Latest approval bolsters Hummingbird's standing as the premier

passed rigorous testing requirements in the U.S., UK and Australia
TORONTO, ON, and LONDON, UK, Sept. 12 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ --
Hummingbird Ltd. (NASDAQ:HUMCNASDAQ:TSX:NASDAQ:HUM), a leading
global provider of integrated enterprise content management (ECM)
and network connectivity solutions today announced that the
Hummingbird Enterprise(TM) suite has been approved by the UK
Government's National Archives for meeting the requirements for its
electronic records management systems (ERMS) program. The premier
provider of government and compliance solutions worldwide,
Hummingbird Enterprise has also been awarded compliance with the
U.S. Department of Defense DoD 5015.2, including the rigorous
Chapter 4 security classification requirements, and has recently
achieved certification with the Australian Victorian Electronic
Records Strategy (VERS). The National Archives (TNA) is responsible
for preserving the records of central government and the courts of
law, and giving public access to open records and to the
appropriate government departments where the records are closed.
The UK government requires that all central government
organizations are able to store and retrieve their public records
electronically and ensure that the records that are retained and
managed electronically can be demonstrated to be reliable and
authentic. TNA's stringent approval requirements address
developments in information legislation and standards including ISO
15489, EU Model Requirements for ERM Systems (MoReq), the
e-government interoperability framework (incorporating the ERM
metadata standard), Freedom of Information Act 2000 and Data
Protection Act 1998. "Hummingbird provides government departments
around the world with a leading-edge enterprise content management
solution that is built on a secure, feature-rich,
standards-compliant records management foundation," said Barry
Litwin, President and Chief Executive Officer, Hummingbird Ltd.
"Achieving approval against the UK TNA's demanding functional
requirements is testament to our dedication to be the leading
global provider of government and compliance solutions." The
Hummingbird Enterprise Records Management solution works in tandem
with the entire Hummingbird Enterprise content management suite.
