PineApp announces two exciting new product launches: Archive-SeCure and PineApp Mail Encryption Solution

Published 26th November 2008

PineApp has today announced two exciting additions to its product portfolio: Archive-SeCure and PineApp Mail Encryption Solution. These products will help businesses address some of the most pressing security issues they face today.

PineApp's cutting-edge email archiving solution, Archive-SeCure, provides a cost-effective solution aimed at small to medium sized organisations, that encrypts and stores all email communications based on pre-defined rules for retention and recovery policy.

Archive-SeCure stores an infinite number of emails and supports multiple storage systems including NAS and SAN along with removable drives.
By using advanced compression and storing a single copy of an attachment shared across potentially thousands of emails, storage costs can be reduced by up to 90%. A powerful search engine allows auditors and employees to search, view and print archived messages at the click of a button. PineApp also provides support for Microsoft’s envelope journaling and email restoration.

“The value of corporate knowledge held in email communications combined with legislation such as the Sarbanes Oxley Act (SOX), PCI DSS and the Freedom of Information Act, are forcing companies to take email archiving seriously,” explains Hezi Erez, PineApp CEO. “Archive-SeCure provides a cost effective and scalable solution but also delivers improvements in system performance and employee productivity by reducing the time spent managing email systems.”Archive-SeCure is a stand-alone appliance with no additional per-user license costs or hidden database administration charges. Archive-SeCure works with any email system or environment and integrates with PineApp’s Mail-SeCure email security and management solution. Archive SeCure offers great value at a great price and is available through PineApp’s authorised channel partners.

PineApp Mail Encryption Solution provides centralized management for email security that requires no training for users, who simply send and receive emails as normal. PineApp Mail Encryption Solution is integrated with PineApp’s award-winning Mail-SeCure appliance that also provides powerful perimeter security and comprehensive anti-spam, anti-virus, content filtering and email management tools.

As encryption is designated to protect sensitive content only, not all emails need to be protected. System administrators who use PineApp Mail Encryption Solution effortlessly define a set of rules that determine what gets encrypted, for example all email coming into or leaving the legal department, outgoing emails to a specific recipient / domain, or all emails with Excel attachments. Once configured, the encryption process is automatic and encrypted emails are sent to named recipients who simply need to register as authorized PineApp Mail Encryption Solution users in order to open the encrypted message.

All message encryptions are performed in a central encryption and certificate management platform called PineApp Secure Email System (SES). The SES automatically handles the creation, issuing and management of encryption keys and digital certificates and provides full reporting and audit trails to meet compliance requirements such as HIPAA, GLBA and Sarbanes Oxley.

“Email is now the main means of business communication and the value of corporate knowledge and sensitive information in email is often overlooked when it comes to data protection,” says Hezi Erez, PineApp CEO. “PineApp Mail Encryption Solution now provides a simple, cost-effective and scalable way to secure data in transit and combined with Mail-SeCure, delivers a complete email security and management solution.”
