- Email, data and web security leader adds portal encryption features to their policy-based services

Echoworx, a leading provider of credential management and managed encryption services for complete email and data protection, announces a new partnership with Clearswift, a UK-based global provider of gateway email, data and web security solutions. As an Echoworx partner, Clearswift will be adding portal-based encryption service to its existing policy-based encryption solutions.

“The worldwide demand for policy-based encryption is growing exponentially. In fact in North America and Northern European markets, it’s no longer a luxury - it’s a necessity,” says Michael Ginsberg, CEO of Echoworx. “With Echoworx, Clearswift can add valuable portal functionality to their existing policy-based encryption solution.”

“Good encryption practices are essential for enterprises as more and more applications are being managed through the cloud and/or on mobile devices,” confirms Michael Ginsberg, CEO of Echoworx. “Not having this capability could potentially exclude providers from the bidding process. We believe our portal solution is a perfect complement to Clearswift’s offerings and will play a role in supporting their continued growth, and ensuring that all their customers’ mobile and data security needs are met.”

The Echoworx solution is a secure web-based portal that enables organizations to work together and share confidential information within a secure environment. With this solution organizations have the power to enforce the sharing of confidential data in a highly secure environment. All messages in the portal are digitally signed and all data remains encrypted while stored in the portal.

This fully-hosted solution adheres to the most stringent security standards, is completely auditable, allows for large file sizes, and does not require any extra investment in hardware, software or IT resources.
