"For the near term, our full focus is going to be on supporting our existing customers," said David B. Wright, chairman and CEO of Legato Systems, Inc. "The recent tragic events in our nation have prompted Legato, along with many others in our industry, to shift near-term focus from new business development to critical customer support issues, such as disaster recovery and restoration. I have authorized the deployment of resources from Canada and around the US to ensure that our focus on the customers and their needs is preeminent in everything we do. Along with our partners, we are working together to bring businesses back online as quickly and as fully as possible."

Since late on the afternoon of September 11, Legato's experts have been working with numerous customers whose data was jeopardized by the September 11 catastrophe, including companies whose headquarters in the World Trade Center were destroyed. While most of these companies had data centers outside the World Trade Center towers, data from those centers had to be restored and backed up. Legato's NetWorker information protection software was the preferred technology and in many cases, Legato experts have been onsite 24x7 assisting with this effort.
