AUTHENTIDATE TECHNOLOGY USED TO CREATE ELECTRONIC HEALTH

INSURANCE CARD FOR ONE OF THE LARGEST PRIVATE HEALTH

INSURANCE COMPANIES IN GERMANY

- - -

New Agreement Will Create the Largest Smart Card Project in Europe

DÜSSELDORF, Germany and BERKELEY HEIGHTS, N.J. – January 11, 2007 – Authentidate Holding Corp. (Nasdaq: ADAT) announced today that its German subsidiary, Authentidate International AG, will develop a Card and Application Management System (CAMS) on a subcontract basis for both ISKV, a leading provider of healthcare information systems in Germany and Deutsche Angestellten-Krankenkasse (DAK), the second largest health insurance company in Germany.

CAMS will form the basis of an electronic health insurance card to be issued by DAK. By integrating the development into the largest Smart Card project in Europe, DAK has achieved significant progress for itself and its partner health insurance companies towards the introduction of an electronic health insurance card for Germany.

ISKV was commissioned to implement various basic components for the extensive project within the context of a European-wide invitation to bid. ISKV’s long-standing strategic partner, Authentidate, is supporting ISKV on a number of fronts, particularly in connection with software development and special services required for the Card and Application Management System.

With this project, DAK is a forerunner for the nationwide introduction of the electronic health insurance card in Germany. During the project, DAK expects to issue more than six million Smart Cards. The introduction of the electronic health insurance card makes it possible to optimize processes and reduce costs. At the same time, insured persons benefit from better information networking and are served faster, more purposefully and cost-effectively.

DAK will operate its own Certificate Authority for the electronic health insurance card which includes CAMS. In addition, the DAK Certificate Authority will provide the necessary certificates for the members’ health insurance cards and guarantee secure communication between patients, doctors, hospitals and health insurance companies.

CAMS will also enable DAK to consolidate data and to manage members’ health insurance cards. The management of the members’ health insurance cards is the central component for secure communication within the entire Germany-wide IT network infrastructure.

Authentidate provides several important scalability components for CAMS as well as the necessary security requirements for DAK. Apart from the establishment of the Certificate Authority for card-to-card authentication, this also includes the implementation of a complete public key infrastructure for X.509 certificates, which also comprises the use of Authentidate’s own Online Certificate Status Protocol responder and validation server.

With the aid of the Authentidate components, DAK can check whether the certificate of an insurance card is valid and whether the card was used lawfully during the visit to the doctor.

Authentidate also provides the security concepts for the entire Card and Application Management System and the Certificate Authority on the basis of the ISO Standard 27001.

According to Frank Krause, Managing Director of ISKV, “We are delighted that we, together with our long-standing partner Authentidate, can work on such an important and trendsetting project for DAK. The joint solution from ISKV and Authentidate provides optimal conditions for setting up the necessary infrastructure to introduce an electronic health insurance card quickly and in accordance with requirements.”
