Palisade Systems has released PacketSure 4.0

We have reprinted the blurb for PacketSure.

Palisade claims the system protects the network regardless of the network protocols used. PacketSure helps organizations ensure compliance with the increasing number of legislative and industry-specific regulations such as HIPAA, Gramm-Leach-Bliley, and Sarbanes-Oxley, said Kurt Shedenhelm, president and CEO of Palisade Systems. "And perhaps just as importantly, from a reputation management perspective, PacketSure helps companies prevent breaches that would otherwise necessitate embarrassing public disclosures as mandated by California's SB 1386 and other various state and national legislative disclosure initiatives."

In an industry first, PacketSure identifies, reports, and blocks confidential information leaks across over 130 network communication protocols. Common network applications, such as e-mail, instant messenger, chat, VOIP and FTP, all use different protocols to transfer information over the network. Email, for example, utilizes HTTP for web-based email and SMTP, IMAP, POP and MIME for software-based email. Comprehensive, multi-protocol capability is critical to the effectiveness of a content security appliance, because information can leak out of a network using a variety of common and not-so-common communication protocols. The new release also monitors and eliminates the use of encrypted third-party e-mail applications, which may be used by employees to secretly send files.
