Secure Computing and Workshare Launch Workshare Network Protect for IronMail Integrated Appliance Delivers the Industry’s First Solution to Manage Outbound Content Leak Prevention from the End-point to the Secure Messaging Gateway Las Vegas, Nevada—October 3, 2006—Secure Computing Corporation (NASDAQ: SCUR) and Workshare today jointly announced the availability of Workshare Network Protect for IronMail®, a network-based outbound content security appliance that integrates seamlessly with and augments Secure Computing’s IronMail messaging security and content management products, and Workshare’s Protect Enterprise Suite. Under the agreement, Secure Computing and its channel partners will market and sell Network Protect for IronMail and all other components of the Protect Enterprise Suite including the Protect Client. The announcement comes at the commencement of the Secure Computing “Messaging Security 2006” Conference opening tomorrow in Las Vegas. The integrated solution protects sensitive information such as intellectual property and private customer, HR and financial information found in both visible and hidden content, and provides:
“This partnership with Workshare firmly establishes Secure Computing’s lead in comprehensive outbound data leak protection at the end-point and at the gateway,” said Jay Chaudhry, vice chairman and chief strategy officer for Secure Computing. “Customers now will have access to broad multi-layered protection, advanced filtering technologies, and a common policy and management framework in a single solution." According to a survey of 300 global IT security and compliance officers completed by Loudhouse Research, the top two overriding concerns for content leak risk are e-mail (67%) and removable storage (65%). Unlike network-only or agent-based solutions, Workshare Network Protect for IronMail and Workshare Protect Enterprise Suite are integrated, engaging the user in risk mitigation at the end-point and delivering proven protection, scalability and reliability at the messaging gateway. This solution provides just-in-time training as people work and drives down compliance costs at the same time. “As we see concerns about data leaks continuing to increase, we are thrilled to bring a one-stop content security solution to market with Secure Computing, the trusted leader in enterprise gateway security,” said Joe Fantuzzi, CEO of Workshare. “Workshare’s strengths lie in integrated outbound end-point and network content protection. Fifty-six percent of the Fortune 1000 and over 5,500 organizations globally rely on us daily. This alliance is a big win for our common and new customers, providing them with complete integration and protection.” “Inside-out content security is a growing concern and a threat for all organizations,” said Michael Osterman, founder and principal of Osterman Research. “Any solution must protect all egress points, from the desktop to the network. This partnership solution provides a comprehensive means to prevent data leaks and compliance violations through messaging and is very compelling for end-user customers.” “We see real demand for this joint solution today,” said Gary Fish, President and CEO of Fishnet Security. “Our customers are concerned about information leaks, and this is exactly the type of market-leading complete solution that we need to deliver. The partnership between Secure Computing and Workshare is already grabbing the attention of our clients.” Pricing and Availability About Secure Computing About Workshare |
