The nightly news is filled with stories of major security breaches in which organizations have lost thousands of customer records. Public outrage over loss of identity information has led to calls for even more stringent legislation to be added to an already substantial body of regulation (including the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, HIPAA, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and California SB 1386 - a model for pending national legislation) impacting the management of enterprise data. These mandated requirements represent a real increase in fiscal and legal risk, and they are certain to seriously affect all moderate to large organizations.
Preventing Loss: Identification & Remediation
One out of every 500 email messages leaving a large enterprise contains confidential information, and nearly all high-cost security incidents occur because insiders have sent confidential data outside the company. The only practical solution is to identify all outgoing communication containing sensitive information and then route it to an encryption solution capable of safely delivering email to any destination.
PGP Corporation - the global customer standard for encryption and digital-signature solutions - has teamed with industry leaders that provide sophisticated content-filtering applications capable of identifying critical data before it leaves a company. Together, these highly integrated solutions provide for the identification and remediation of confidential communications and can form a major component in a corporate strategy to address the risks that attend these governmental regulations.
Vontu stops confidential and classified information from being sent via email and other Internet communications. Together, Vontu and PGP Corporation offer a secure-messaging solution that allows customers to define and enforce confidential information protection and encryption policies. For example, customer data and intellectual property sent over email can be automatically encrypted according to policy, with no user intervention. Customers benefit from reduced financial risk, protected brand reputation, and the ability to demonstrate compliance.
Together MailFrontier and PGP Corporation offer an email security solution that protects against spam, viruses, and fraud while also ensuring effortless compliance.
