Integrated Technology Will Provide Maximum Protection Over Enterprises
Valuable Informational Assets
SAN JOSE, Calif., RSA Conference, Feb. 14 /PRNewswire/ -- Vericept
Corporation, the leading provider of comprehensive compliance and content
control solutions, today announced a strategic alliance with Voltage Security,
a global leader in enterprise privacy management for data privacy. The
alliance provides interoperability between Vericept and Voltage technologies,
combining Vericept's 360 degree visibility and control with Voltage's
Identity-Based Encryption (IBE) for real-time protection against compliance
violations, intellectual property theft and customer data loss.
"This alliance will deliver significant value to the marketplace in
delivering real-time protection against the insider threat by providing
encryption capabilities to content as it is leaving the organization without
disrupting the flow of business," said Brian Burke, Security Analyst, IDC.
"Having the ability to monitor and encrypt data leaving the organization in a
single solution will greatly benefit the market while also diminishing the
amount of risk associated with transferring confidential yet, business
critical data to sources outside the organization."
The Vericept and Voltage integrated solution will enable enterprises, for
the first time, to gain visibility into all insider risks and the ability to
ensure proprietary information leaving the organization is protected against
unauthorized access without any user intervention. Specifically, the alliance
will allow users to:
* Automatically encrypt email based on intelligent content and context
monitoring
* Use advanced policy-based encryption characterized by any combination
of user, department, keyword, metadata or customized categories
* Immediately protect information, out-of-the-box, utilizing more than 70
pre-defined risk categories
* Use unique client-less Identity-Based Encryption for easy deployment
and protection of information
* Protect sensitive information that must leave the enterprise to ensure
business carries on uninterrupted
"Our alliance with Voltage enables us to continue to deliver technology to
the marketplace which provides greater protection against the insider threat
than any other vendor in the market today," said Dave Parkinson, President and
CEO of Vericept Corporation. "Our customers are continually looking for the
best protection against critical data loss and it is through alliances such as
this as well as our continued commitment to product development that we are
able to continually deliver the protection necessary for conducting business
in today's perilous online landscape and securing valuable data."
The integrated solution will provide organizations with the following
significant protections and controls against the loss of vital data:
* Compliance Control -- Protects personal information leaks by encrypting
the content as it leaves the organization, enabling companies to guard
against compliance violations (HIPAA, Sarbanes-Oxley, GLBA, etc).
* Intellectual Property Protection -- Identifies sensitive information
leaving the organization and automatically encrypts, protecting against
unauthorized access. Intellectual property such as financials, product
plans, business plans, M&A activity and competitive information is kept
secure without user intervention.
* Customer Data Protection -- Captures disclosure of confidential
information (Social Security Numbers, credit card numbers, etc) and
takes decisive action to automatically encrypt the information
controlling access to it and assisting corporations in avoiding
damaging leaks.
"We are pleased to join forces with Vericept and believe our integrated
technology will greatly benefit the marketplace," said Sathvik Krishnamurthy,
President and CEO of Voltage Security. "The melding of Vericept's content
monitoring solutions and Voltage's Identity Based Encryption provides
organizations the ability to securely control messages leaving the
organization, ensuring they are delivered to appropriate individuals without
incident."
