A Global Media Company Purchases the Hitachi ID Identity Management Suite

Calgary, Alberta (ots/PRNewswire) -

Hitachi ID is pleased to announce that one of the world's largest
marketing and media companies - a European-based, multi-billion
dollar enterprise, purchased the Hitachi ID Identity Management Suite
for implementation throughout their business worldwide.

"Due to contract confidentiality stipulations, we are unable to
release the name of the company," says Gideon Shoham, CEO of Hitachi
ID Systems. "Closing business with such a major global enterprise is
a perfect example of our recent sales trend. A billion-dollar,
distributed company with hundreds of offices around the world must
have highly scalable, stable, cost-effective and extremely reliable
IT security systems. We are delighted that our Identity and Access
Management solutions have exceeded all expectations of this customer
in a proof of concept (POC) against all leading vendors."

The company has a global SharePoint project which requires the
storage of all user identities in the Active Directory (AD). The
Hitachi ID suite was able to recreate an LDAP structure within the AD
for close to 100,000 users. Hitachi ID's scalability and unsurpassed
number of connectors, all included in the base price, were decisive
factors leading to this deal.

"Hitachi ID's Identity Management Suite provided all functionality
we needed and far exceeded all other solutions," states a senior
executive of the global media company. "We had a challenging time
finding a solution that could support our Lotus Notes(R) installation
as well as meet all our other challenging requirements. Once we
tested Hitachi ID's solutions, the decision to purchase was quite
obvious."
