MEDIQUANT INC. PARTNERS WITH CLEARDATA NETWORKS TO PROVIDE SECURE LEGACY DATA MANAGEMENT SOLUTIONS

Leverages cloud hosting and storage platform for Active Archive solution

PHOENIX, AZ & RICHFIELD, OH - July 27, 2011 - ClearDATA Networks, Inc., a leading provider of cloud computing and information security services for the healthcare industry, has entered into a strategic partnership with MediQuant, Inc. a data life cycle management solutions provider, for cloud based application hosting and secure data storage for their Medical Necessity Content and Software applications - DataArk, First Comply and AccuRules.

ClearDATA's deep expertise in information security and HIPAA compliance is a strong technological complement to MediQuant's data lifecycle management solutions. The partnership provides customers with secure, cost effective offsite storage of legacy data that is fully accessible without the burden of managing on-premise servers and storage.

"Data security is the core of our value proposition." said Darin Brannan, CEO ClearDATA Networks. "It's imperative that data be secure throughout its entire lifecycle, including its archival stage which may need to be retained for up to 10 years. The partnership with MediQuant gives the customer a HIPAA compliant data archival solution that is low maintenance and cost efficient."

DataArk, MediQuant's flagship product, is an "Active Archiving" application designed to allow healthcare organizations to utilize their legacy data when transitioning to new or updated information systems. Typically, a server is required to manage the application and data during the decommissioning period. The partnership enables the data to be stored off-site in ClearDATA's hosting centers with full accessibility by the client's application servers. As a cloud-based service, storage requirements are dynamically adjusted to the customer needs. As the data is fully decommissioned and encrypted for final archival storage, the storage requirements are minimized and cost efficiently managed for the remainder of the compliancy period.

"The MediQuant and ClearDATA partnership provides a seamless technology solution for our customers." said Tony Paparella, President of MediQuant. "DataArk on its own can save a customer up to 80% in legacy system costs. With ClearDATA hosting solutions, the value can be even stronger." The companies will be engaging in joint sales and marketing campaigns with both sales teams offering bundled solutions of the products.
