Zafesoft - Breakthrough Content Centric Security

    SAN JOSE, CA, July 15, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Zafesoft Inc., unveiled the general availability of its Office Document solution.

The "security as a service" secures the information from malicious or accidental loss.
It provides control for the owner on who accesses; and what they do - view, edit, print or other use. Additionally it provides the powerful ability to UNSHARE that content; this disables previously enabled users (such as ex-employees) from any further access of zafed content, in online or offline use.

Users can secure sensitive information in Office files, DOC, XLS, PDF, TEXT etc.

The solution has evoked great interest for various military and intelligence agencies, banks, hospitals, online collaboration, social networking and the e-publishing industry. It significantly improves the level of persistent security for information. Its uses include:

1. Protection of sensitive patient information. This can be Zafed, by a hospital or the healthcare facility liable for the security of the patient information it collects, and makes available to its doctors and health partners. The authorized users can see, edit, copy, and use the patient information as needed, however when the need for sharing is over, or after 7 years (a records management requirement) the distributed information may be auto-deleted. Very importantly it provides a technology based solution for HIPAA security compliance and audit trail.

2. Bank information (personal financial and credit card information) can be zafed. Then users or data entry operators across the world may safely use or process the information as needed. The audit trail records all users that access this information, including its derivatives. It provides SOX and SEC compliance in banking and financially regulated industries. The information and its derivatives remain zafed, accessible only to authorized users, and ultimate control resides with the original owner of that content.

3. Social Networking site users can publish documents with pictures and text, and control who can see. They can even make it public (everyone can see), and (for example) when they graduate from college, and need a more professional web presence, can UNSHARE that information from all users, so the original information and all derivatives will no longer be accessible to anyone.

This security is unique in its thoroughness, and ease of use. It allows users to work with the sensitive information in the natural way, with copying, pasting, emailing saving to CD, USB or network drives, and sharing with external users and partners. The solution provides two distinct values:

1. Security.
- The security applies to all original information and to all derived information, such as after copy, save-as, or export etc.
2. Control.
- The owner maintains control on who can work with their information.
- Current employees and partners may be approved; ex-employees and terminated partnerships, business deals, etc. may not be and can be removed from the authorized list. Once removed, these users can no longer access any information belonging to the company.
- Information can be UNSHARED from any user anytime.

"It is rare that a small company can come up with a complete solution to such a difficult problem. This new brand of products will change the way businesses and governments think about securing documents" comments Dr. Taher Elgamal, the inventor of SSL, DSS, as well as the Elgamal cryptography algorithm. The former Chief Scientist at Netscape continued "The ease of use offered by the Zafesoft product is unparalleled in the industry and will set the agenda for this space".

"The general release provides extended PDF support for both the reader and the Acrobat products. Users can create PDF files from their Zafed documents, the resulting PDF is also Zafed" said Sandeep Tiwari, CEO of Zafesoft.
