CipherPoint Software Partners with Planet Technologies to Enable Compliance and to Secure Sensitive SharePoint Content for Health Care Organizations
Companies Bring Innovative Transparent Encryption Technology, Security and Compliance Consulting to Microsoft SharePoint Health Care Customers
Austin, TX, December 06, 2011 --(PR.com)-- CipherPoint Software and Planet Technologies announced today a partnership that aims to address the compliance and security concerns that health care accounts have regarding sensitive information and electronically protected health care information (ePHI), specifically as it relates to Microsoft SharePoint.
CipherPoint’s flagship products are CipherPointSP Enterprise, a transparent content encryption software solution for SharePoint, and CipherPointKM, a central security console providing advanced key management and administration capabilities for multiple SharePoint servers running CipherPointSP Enterprise.
The CipherPoint solution is the first enterprise-class content security solution for SharePoint. CipherPoint Software’s approach delivers transparent encryption for sensitive and confidential content, with no client software required and no user interaction required. CipherPoint Software’s products enable compliance with multiple regulations (including PCI DSS, GLBA, HITECH, and state data privacy laws) requiring encryption of sensitive and confidential information. The products provide an effective solution to protect against the insider threat within any SharePoint environment while enforcing separation of duties and need-to-know among business users, information security personnel, and the various tiers of SharePoint administrators.
