MCLEAN, VA--(MARKET WIRE)--Jan 2, 2008 -- InferX Corporation (OTC BB:IFRX.OB - News), a leading data analytics and security risk firm which provides the most advanced technology and screening process available to protect the U.S., announced today that the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office has approved the issuance of a patent for the company's Distributed Data Mining and Compression Method and System. It was filed on July 10, 2003 for essential components of InferX's flagship product, Distributed Data Analytics Platform (D2AP).

D2AP offers a new generation of technologies for a network-centric approach to pattern discovery from dispersed data. The key benefit of D2AP is that the entire enterprise data can be analyzed at its local points of origin, facilitating near real-time analytics to meet critical mission needs. In addition, by keeping the data where it resides, the approach addresses the ownership, privacy, and security concerns of the organization or enterprise.

"This technology will be able to provide the best protection available for this country," said Jesus Mena, InferX's Chief Strategy Officer. "With the threat of severe security breaches, this technology is pivotal in the prevention of terrorist acts and the general security of private information."
