Bedford, Massachusetts - June 2008

RSA, The Security Division of EMC (NYSE: EMC), today unveiled new capabilities in the RSA® Data Security System’s encryption and key management suite which are designed to secure sensitive data in file systems. The RSA File Security Manager is a turnkey offering focused on transparent encryption and access control of sensitive data in files and folders on Windows® operating systems and Linux® servers.

“The RSA Data Security System helps organizations secure sensitive information by providing centralized policy management that is business risk driven,“ said Dennis Hoffman, Vice President and General Manager, Data Security Group and Chief Strategy Officer, RSA, The Security Division of EMC. ”RSA File Security Manager is a key element of the Data Security System since it provides the enforcement controls needed to control access to the sensitive data stored in unstructured formats. RSA File Security Manager can be deployed on its own or utilized with other RSA solutions that form part of the Data Security System, such as the Data Loss Protection Suite and RSA Key Manager®.”

“Organizations are getting serious about protecting data and information, especially the ever growing amount of unstructured content (e.g. emails, videos, audio and text data) that has become the majority of all data retained by an organization,“ said Charles Kolodgy, research director at IDC. ”To mitigate risks, reduce costs, and manage complexity associated with this data, primarily to meet regulatory compliance mandates, solutions are required that can confidently protect private consumer, employee and partner data generated in a heterogeneous application and platform infrastructure"
