Press ReleaseIndustry Experts Say Information Management Mistakes Wreak Havoc in the Public SectorReymmannGroup, Inc. publishes “Forward-looking Thought Leadership” report on a persistent approach for protecting information regardless of where it resides, where it is sent, or how it is used. EDGEWATER, Md. - August 27, 2008 The security paradigm has shifted again. Traditional perimeter and network based security practices are no longer adequate. In a complimentary report published today, “Hidden Truth: How Information Management Mistakes Wreak Havoc in the Public Sector,” ReymannGroup, Inc. details how the ubiquitous nature of information creation, storage, and sharing is driving each government agency to seek better ways to control, track and report what is happening to its information at all times. The paper is available for download at: www.liquidmachines.com/ReymannGroup-HiddenTruth.
“With today’s ’inverted security model,’ users share sensitive data with other users both inside and outside of the network and throughout the virtual environment,” stated Paul R. Reymann, CEO of ReymannGroup, Inc. “Agencies are looking for solutions that protect information regardless of where it resides, where it is sent, or how it is used. We found that Enterprise Rights Management enables agencies to implement persistent security that successfully protects the actual data or document throughout its existence – including while in use. This is in contrast to traditional approaches that focus solely on data at rest or data in transit.”
The ReymannGroup report was written in collaboration with Liquid Machines and shares practical examples of how public sector agencies are adopting Enterprise Rights Management technology to establish a successful information-centric approach to security. A complimentary e-seminar that explores the trends, risks, and best practice strategies is also available at: www.liquidmachines.com/ReymannGroup-Webcast.
“We were honored to collaborate with ReymannGroup on this report. The combination of increasing information protection regulations and the need to collaborate has created an urgent need among agencies for better security that is less invasive,” says Keith Johnson, Vice President of Public Sector, Liquid Machines. “Liquid Machines is well-positioned to help our clients balance security with productivity with an information-centric approach that secures the data itself, not just the device.”
