Press Release Summary = WANdisco SCM Suite's Enterprise Edition Solutions for CVS,
Subversion and CVSNT
Provide Security Features that Protect Intellectual Property and Support Ongoing
Compliance

Press Release Body = PLEASANTON, Calif. March 9, 2006 - WANdisco, the leader in
real-time multi-site development solutions, today announced the release of its new
SCM Suite Enterprise Edition security features for CVS, Subversion and CVSNT.

In this era of offshore outsourcing it is imperative that companies are able to
protect their valuable intellectual property. In addition, companies are also
facing new regulatory requirements imposed by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX) that are
having an impact on IT organizations. In order to respond to these challenges, IT
organizations must be able to control and track access to source code. With
WANdisco's new security features, which build upon WANdisco's unique multi-site
development solutions, organizations are now able to achieve this.

WANdisco's Enterprise Edition provides full authorization, authentication, access
control and audit capabilities that go well beyond the security features that CVS,
Subversion, or CVSNT provide on their own. Administrators can implement and
maintain the most complex security policies across all development sites with a
minimum of effort. Single sign-on is supported by integration with LDAP and other
authentication servers. Once the security configuration is defined it can be
replicated automatically to all sites. Groups, roles and users can be defined and
fine grained access control can be implemented down to the branch, module, source
code file, or client ip address levels, to ensure the segregation of duties that
auditors look for.
"As the source of version history truth, the SCM system is the nexus of any
traceability effort," said Carey Schwaber, Forrester Analyst.

WANdisco automates this traceability effort by providing online audit reports that
track:

. What access rights users have

. When access rights were changed and by whom

. User access history showing when source code files were accessed by a user over a
given time period, and what commands were used

. User access violations including: userid, ipAddress of system from which access
was attempted, files accessed, branches accessed, command used, and date and time
of unauthorized access attempt.

About WANdisco

Since 2001 WANdisco has set out to push the limits of what can be achieved with
distributed systems deployed on a Wide Area Network (WAN). The result of these
efforts is new technology that fundamentally changes the way distributed nodes, or
servers, interact to provide unprecedented levels of reliability, availability and
scalability (RAS) enabling the internet to realize its full potential. WANdisco has
applied this technology to the development of its suite of multi-site SCM solutions
for CVS, CVSNT, and Subversion. For the first time a development team can truly be
spread-out across the world and work as one unit, in real-time.

Global 2000 companies rely on WANdisco's suite of SCM solutions for CVS,CVSNT and
Subversion to enable them to distribute work based on where their talent is located,
rather than on the basis of time-zone constraints. This results in dramatically
reduced costs and significantly improved utilization of scarce resources. For more
