Raytheon Oakley Systems to resell Kazeon Information Server to discover and
classify sensitive information
SALT LAKE CITY and MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., March 10, 2008 /PRNewswire/
-- Raytheon Oakley Systems, Inc., and Kazeon Systems, Inc., have partnered
to integrate Raytheon Oakley's data leakage prevention, user activity
monitoring, investigation and forensics capabilities with Kazeon's
eDiscovery platform to provide a single solution for insider threat
protection.
Raytheon Oakley Systems is a leader in insider threat protection, and
Kazeon Systems is a leading provider of intelligent eDiscovery solutions.
"Joining Raytheon and Kazeon solutions provides an unprecedented
electronic data discovery and insider threat protection solution that
covers data at rest or in motion across the network and endpoints," said
Derek Smith, president of Raytheon Oakley Systems. "Our customers are
increasingly demanding electronic data discovery as part of their security
portfolio. They know it's impossible to protect critical data if they don't
know what it is or where it is in their enterprise."
Raytheon Oakley Systems integrates with the Kazeon eDiscovery solutions
to provide proactive detection and prevention services across a company's
network. Kazeon automatically discovers data at rest and, if the
electronically stored information matches a risk profile, moves sensitive
data to a secure location for further monitoring. Raytheon Oakley
automatically fingerprints collected data to monitor its use on endpoints
and its movement across the enterprise network.
If uninformed users expose sensitive data, Raytheon Oakley detects the
policy violation, notifies the user of the policy and reports the
violation. When a malicious insider attempts to steal intellectual property
or customer data, Raytheon Oakley can prevent the activity, alert the
appropriate investigator, prioritize the incident by severity and capture
indisputable visual evidence of the crime.
The integrated solution will include the capability to:
-- Discover Information -The Kazeon Information Server automatically
discovers data at rest residing on: desktops, laptops, file servers
and e-mail servers across company networks and endpoints, creating an
enterprise index of both content and metadata.
-- Classify Data - The Kazeon Information Server automatically tags and
classifies the discovered data based on pre-defined business risk
policies using combinations of keywords, patterns and metadata.
-- Automatically Move Data to a Secure Location - The Kazeon Information
Server automatically moves or copies tagged data to a secure location
to comply with company risk policies and for integration with Raytheon
Oakley Systems.
-- Fingerprint Sensitive Data - Raytheon Oakley automatically fingerprints
collected data to be monitored across network and endpoint channels,
including file systems, communication protocols and removable devices.
-- Protect Sensitive Data - Raytheon Oakley provides extensive pre-defined
policy configurations for common business scenarios, such as protecting
customer information, intellectual property and sensitive data. This
allows administrators to detect policy violations, prompt users of
violations, block removable media or disable the computer.
-- Investigate and Provide Forensics Evidence - Raytheon Oakley goes
beyond data leak prevention by giving investigators and security
personnel visual forensic evidence of malicious and accidental insider
activities.
"We are thrilled that Raytheon Oakley chose Kazeon to supply its
customers with a key component of its insider threat solution," said
Sudhakar Muddu, president and CEO of Kazeon. "Electronic data discovery is
not driven solely by litigation. It is also driven by information security
and privacy, regulatory compliance, corporate investigations, M&A and more.
Kazeon's products enable customers to easily, cost effectively and
proactively implement solutions to a broad range of electronic data
discovery challenges."
"It's vital to find, classify and proactively monitor sensitive data,
to minimize insider threat risk," Smith said. "Raytheon Oakley is also
currently developing endpoint data discovery that extends our best-in-class
insider threat agent to complement Kazeon's electronic data discovery
capabilities on the network."

Raytheon Oakley Systems is reselling the Kazeon Information Server. For
