 29.04.2010 MARLBOROUGH, MA, April 27, 2010— Netezza Corporation (NYSE: NZ), the global leader in data warehouse, analytic and monitoring appliances, today announced the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office granted a patent to Netezza on March 2, 2010 for Real-time Mitigation of Data Access Insider Intrusions. This patented technology is a core component of the Netezza® Mantra® and Netezza® TwinFin™ families of appliances.

Threats to core data assets that result in unauthorized data access or the loss of sensitive data continue to rise. Netezza’s latest patented technology enables enterprises to easily and efficiently specify compliance controls and security policies and implement multiple mitigation responses. The Netezza Mantra solution uses a holistic view of data access to more effectively identify attacks. The Mantra appliance’s policy management framework includes “anomaly” and “signature” attributes that capture sophisticated behavioral characteristics of illegitimate data access.

“This latest patent underscores Netezza’s commitment to providing businesses with the most sophisticated threat identification and mitigation capabilities, while requiring the fewest appliances and resources,” said Prat Moghe, vice president and general manager of the Data Compliance division at Netezza. “The Mantra solution’s unparalleled scalability and ease-of-use continue to drive down the total cost of ownership associated with database activity monitoring.”

The Netezza Mantra appliance, with its patented and patent-pending technologies, provides all the tenets for comprehensive enterprise database activity monitoring. For data owners, compliance officers, and security officers, the Netezza Mantra solution delivers:

    * Critical data discovery of heterogeneous databases such as Netezza, Oracle, SQL Server, DB2, Sybase, and MySQL;
    * Continuous monitoring and auditing of access to critical data;
    * Analysis, detection and protection against any non-compliant activity or data theft; and
    * Ready-to-use data compliance reports for SOX, PCI, HIPAA, FISMA, GLBA, and many other regulatory requirements.
