PayneGroup and Biscom Deliver Improved Email Security
Collaboration yields ability to automatically scrub metadata for delivery via Biscom's Microsoft Outlook integration.
- (1888PressRelease) April 11, 2012 - Chelmsford, MA - As more and more law firm CIOs and IT professionals struggle to protect confidential information from unauthorized access, PayneGroup and Biscom, two of the legal industry's leading security solution providers, are delivering an increased level of protection for client documents and data.
The companies have seamlessly integrated PayneGroup's metadata cleaning and Biscom's secure document delivery technologies to interoperate in a Microsoft Outlook environment. With this integration, PayneGroup's Metadata Assistant will clean email attachments of harmful hidden metadata and Biscom Secure File Transfer will redirect the email as a secured, encrypted delivery.
"The protection of confidential client data demands that every precaution be taken with document delivery. Not only does the delivery need to be encrypted from unauthorized access and delivered to only designated individuals, it also needs to be clean of metadata prior to that delivery. PayneGroup's Metadata Assistant connects directly with Biscom's Outlook add-on to ensure maximum security with a minimal effect on work habits and productivity," said Charles Magliato, Legal Program Director for Biscom.
"Our collaboration with Biscom brings a new level of security to the Microsoft Outlook environment," says Donna Payne, CEO of PayneGroup. "The seamless integration of our security products significantly reduces the risk of data breaches without changing user behavior."
The integration of the PayneGroup Metadata Assistant and Biscom Secure File Transfer products will be demonstrated in an upcoming International Legal Technology Association (ILTA) product briefing on May 18, 2012 at noon ET. Register for the ILTA product briefing at http://bit.ly/HBaNs0.
