Secure Messaging Solution
E-mail has become the number one productivity tool for organizations, offering a low cost way to share information and accelerate decision-making.
With such a huge increase in the amount of e-mail now flowing into and out of an organization, there are new risks to be managed. Organizations must deal with the immediate concern of costly spam entering their network. They must also figure out how to enforce e-mail policy pertaining to offensive language and the protection of private or sensitive information. And they must deal with the industry specific issues of regulatory compliance.
Unauthorized access to private information or intellectual property can do significant damage to an organization's brand and competitive position. Failure to comply with regulations can lead to serious corporate embarrassment and financial penalties.
The need for e-mail risk management has become even more critical with recent government regulations. HIPAA and other government privacy regulations, for example, demand the protection of sensitive patient, client or citizen information. Laws governing the financial sector such as SEC, NASD and Gramm-Leach Bliley require regular audits of brokerage transactions and archival of e-mail messages. Sarbanes-Oxley mandates strong internal controls, which could include the ability to audit e-mail communications and restrict access to information. With so much information communicated and exchanged by e-mail today, the need to automatically recognize relevant e-mail communications and secure these automatically becomes an important element of regulatory compliance.
The Entrust Secure Messaging Solution offers real-time corporate and regulatory policy enforcement, including automatic protection of sensitive information at the boundary. It is an integrated suite of components that provide automatic content scanning of inbound and outbound e-mail messages, centralized policy enforcement, boundary-based e-mail encryption and more. A highly scalable, reliable and flexible solution, components can be installed standalone or as part of an integrated suite, making it easy for IT managers to add secure messaging capabilities into their existing e-mail environments.
Leveraging centrally defined policies and automatic enforcement or those policies - whether it be to reject spam, archive regulated information, bounce back e-mails with profane language or automatically encrypt e-mails containing intellectual property - the solution does not rely on users to enforce policy, and provides the most comprehensive set of capabilities for customers.
By implementing the solution, customers can mitigate the risk of penalties or brand damage associated with non-compliance, can help to optimize the performance of their e-mail systems, and lower the risks associated with communicating sensitive information.
