Brandimensions Opens Singapore Office and Adds Support for 15 Languages Extending Its Management and Protection of Global Brands.

TORONTO -- Helps Customers Effectively Address the Misuse of Global Brands on the Internet and Quickly Shut Down Phishing Attacks

Brandimensions Inc., an international leader in the online brand protection and market intelligence industries, today announced the opening of a new office in Singapore City, Singapore. The new office further broadens Brandimensions' global footprint and showcases the company's ability to monitor and manage brand assets around the world.

The explosive growth of the Internet has opened up new markets for brandholders and has made it easier for consumers to communicate on a global scale. This growth has left brandholders vulnerable to security risks from around the world - such as brand infringement, intellectual property theft, identity theft and phishing attacks. With many of Brandimensions clients now working to protect a global brand, the company is aligning its business model to meet the demands of its customers on a worldwide scale. Brandimensions believes that global coverage is now an essential component to protecting a company's brand and image.

According to reports from the Anti-Phishing Working Group, phishing and brand mimicking are on the rise each month and are affecting financial institutions, retailers and Internet service providers (ISPs). While the majority of attacks come from the United States, the number of perpetrators from China, Korea and Taiwan are increasing rapidly. Brandimensions' broad language support and extensive relationships with international ISPs allows for the quick shut down of phishing attacks and other online misuses of brands anywhere in the world. Brandimensions now supports 16 languages including English, Russian, German, Yugoslavian, Croatian, Serbian, French, Swedish, Italian, Cantonese, Mandarin, Singhalese, Taiwanese, Korean, Hebrew and Arabic.

"We know attacks and infringement on our customer's brands extend far beyond the borders of the United States," said Bradley Silver, CEO for Brandimensions. "By expanding our reach to Asia, we will be able to better address phishing attacks as well as a host of other brand related issues - such as brand messaging, market analysis, and reputation management. The expansion will allow us to better help our customers harness the international marketing and brand opportunities the Internet has created. By monitoring global brand perceptions, customers will be able to better understand and target their end-users as well as develop a consistent brand message on the Internet. Equally important, the new office helps us meet the growing demand for our services with the addition of new multi-lingual analysts and ensures 24-hour phishing and brand monitoring support for customers."

Brandimensions' office in Singapore will monitor and handle all business in Asia Pacific, and allow the company to continue to expand into other international markets. In addition, the office will provide support to Brandimensions' North American client base through data analysis and 24 x 7 phishing attack management. The office, which is located in Singapore city, is currently staffed with two senior managers and will soon have 150 data analysts under its employ.

Brandimensions offers the most comprehensive phishing attack management solutions available by combining its ability to fight threats on a global scale with its phishing detection technology and human intervention to shut down attacks. This unique approach provides customers with the most cost-effective solution and the industry's fastest response times.
