice for Information Security Management, through Verizon Business' complementary Security Management Program (SMP).

SMP, an integral part of the Verizon Business security portfolio, helps reduce risk through a proactive, programmatic approach to security. Verizon Business recently incorporated the ISO 27002 into the latest version of SMP. ISO 27002 now provides the basis for evaluating SMP customer security processes and procedures, allowing the customers to manage, monitor and align their security controls with the global standard.

Together, ISO 27001 and 27002 help to define information security best practices across an organization to better safeguard the integrity, confidentiality and availability of critical company data.
