(M2 PressWIRE Via Acquire Media NewsEdge)
RDATE:04092008
Amersham, Bucks -- Protegrity (www.protegrity.com), a global provider
of data security management solutions, today released Defiance Security
Software Suite 4.5 (www.protegrity.com/DefianceSecuritySuite), the
latest version of its award-winning data protection solution.
Building on its existing cross-platform support, Protegrity broadens
its customer-proven mainframe data protection capabilities with a new
Application Protector and command line File Protector for z/OS.
Protegrity's Defiance data protection system provides application,
database and file-level encryption for the mainframe by leveraging
built in cryptographic hardware. This eliminates any need to burden
network resources with moving data off the system for encryption and
decryption.
In addition, Protegrity has simplified the enterprise data security
management with new auto-configuration and cluster deployment options
for its award-winning Defiance Threat Management System (TMS) web
application firewall.
"The release of Defiance Security Suite 4.5 strengthens our commitment
to enterprise data security management with new web application
firewall management options and by expanding Protegrity's market-tested
data protection solution to support even more mainframe data types,"
said Gordon Rapkin, CEO of Protegrity. "Like all other sensitive
information, data on the mainframe is subject to security regulations
like the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard. Protegrity is
extending its customers' ability to achieve both real security and
compliance, by providing broad protection for the enormous amount of
data found on the mainframe."
The Defiance Suite is made up of the Enterprise Security Administrator,
the Defiance Threat Management System web application firewall and the
Defiance Data Protection System for encryption. A broad range of
Application Protectors, Database Protectors and File Protectors make up
the Defiance Data Protection System.
New and enhanced functionality in the Defiance Security Suite includes:
* Expanded platform support for the mainframe with a new Application
Protector and command line File Protector for z/OS
* Extended web application firewall management with application path
and security policy auto-configuration and cluster deployment
* Broadened Linux platform support with new File Protectors for RedHat
Enterprise Linux 5 and SuSE Linux ES 10
* Vastly increased performance for the Database Protector for Microsoft
SQL Server 2005 and 2008.
Designed to protect data, protect web applications and manage data
security, Defiance Security Suite is a true enterprise solution
combining central management of security policy, key management and
alerting and reporting with distributed protection of data as it flows
across disparate systems. Encryption, web application firewall and
enterprise security administration solutions enable organisations to
achieve security and compliance while balancing operational
requirements with the risk of data loss.
