| Document Security Systems, Inc. ("DSS") Announces Contracts for Cloud Disaster Recovery Services and Data Security
 
 DSS's Cloud Computing Division Awarded County Government Contract for Disaster
 Recovery
 
 ROCHESTER, N.Y., Nov. 30, 2011 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- DSS (Document Security
 Systems, Inc.) (nyse/amex:DSS) announced that its digital division has been
 awarded a disaster recovery services contract by a county government in New York.
 In addition, the digital division has received a contract from a law firm with
 offices in Buffalo and Rochester, New York for cloud computing services including
 the company's AuthentiGuard - DX data security software. No terms of the
 contracts were disclosed for competitive reasons.
 
 Disaster recovery and data loss prevention is an important business continuity
 process related to recovery or continuation of technology infrastructure critical
 to an organization after a disaster such as flood, earthquake, fire, hackers,
 computer viruses and physical theft of equipment.
 
 ABI Research forecasts that the global market for business continuity and
 disaster data recovery solutions will grow from $24.3 billion in 2009 to exceed
 $39 billion in 2015.
 
 DSS customizes each client's private cloud services to provide a highly
 dependable means of real-time, continuous data protection for servers, desktops,
 and laptops effortlessly and transparently, without any human intervention.
 
 Once the DSS disaster recovery service is deployed it protects invaluable data
 against virus, theft, environmental impact, hardware failure, accidental
 deletion, and more. In Addition, the AuthentiGuard DX security software can
 further protect data from being read by hackers and unauthorized persons.
 
 DSS's Chief Information Technology Officer, Tim Trueblood stated, "These
 contracts are just the beginning. As the increasing reliance on digital data
 expands, the need for protection of that data expands as well. DSS has multiple
 opportunities for our cloud computing offerings and information security software
 technologies."
 
 Trueblood continued, "The biggest benefits of DSS's disaster recovery solutions
 are they are more secure and the cost is less than half of in-house server
 environments. The client's entire hosted private cloud (including servers,
 software, network configuration and security) are replicated at a secure DSS
 offsite disaster recovery location. In addition, our solution has a much faster
 recovery time of a client's servers while requiring no back up actions on the
 part of the user. DSS's disaster recovery cloud solution can get a client
 re-established in just a few hours. Recovery time is therefore short and the
 client is re-established quickly."
