SecureDoc for Financial Services

With the increasingly mobile nature of financial services professionals, how can a bank or insurance company ensure security over PCI and PII on laptops and portable storage devices across a wide geographic area?

What defense does a bank have against intentional or inadvertent copying of customer data to a USB thumb drive, iPod or camera?

What happens when machines or hard drives containing sensitive data must be transported from one secure location to another? How can compliance be maintained?

If money is the lifeblood of the financial services industry, customer data is the vessels that transport it. Understanding customers is the key to greater profitability and success – but in financial services organizations must protect this data. The payment card industry (PCI) requirements are a driving force in the industry, but the real requirements go beyond that – many other kinds of personal identifiable information (PII) must also be protected. The modern financial services enterprise must deal with these security and governance requirements from Sarbanes-Oxley to Gramm-Leach-Bliley and more. This compliance requirement is in an increasingly globalized context, including acquired companies, outsourced/offshored business functions and (at least in some cases) increasing government oversight.

That’s where SecureDoc comes in.

SecureDoc enables banks, insurance companies and other financial institutions to reliably and auditably protect PII and other sensitive data across an enterprise that can span multiple geographies, user types and organizational structures. With the ability to synchronize users, encryption keys, key files, and group files with Active Directory means that authorized users across the enterprise can access and share data (with variable access levels) with NO PASSWORDS REQUIRED, while keeping the sensitive data fully secure.
