Workshare Protect Enterprise Debuts Policy Management for Microsoft Windows Rights Management Services at RSA Conference Unified Network and End-point Outbound Security Solution Prevents Dangerous and Confidential Content Leaks Right within Existing Microsoft Applications San Jose, Calif. - RSA Conference - February 15, 2006 - Workshare, a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner, and the leading provider of document integrity solutions, today showcased (in Booth #2229 and at the Microsoft Partner Pavilion) its policy management solution for Microsoft Windows Rights Management Services (RMS) for Windows Server 2003, Protect Enterprise Suite-a powerful set of outbound security software that prevents widespread privacy breaches, intellectual property leakage and inadvertent financial disclosure that often result from dirty and dangerous content. Unveiled this month, the Workshare Protect Enterprise solution unifies fragmented approaches to outbound content compliance, uniquely converting risky content to safe information, containing sensitive information within established perimeters, and now controlling confidential documents after they leave by providing policy-based application of RMS rights-protection. Workshare's award-winning Protect client, a key component of the Enterprise Suite that is already installed at more than 1,000 organizations worldwide, educates users as it enforces security policies. Working both on- and off-line, the Protect client removes risky content, converts information to appropriate formats, and applies RMS rights-protection-all within the familiar Windows and Office application environments. In addition, Workshare announced that Protect will now use Microsoft Smart Tags to deliver instant, real-time alerts to users as they work, signaling and repairing threats like Social Security numbers and other confidential information. "Protect Enterprise with its 'Hygiene' technology now can make optimal use of the information protection technology in RMS to control information within or outside of the organization," said Ken Rutsky, EVP of Marketing for Workshare. "By integrating the Protect Enterprise Suite's policy management with the RMS framework, Workshare offers users of Microsoft Office the right solution for controlling content." For more detail on the Workshare Protect Enterprise Suite, please click here "Customers have told us that centralized policy automation and enforcement driven by content inspection solutions are important information protection needs today, particularly from a compliance perspective," said John Chirapurath, director of Identity and Access Product Management at Microsoft Corp. "We are excited that Workshare's Protect Enterprise solution integrates with the RMS platform to help meet this critical customer need, by centrally providing more granular control of documents as they are sent outside of the organization." RMS is information protection technology that works with RMS-enabled applications to help safeguard digital information from unauthorized use-both online and offline, inside and outside of the firewall. Information workers can define exactly how the recipient can use the information, such as who can open, modify, print, forward and/or take other actions with the information.
