WTFCU Credit Union Protects Member Data with Code Green Networks
Comprehensive Anti-Data-Leakage System Automatically Locates, Monitors and Protects Information from Breaches and Misuse
SANTA CLARA, Calif., March 27, 2007 – Code Green Networks, a leading developer of solutions for protecting customer data and intellectual property, today announced that WTFCU, a federally-chartered credit union serving the greater Washington D.C. area, is using the Code Green Networks Content Inspection (CI) Appliance to protect sensitive financial data and credit union member information.
“The responsibility of protecting our members’ sensitive and private information from disclosure is an ever-present concern, and we needed a reliable solution that was straightforward and versatile,” said Stephen Jones, chief technology officer at WTFCU. “We selected the Code Green Networks appliance because of its comprehensive data protection capabilities, small footprint, and ease-of-use. It covers data transmitted via SMTP e-mail, FTP, HTTP and Web mail and it automatically ensures compliance with our strict internal policies and industry requirements.”
The CI Appliance is the first anti-data-leakage solution designed specifically for the SMB market. The single-box solution is affordable and easy to use. It enables IT, security and compliance professionals to easily monitor digital content flows to the Internet, discover data leaks, and enforce automated policies to log, alert, block, encrypt or re-route data.
Particularly beneficial in the financial services market, the Code Green Networks CI Appliance protects information such as social security, credit card and account numbers. Additionally, unlike other solutions on the market, Code Green Networks uses patented Deep Content Fingerprinting technology to also protect unstructured content in any language, for over 390 different file formats including Microsoft Office documents, CAD drawings, image files, rich media and other industry-specific application formats. The system continues to protect data even after it has been modified, or cut and pasted into another document.
“Credit unions of all sizes must cooperate with the National Credit Union Association guidelines for protecting member information against potential threats,” said Sreekanth Ravi, chairman and chief executive officer at Code Green Networks. “As credit unions such as WTFCU look for solutions to best address these issues, many have discovered that the Code Green Networks solution provides the most complete protection, along with the incident management and reporting tools required to demonstrate compliance.”
The Content Inspection Appliance is available now in tiered license options to match an organization’s size. For more information, please visit: www.codegreennetworks.com.
