Exostar Picks Dedigate for Dedicated Web Hosting

After an intensive selection, the leading provider of integrated supply-chain solutions to the aerospace and defense industry, Exostar (www.exostar.com), chose Dedigate to host its European environment for its online collaboration solution ForumPass.

This new contract acknowledges the emerging trend for non-European companies to use European based hosting facilities to conduct online business in Europe.

According to Dedigate's CEO, Herman Oggel, "This is the second USA based market place that chose Dedigate as their hosting partner. Exostar's security requirements were very strict and we are proud to have met their high demands. Dedigate prides itself in offering secure high-end hosting solutions and our experience in this field was the primary reason Exostar awarded us contract."

In early June, Exostar won the ComputerWorld Honors 21st Century Achievement Award for most innovative technology. The award cites the revolutionary security architecture of Exostar's ForumPass solution.
Exostar's VP International, Ludo Van Vooren, says the application not only needs to be secured at top level, but also has to be hosted in Europe. "

ForumPass offers enhanced security and usability that enables project teams to collaborate more securely and effectively over the internet. In our intensive process of selecting a hosting partner based in Europe, Dedigate met all our requirements and exceeded the capabilities for many of the other companies we reviewed."

Exostar provides a single point of connection for electronic security, commerce and collaboration for global manufacturers and aerospace and defense organizations.
