PRESS RELEASE

SUNNYVALE, Calif. — Sept. 22, 2011 — Centrify Corporation, the leading provider of security and compliance solutions that centrally control, secure and audit cross-platform systems and applications using Active Directory, today announced it has been awarded patent #8,024,360 from the United States Patent and Trademark Office. The patented technology is a method and apparatus for maintaining multiple sets of identity data. It provides the key underpinnings for Centrify DirectControl’s Zones feature that delivers both access management and identity migration and consolidation in a non-intrusive manner.

“Prior to Centrify’s patented Zones capabilities, technologies that bridged Active Directory to non-Microsoft systems forced IT organizations into a painful and cost prohibitive process of rationalizing their fractured identity namespace,” said Tom Kemp, CEO of Centrify. “Analysts called this the ‘UID Problem,’ but with Centrify DirectControl’s Zones, IT organizations can quickly and easily consolidate identities by mapping a user’s multiple UIDs to a single Active Directory identity, saving considerable time and effort in bridging disparate platforms together and avoiding a painful migration. Both our patented Zones as well as our patented user mapping mode capabilities are the clear preferred ways to integrate non-Microsoft systems into Active Directory.”
