GuardTime Keyless Signatures Selected by Cernam to Deliver the World's First Pur pose-Built System for Capturing Online

Evidence Cernam's integration of GuardTime Keyless Signatures allows for the preservation of online content as legal evidence, delivering proof of integrity for a unique ly fragile form of digital data. Singapore Dublin, Wednesday - August 24, 2011 -- GuardTime ( http://www.guardt ime.com ), creator of Keyless Signature technology providing indisputable proof of time, origin, and data integrity for the worlds electronic information, today announced that its Keyless Signature technology has been adopted by Cernam, crea tors of the first purpose-built system for capturing and preserving evidence fro m online sources. Cernams technology enables investigators, attorneys and governm ent agencies to capture online content in a forensically-sound manner and the ad dition of GuardTimes Keyless Signature technology ( http://www.guardtime.com ) wi ll provide cryptographically secure digital signatures, providing built-in tampe r detection for all evidence captured using Cernams system. When dealing with digital evidence, courts require forensic rigor in the collect ion of data, the capture of full and accurate content, the preservation of metad ata, and the production of data as it originally existed. Cernam has designed it s system from the ground up to meet these requirements and will now enhance its core technology by adding Keyless Signatures to provide mathematical proof of in tegrity, thereby removing the unnecessary reliance on trust. Organizations dealing with online content as evidence can now leverage Cernams "C apture & Preserve" technology to collect evidence from websites, message boards, social networking sites, online productivity tools and web-based enterprise sys tems. By utilizing a purpose-built system which includes GuardTimes Keyless Signa ture technology for proof of time and integrity, organizations can abandon evide ntially-flawed methods such as screenshots and printouts, raising online content to the level of evidence experienced with email or hard disk forensics. Attaching a GuardTime Keyless Signature ( http://www.guardtime.com ) to every it em of evidence captured and preserved in the evidence container produced by the system, Cernam "Capture & Preserve" collects and packages the entire content of a web page or other online resource in an evidentially sound manner, providing s urvivable third-party verification of time and integrity without the reliance on any specific technology providers. "When we set out to create the first purpose-built system to capture and preserv e online evidence we knew we had to play to our strengths: the principles of dig ital evidence, modern web technologies and the use of digital evidence. We equal ly knew that we needed to integrate proven technology for secure digital timesta mps and proof of integrity, rather than attempting to roll our own," said Owen OCo nnor, founder and managing director of Cernam. OConnor continued: "GuardTime represents the ideal partner for Cernam since their Keyless Signature technology gives us two proof points which are fundamental to digital forensics and investigations: a) the exact point in time when evidence was collected; and b) proof that the evidence has not been changed or tampered w ith since the time it was collected." Cernam Capture & Preserve is currently in beta and will be released in late 2011 . For details of Cernams online evidence technology, visit www.cernam.com.
