A Global Financial Credit Reporting Company Picks SafeMedia's P2P Active Denial Appliance to Secure Its Network Against Inadvertent File Sharing
BOCA RATON, Fla., April 9, 2008 /PRNewswire/ -- SafeMedia's Active Denial
P2P network security appliance has been selected by CRChex, Colombia Falls,
Montana, to provide P2P network security for its credit checking application.
SafeMedia installed "Clouseau," a network security management appliance
designed to monitor, detect, intercept, capture and actively deny all
inadvertent file sharing from P2P networks, encrypted or non-encrypted,
without invading the users' privacy.
Safwat Fahmy, CEO of SafeMedia, emphasized that protecting credit
reporting companies from the risks of inadvertent sharing of individual credit
data while stopping P2P exposure to Identity Theft is a priority for CRChex.
"Being selected by CRChex to protect its customers, employees and company
confidential data further validates our commitment in providing the only
Active Denial of P2P Network security solutions for the financial services
industry," Fahmy said.
Before choosing SafeMedia's solution, CRChex relied on a firewall to
protect against P2P inadvertent file sharing. Due to the massive use of
encrypted P2P, CRChex realized that firewalls could not stop encrypted P2P.
"We were impressed with the way SafeMedia could help us block P2P traffic that
could not be blocked by firewalls or any other currently available solutions
that we evaluated," said Ed Holt, CIO of CRChex.
"We have policies prohibiting our employees from using P2P, but there was
no practical way of enforcing them. Now with SafeMedia's technology, our
network administrators get real-time visibility into P2P Internet traffic,
allowing them to capture and block infringing P2P clients and effectively
manage our company's policies," said Holt.
The scalability, flexibility, and the advanced architecture and
technologies embedded in Clouseau provide for customer investment protection
in current and future network infrastructure and for the acceleration of
system deployment to provide quickest time-to-value for the users.
