Accellion Honored as a Finalist in Info Security Products Guide's 2013 Global Excellence Awards [Manufacturing Close - Up](Manufacturing Close - Up Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) Accellion, Inc., a company focusing on providing mobile file sharing solutions, announced that Info Security Products Guide, an information security research and advisory guide, has named Accellion Mobile File Sharing Solution a finalist for the 2013 Global Excellence Awards in the Compliance category. According to a release, the Excellence Awards recognize security and IT vendors with products and solutions that are helping set the standard for security innovation. Accellion Mobile File Sharing Solution with kitepoint provides secure, anytime, anywhere access to the most up-to-date content for enterprise users, including access to files stored in SharePoint and other Enterprise Content Management (ECM) systems - without the need for a VPN. With Accellion, users can securely view and collaborate on existing files from tablets, smartphones or desktops, without having to duplicate files into a new content system or expose sensitive documents to a public cloud service. "Enterprises increasingly recognize the need to protect corporate data and ensure compliance with industry and federal regulations while enabling their workforces to stay productive on-the-go. Consumer-grade file sharing solutions simply do not make the grade," stated Colman Murphy, director of product marketing, enterprise solutions. "Being a Global Excellence Awards finalist in the Compliance category further validates our commitment to delivering solutions that protect confidential, sensitive information as well as demonstrate compliance." Accellion delivers security features such as encryption of both data at rest and data in transit, with content expiration supported and LDAP/Active Directory for user authentication, all in a private cloud deployment to keep highly sensitive data secured. The SharePoint content still resides behind the corporate firewall, also enhancing security. In addition, the solution provides audit and reporting for IT administrators in order to deliver the control that they need to maintain compliance and ensure data security. Info Security Products Guide's 2013 Excellence Awards honor organizations and individuals who develop services and solutions that set the bar for security technology. Winners will be announced at the 9th Annual Info Security 2013 Global Excellence Awards industry banquet on February 27, 2013 in San Francisco, CA.
