Verdasys Releases Data Security and Loss Prevention Software Solution for Linux

(Wireless News Via Thomson Dialog NewsEdge)
Verdasys, a company providing enterprise-wide data security solutions,
announced the general availability of Digital Guardian for Linux
environments.

With support for Linux, Verdasys extends the capabilities of the
Digital Guardian Solution beyond Windows and Citrix environments to
meet the growing demand from Manufacturing, Hi-Tech, Entertainment and
Bio-Tech customers who are increasingly leveraging the Linux Platform
for some of their most critical operations.

In these highly competitive industries where anti-piracy and the
protection of intellectual property and trade secrets are so critical,
customers rely on Digital Guardian's unique context and content based
discovery, classification, monitoring and control technology to meet
their data security needs. Digital Guardian's policy based email and
file encryption, "community of trust" collaboration and application
logging capabilities offer a competitive advantage by identifying and
reducing the risk associated with sharing sensitive data across both
online and off line business processes extending to privileged users
including employees, partners, suppliers, and outsourced service
providers.

"We have been working with Verdasys over the past few years and are
thrilled by its commitment to meet its customers' requirements and
support complex company operations," said Ken Venner, CIO, Broadcom
Corp. "Digital Guardian's host based security technology uniquely
empowers organizations to monitor, control, audit and prevent data from
wrongful disclosure while automatically enforcing data security
policies and procedures. The release of a Linux solution enables us to
deploy this protection technology into mission critical IP areas such
as our hardware and software source code development environments," he
added.

Working with long standing customer Broadcom, a provider of
semiconductors for wired and wireless communications, Verdasys was able
to design and develop the Linux offering to meet Broadcom's demanding
real-world requirements and ensure the future success of Linux
deployments to all customers.

"Verdasys has had great success in the Semiconductor industry with the
Digital Guardian solution," said Nicholas Stamos, President, Verdasys.
"Industry leader Broadcom was an early Verdasys customer and formed a
strategic partnership with us to develop a Linux agent. With the
release of the Linux agent for Digital Guardian, Broadcom now has a
complete solution for monitoring and protecting intellectual property
throughout their enterprise. We look forward to working with our other
hi-tech, manufacturing, bio-tech and entertainment customers to enable
the complete protection of their IP," he added.
