WORKSHARE PUBLISHES GLOBAL THREAT SECURITY REPORT

Report Underscores Growing Information Leak Threats and Acts as Call to Action

San Francisco, Calif. - May 15, 2007 Workshare, the leading provider of secure content compliance solutions, today announced it has released a new report entitled the Workshare Global Threat Security Report, January – April 2007. The report highlights numerous key examples of large organizations in US, EU and APAC that have experienced serious information losses in four key areas: Privacy; Intellectual Property; the Mobile Workforce; and Corporate Compliance. The report can be found at www.workshare.com/go/research/07aprilthreats.pdf

“Organizations have been so focused on security attacks coming in from the outside that they haven’t protected important information from walking out their door,” said Workshare chief marketing officer Ken Rutsky. “Along with the loss of information is the loss of customer trust and competitive advantage, which can quickly turn into a major loss of business. To stay competitive and keep their information secure, organizations must embrace and adopt leak prevention solutions now.”

The Workshare Global Security Threat Report is targeted at corporate executives and IT managers to show how information leak security threats have become a growing global issue. Citing examples from TJX, JP Morgan Chase, Ferrari, Halifax and more, the report demonstrates how prevalent security threats are, provides examples of security breaches and shows how much internal and external damage to an organization can be caused by security leaks. It highlights actions by governments trying to keep up with laws to deal with information security and privacy disclosures. In addition, the Workshare Global Security Threat Report covers the threat activity, key events and news and developments to watch
