Echoworx Partners With Clearswift To Enhance Encryption Capabilities

As an Echoworx partner, Clearswift will be adding portal-based encryption service to its existing policy-based encryption solutions

TORONTO, Sept. 1, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Echoworx, a leading provider of credential management and managed encryption services for complete email and data protection, announces a new partnership with Clearswift, a UK-based global provider of gateway email, data and web security solutions. As an Echoworx partner, Clearswift will be adding portal-based encryption service to its existing policy-based encryption solutions.

"The worldwide demand for policy-based encryption is growing exponentially. In fact in North America and Northern European markets, it's no longer a luxury - it's a necessity," says Michael Ginsberg, CEO of Echoworx. "With Echoworx, Clearswift can add valuable portal functionality to their existing policy-based encryption solution."

"Good encryption practices are essential for enterprises as more and more applications are being managed through the cloud and/or on mobile devices," confirms Michael Ginsberg, CEO of Echoworx. "Not having this capability could potentially exclude providers from the bidding process. We believe our portal solution is a perfect complement to Clearswift's offerings and will play a role in supporting their continued growth, and ensuring that all their customers' mobile and data security needs are met."

The Echoworx solution is a secure web-based portal that enables organizations to work together and share confidential information within a secure environment. With this solution organizations have the power to enforce the sharing of confidential data in a highly secure environment. All messages in the portal are digitally signed and all data remains encrypted while stored in the portal.

This fully-hosted solution adheres to the most stringent security standards, is completely auditable, allows for large file sizes, and does not require any extra investment in hardware, software or IT resources.

Compliance Reports

report How To Boost Security Via FFIEC Compliance
With just a smartphone, users can conduct nearly all their banking business at any time of the day or night.

In this report, we examine the latest guidelines and provide advice on how you can extend the work done to comply with FFIEC guidelines to strengthen your organization's overall security posture and keep customers and their data safe.

report FISMA Lifts All Compliance Boats
FISMA may not be on your radar now, but it likely will be at some point. Geared specifically toward the federal government and its affiliate agencies and third parties, FISMA is a very specific set of requirements aimed at establishing and maintaining at least a baseline level of computer and network security. FISMA requires unique categorization and classification of information assets, not to mention a boatload of documentation to prove compliance. But once your organization achieves FISMA compliance, it will likely be compliant with just about every security mandate out there.
