OpenText launches SecureiX

Johannesburg, 20 Mar 2013

OpenText Corporation, the pre-eminent provider of enterprise information management (ECM) software, today unveiled OpenText SecureiX, its newest cloud services offering designed to let organisations exchange messages and information in a trusted, integrated and collaborative cloud environment. OpenText SecureiX is the first of a new generation of information exchange solutions that aims to fulfil the vision of exchanging any information, in any format, on any device.

Today's high-risk environment demands an information exchange solution that protects valued content while enabling organisations to fully benefit from it. OpenText SecureiX establishes a secure, two-way communication stream unlike any other application on the market. It is as easy to use as e-mail, yet helps provide the security and audit trail that today's corporations need to satisfy compliance requirements. The product can help users securely exchange messages and large files of any type, inside or outside of their company's network, via the cloud. SecureiX's intuitive user interface requires little to no training and, as a cloud-based offering, reduces IT costs by moving complex information exchange infrastructure off premise.

"Inactive information is neither useful nor safe; the power of information comes from the ability to securely share it," commented OpenText CEO Mark J Barrenechea. "The requirement for secure file transfer and collaboration continues to grow and mismanaged e-mail poses serious security risks. SecureiX delivers upon our EIM strategy of offering the next evolution in enterprise communication and file delivery. As opposed to e-mail's transmission in clear text, data within SecureiX is traceable and encrypted at all times."

Key features:

* During file transfer and information exchanges, data is encrypted at all times both inside and outside the enterprise, thus providing superior protection of sensitive data
* Collaboration via threaded messages that include file uploads enable users to connect with a high degree of transparency and allows for more intuitive organisation of content
* Notifications are date- and time-stamped when messages are received and files are downloaded, allowing for easier tracking and more efficient workflow management
