M-Tech and Eurekify Announce New Partnership

M-Tech and Eurekify Team Up to Provide Enhanced Role Management

Calgary, AB - August 29, 2006 -- M-Tech Information Technology, Inc., a leading provider of identity management (IdM) solutions, and Eurekify, the pioneer and leading provider of automated role engineering, role management, and compliance solutions, are pleased to announce that they have signed a partnership agreement.

Under the terms of the partnership, M-Tech and Eurekify will offer an integrated solution for user provisioning, role mining and role lifecycle management. The integrated solution will also enable customers to meet regulatory compliance requirements by measuring and responding to variance between model-based and actual user privileges, and by identifying violations of defined policies and regulations.

The demand for Role-based IDM is growing, and M-Tech integrates best of breed in IdM and RM. The integrated solution will combine the ID-Synch user provisioning solution from M-Tech and the Eurekify Sage Enterprise Role Manager solution from Eurekify. It will enable organizations to more quickly define and more easily maintain an enterprise role model, using advanced pattern recognition technology. Eurekify's auditing and compliance analytics will also enable simpler, more intuitive review of excess and inappropriate privileges, which will feed into M-Tech's ID-Certify product for review and remediation by business stake-holders.

"I am excited about extending our partnership with M-Tech," says Eurekify CEO, Azi Cohan. "I am confident that M-Tech customers that are already accustomed to rapid deployment will appreciate the efficient role management features in Eurekify Sage Enterprise Role Manager."

"Our partnership with Eurekify will enable our customers to pursue a more formal approach to privilege modeling and policy enforcement," says Gideon Shoham, M-Tech CEO. "By automating role discovery and lifecycle management, we hope to make this approach to identity management more accessible and affordable, to a wider range of organizations."
