The Next-Generation Of Security and Information Sharing

Working in the face of heightened security and data sharing requirements, today’s government agencies are walking a constant tightrope. Managing massive volumes of documentation with mandates to maintain the privacy and security of each document, agency teams must hit their performance markers while making their records more open, more transparent and more accessible to other agencies and citizens – wherever they are located. As a result, securing content at the firewall or operating system levels aren’t enough, and they enslave agency teams with delivery constraints and cumbersome protocol steps. Securing your agency data at the file level can deliver the highest level of security all while freeing up your agency personnel to most effectively manage their document transport and workflow. The right information gets to the right person at the right time, with trusted security that is easy to implement.

Getting Started: Removing Administrator Rights & Setting up Policies to Elevate Privileges for Standard Users

Widespread endpoint administrator rights are a nightmare for IT and a common factor leading to endpoint security attacks. Users who are “Administrators” on their endpoints typically do not need absolute admin rights to accomplish their daily tasks – yet having free reign on software installation and endpoint based operations often leads to malware and data breaches that are very costly. Moving to a least privileges environment is an effective means to mitigate endpoint-based IT security risks.
