Info Security Products Guide Names Safend Winner of the 2008 Best Deployment Scenario Awards
Safend, a leading provider of endpoint Data Leakage Prevention (DLP) solutions, announced today that Info Security Products Guide, a Silicon Valley Communications publication and the world’s leading publication on security-related products and technologies, has named Safend a winner of the 2008 Best Deployment Scenario Award in the endpoint security category.
This prestigious award recognizes security vendors with advanced, ground-breaking security solutions that are helping set the bar higher for others in all areas of information security. Safend was selected based on real-world solution deployments that are making the most positive impact on security in today's highly sophisticated and blended attacks environment.
Safend was honored for its ability to help a large healthcare group based in New York implement the Safend Protector solution to ensure the security and integrity of confidential data and meet HIPAA compliance. With Safend, the organization was able to maintain secure files without the threat of a data breach and track USB storage devices offline, providing the organization the added visibility to all files that were copied to or from a removable storage device when it was not connected to the network.
"Successful technology deployments are the most powerful proof of a vendor's capabilities to solve their customers' security needs," says Rake Narang, editor-in-chief, Info Security Products Guide. "Safend's successful deployment at a large healthcare organization proves that its Safend Protector technology is setting the standard in endpoint data leakage prevention."
"Info Security Products Guide's recognition of Safend further validates our commitment to offer our customers the best-in-class solutions to meet all of their endpoint security needs," said Gil Sever, CEO at Safend. "Our customers demand a range of solutions from device access control to encryption to keylogger protection, to ensure that their organizations are secure from the inside out. Safend is pleased to be recognized for its achievements in meeting our customers' unique requirements."
Safend Protector guards confidential data stored on enterprise PCs and laptops against loss, tampering and theft by both monitoring the transfer of sensitive data as well as controlling access to removable storage devices and wireless communication ports, including USB, FireWire, WiFi, Bluetooth, Infrared (IrDA) and CD/DVDs. Safend also protects against USB/PS2 keyloggers and offers additional layers of protection with removable/external storage and CD/DVD disk encryption and offline tracking of USB storage devices.
