| Entrust Entelligence Content Control Server 8.0 is Released Every day, hundreds of billions of electronic messages are exchanged worldwide. If just one of those messages contains sensitive or inappropriate information, and proper security controls are not in place, that message could wreak havoc on a company's reputation, customer confidence and could also have regulatory and legal repercussions. That is why Entrust, Inc. has introduced Entrust Entelligence Content Control Server 8.0. This next evolution of Entrust's content control platform expands beyond email to help empower organizations to monitor, protect and report on content as it flows across a broad range of communication protocols, including instant messaging (IM), file transfer protocol (FTP), file uploads and web mail applications such as MSN Hotmail, GMail, Yahoo! and others. Entrust Entelligence Content Control Server 8.0 monitors and analyzes communication flowing through a network. Then it offers the ability to set automatic policies that can result in taking specific actions like encrypting, restricting, archiving or reporting - all from the same vendor. This flexibility can not only help provide security for sensitive customer data, but can also help in monitoring for inappropriate communication between employees including harassment and leakage of sensitive intellectual property. This functionality can be a valuable tool to help address both regulatory compliance and corporate governance requirements. Eighty-three percent of reported data loss is accidental, the Osterman survey cited. Because of the proliferation of information exchange with outsource partners, the increase in the number of communication tools used by employees, and the increasing competitive and industry pressure to protect intellectual property, organizations have shifted focus from managing outside security risks to inside ones. Entrust Entelligence Content Control Server 8.0 has been designed to offer a flexible range of deployment options for various types of customers. Organizations will be able to simply monitor or audit content as it flows through their networks to gain an understanding of content usage patterns while identifying areas for potential remediation. They will also be able to deploy more advanced prevention and protection tools that will help actively enforce corporate policy, for example quarantining, blocking or even automatically encrypting email messages as required. The new multi-protocol capabilities of the Entrust Entelligence Content Control Server 8.0 are scheduled to be commercially available in April, 2006. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Computing News :: home page |
