AIRZIP
FUNDED TO SOLVE FILE PROTECTION
NEEDS OF FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS
With AirZip, a CBA Endorsed Partner,
avoid the cost, embarrassment, and
damage to your reputation from loss
of sensitive information.
CUPERTINO,
CA—November 15, 2004—AirZip®, Inc.,
a leading provider of user-friendly
file encryption software, today
announced funding for its expanded
marketing team and product
capabilities to best serve financial
and insurance institutions. Nordam,
Inc., Sofinnova Ventures Inc., and
the Band of Angels Fund, have
recently funded AirZip to
significantly increase capabilities
to serve financial and insurance
institutions.
AirZip is the Endorsed Partner of
the California Bankers Association,
selected as best able to meet member
bank needs for persistent file
content security. “Persistent
security is a necessity for banks to
efficiently prevent information loss
and cost effectively comply with
privacy laws and regulations,” said
Ellen Kaufman, Senior VP of CBA. “We
have selected AirZip FileSECURE
because it can help our members
rapidly improve compliance without
major IT system changes.” Persistent
security is a key component in
compliance efforts with numerous
privacy and financial regulations
such as HIPAA, the Gramm Leach
Bliley Act, Sarbanes Oxley, and
California SB 1386.
Banks have experienced very high costs and PR damage
due to losses of customer data
resulting from stolen computers and
other memory devices. FileSECURE’s
easy to use file encryption solves
the nightmare of losing your
company’s most important assets;
your confidential information.
Organizations need an easy and
cost-effective way to enforce
information security policies,
ensuring that only people with the
right to access certain information
gain access. Strong enforcement
reduces costs by ensuring compliance
with privacy and other regulations,
providing tracking data in response
to an audit, and preventing leaks of
intellectual property or sensitive
information.
“FileSECURE controls and tracks
access to documents both inside and
outside of corporate networks,” said
Lee Bauman, president of AirZip.
“FileSECURE, connected to office
copiers and scanners, ensures
automatic security, sending, and
tracking of scanned document image
files. Banks can speed delivery,
reduce costs, increase security, and
improve tracking of use by using
FileSECURE instead of overnight
couriers or FAX.”
FileSECURE is the easiest-to-use
enterprise file encryption and
access control and tracking solution
for banks because of capabilities
such as:
-
protection of all file formats,
-
tracking of
all file access and user activities
to generate a complete history of
events,
-
easy user and
group management,
-
automatic
securing of scanned document image
files directly from modern office
copiers,
-
automatically
and transparently securing of files
when they are stored in a folder.
