FileKeeper Announces Availability of FileKeeper Enterprise 2.5; Latest release of FileKeeper offers continuous data protection of open files, enhanced security and a more compact agent.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- FileKeeper, Inc., a leading provider of continuous data protection software for Microsoft Windows-based laptop and desktop PCs, today announced the release of FileKeeper Enterprise 2.5.

Unlike traditional backup and restore solutions that require human intervention to try to keep files current, FileKeeper has revolutionized data protection through its user-free, continuous protection technology. Organizations today that support mobile and remote office users leverage FileKeeper to continuously protect information stored on the local hard drives of their Microsoft Windows laptops and remote office desktop computers.

With the release of version 2.5, FileKeeper has extended its industry-leading technology with the addition of significant new functionality. Version 2.5 now provides organizations with the ability to provide continuous protection for Microsoft Windows-based applications that keep their data files open during use; such as Microsoft Office Outlook, Microsoft Outlook Express, Microsoft Office Access, Lotus Notes, and others.

"By combining Microsoft System Center Data Protection Manager 2006 with FileKeeper Enterprise, we were able to deliver a comprehensive, continuous data protection solution for files stored on our laptops, desktop computers and network file servers," said Jon Duren, chief technology officer for IdleAire Technologies. "FileKeeper Enterprise 2.5 adds the ability to protect Office Outlook Personal Folders, which are commonly used by our mobile sales and service personnel."

"FileKeeper Enterprise 2.5 complements Microsoft System Center Data Protection Manager 2006 by providing users with the ability to continuously back up files stored on the local hard drives of their laptops and desktop PCs to a protected Windows file server," said Bill Shelton, group product manager, Windows Enterprise Management Division at Microsoft Corp.

Among the major new and enhanced features in FileKeeper Enterprise 2.5 are:

--Open File Protection Support: FileKeeper's Open File Protection (OFP) technology provides periodic near continuous protection of open files including Office Outlook Personal Folders (.pst files), Office Access Database Files, etc. while those files are in use.

--Data Encryption: provides administrators with the ability to have data files encrypted before they are transmitted over their enterprise network and stored on a secure FileKeeper backup location.

--Improved Desktop/Laptop Agent: provides users with a more compact software agent for Windows desktop and laptop PCs and eliminates the need to install separate database downloads end-user computers.

"Version 2.5 continues FileKeeper's industry leadership by offering an enterprise class, scalable and secure solution for organizations that wish to extend their disaster recovery and backup procedures to mobile and remote office users," said Ken Cross, president and CEO of FileKeeper, Inc.
