Enterprise Information Protection (EIP) offerings provider Verdasys has introduced two new enterprise data loss prevention offerings to be offered as managed services. The two new offerings include: Verdasys Managed Service for Information Protection (MSIP) and Verdasys Information Protection as a Service (IpaaS).
MSIP offers a fully-managed EIP offering hosted, supported, and maintained by in-house Verdasys experts and IPaaS allows end users to deploy and manage their own enterprise data policies with no additional setup or infrastructure costs.
With its MSIP and IPaaS offerings, Verdasys is offering more options to help companies minimise the cost of data security by combining its proven experience deploying enterprise solutions with the ease and flexibility of a managed service.
The technology behind both MSIP and IPaaS is Digital Guardian, the flagship platform offering from Verdasys. Digital Guardian offers complete protection of intellectual property, trade secrets and privacy data in highly collaborative and regulated industries.
MSIP and IPaaS customers are provided Digital Guardian management servers hosted in secure and high-availability Verdasys facilities, and can either be administered by Verdasys (MSIP) or by the user’s security team (IPaaS).
Verdasys CEO Jim Ricotta said Verdasys’ research showed that 30% of its enterprise clients prefer a managed services option across many types of internal projects, mainly due to IT staffing limitations or lack of security expertise.
"We see a tremendous potential for the managed services model to help our clients implement advanced information protection which can cost-effectively manage the biggest risks to their critical data," said Ricotta.
