IntApp Wall Builder's Massive Momentum Mounts - Adopted by 100th Law Firm, It Now Manages Security for Over 1.5 Billion Documents Globally


PALO ALTO, Calif. --(Business Wire)--

IntApp, Inc., provider of the most-adopted ethical walls, information barriers and confidentiality management software for law firms, today announced that Wall Builder has been adopted by its 100th law firm customer and now manages security controls for over 1.5 billion documents globally.

Wall Builder is a web-based information security and confidentiality management software application that enables organizations to centrally control, monitor and report on user access permissions across multiple applications, including document management, accounting, portal, CRM, time entry and records management systems. It also automates notifications to individuals subject to specific policies and tracks acknowledgments for compliance purposes.

This year, several law firms have been recognized for their success based on their adoption of IntApp Wall Builder. Most recently, Patricia Fitzpatrick, Director of Practice Management at Katten Muchin Rosenman LLP, a full-service law firm with over 600 lawyers, was honored by the International Legal Technology Association (ILTA.) as part of its 2011 Distinguished Peer Awards Program. She is one of three finalists in the "Risk and Records Management Champion" category. The winner will be announced August 25, 2011 at ILTA's annual conference.

"We're pleased to count ourselves as a successful IntApp Wall Builder client and honored to be selected as a finalist for an ILTA Distinguished Peer Award based on our information risk management efforts," said Patricia Fitzpatrick, Director of Practice Management, Katten Muchin Rosenman LLP. "IntApp has definitely distinguished itself in our eyes, particularly with its service team's commitment to addressing our rigorous product implementation and information security requirements."

p> Wall Builder is the most-adopted ethical walls and confidentiality management software by law firms with 150 or more lawyers. According to an independent survey by the International Legal Technology Association (ILTA) of its membership, 74% of large law firms using commercial software to enforce ethical screens to secure access to confidential information use IntApp Wall Builder.

Law firms must closely manage and track internal access to client information for many reasons. These include waiver-driven ethical screens, client outside counsel guidelines, and compliance with regulations such as the HITECH Act, ITAR and several data privacy laws.

Wall Builder replaces distributed, ad hoc approaches to information security with a centralized system that provides organizations with unprecedented capability and control over user access to specific applications, documents and other information. It's the only product for law firms that delivers real-time enforcement while updating access rights in response to attorney behavior to ensure that policies are kept up to date automatically.


"Today law firms face an unprecedented set of confidentiality drivers, which is why so many choose to work with IntApp, as we focus on developing the most sophisticated technology available for addressing this specific challenge, and delivering it in a way that's easy to deploy and easy to use," said Pat Archbold, head of IntApp's Risk Practice Group. "We're excited to reach these important milestones and thankful to the legal community for standardizing on IntApp Wall Builder for confidentiality management."
