GroupLogic Unveils mobilEcho, the Industry's First and Only Secure Enterprise Mobile File Management for iPad
Key Features Include Enterprise IT Management & Deployment Tools, Integration with Active Directory, Server and Client Security Controls, and Easy-to-Use On-Device File Browsing. New York, NY - TechCrunch Disrupt - GroupLogic, the industrys leading provider of software products that unlock the power of new enterprise platforms, today unveiled mobilEcho, the industrys first and only secure mobile file management (MFM) software product for iPad at TechCrunch Disrupt in New York City. mobilEcho enables enterprise IT organizations to provide secure and managed corporate file access for enterprise iPad users, based on existing security and access control policies. Since Apple introduced iPad, both enterprises and consumers have avidly embraced the newest mobile form factor-Apple recently said more than 80% of Fortune 100 companies are either currently using or testing iPads within their organizations. Whether directly acquired by the enterprise or brought
into the workplace by employees, enterprise IT organizations are struggling to offer secure access to enterprise file servers without a native, user-accessible file system on the device. mobilEcho addresses this problem by enabling enterprise IT organizations to rapidly install and provide simple, secure and managed mobile file management for corporate iPad users. mobilEcho features include the ability to: Access, Browse, Preview, Cache and Search Files on Corporate File Servers through a familiar and intuitive application interface, making it simple to use with virtually no end-user learning curve;Encrypt and securely transfer files to and on iPad, ensuring corporate assets are not compromised in transit;Remotely wipe mobilEcho configuration and resident fi les in the event of a lost, stolen or compromised device, protecting corporate files;Integrate easily with Active Directory, enforcing access control rights and file permissions;Configure and deploy both server
and client software in less than 10 minutes ensuring IT can get up and running quickly; and,Enforce unique policies based on application requirements, including turning off or on features based on the enterprises unique security requirements. This includes the end-users ability to email files, view files in third-party applications and store files on-device. Until todays release of mobilEcho, enterprise iPad users had no choice but to use inherently flawed and unsecure work-arounds to access files on iPad, including emailing files to themselves or uploading enterprise files into unsecured consumer-based cloud storage environments, violating corporate security, governance and compliance policies and increasing the risk for IT managers. mobilEcho is the only mobile file management system available that: Can be centrally managed by IT;Connects directly and securely to enterprise file servers;Enables IT to deploy and configure corporate-wide mobile file access in
minutes;Provides on-device browsing and storage of corporate files in a secure environment;Ensures mobile file access integrates with existing Active Directory permissions; and,Provides IT organizations with enterprise-ready software for integrating corporate- and employee-owned iPads into the enterprise ecosystem. 'End users are embracing consumer-oriented mobile devices like iPads in a big way,' says Jack Gold, President of J.Gold Associates, LLC. 'However, while users concentrate on usability features and increased mobility, corporate IT must ensure that enterprise data assets remain protected against loss, misuse and regulatory non-compliance. It is imperative that companies enable methods to protect and wipe data from these dev ices, or face potentially costly security breaches and regulatory actions.' mobilEcho is available today, and has been in beta testing at more than 35 enterprise customer sites for over four months. 'We rely on iPad to greatly enhance the
productivity of our staff and better meet the needs of our Scientists in a demanding research environment,' said Ben Hanes, Senior Systems Analyst, Childrens Hospital Oakland Research Institute. 'mobilEcho is the only software on the market that we have found that is made for enterprise IT organizations, and actually enables our IT organization to securely manage remote file access on iPad while having confidence that sensitive and proprietary files and assets cannot be compromised.' mobilEcho can be purchased via the GroupLogic web store. Beginning today, GroupLogic also offers a free trial of mobilEcho for interested IT organizations. GroupLogic offers two pricing options for enterprises, including subscription and perpetual licensing. 'GroupLogic has built a successful enterprise software business based on our extensive experience with Mac and other platforms, yet today marks an exciting milestone in our 20-year history,' said Chris Broderick, CEO, GroupLogic.
'We are very pleased to be first-to-market with an enterprise-ready secure file management solution that appeals to our 6000 existing customers across the globe, as well as thousands more enterprises in multiple industries. As tablet adoption increases and employees become even more mobile, GroupLogic is committed to enabling IT to provide simple, secure and managed access to corporate assets.'

NETASQ versie 9: Nieuwe firmware voor extra beveiliging
Een nieuwe next generation firewall of UTM kan wonderen verrichten voor de beveiliging van je bedrijfsnetwerk. De apparaten moeten dan natuurlijk wel zijn uitgerust met de nieuwste firmware om effectief hun werk te kunnen doen. Voor de UTMs van NETASQ is binnenkort versie 9 beschikbaar, die verschillende verbeteringen biedt. Deze zijn, toevallig of niet, in te delen in negen verschillende deelgebieden. Een van de meest opvallende is een verbeterde snelheid van de veiligheidscontrole van het netwerkverkeer, terwijl de controle zelf grondiger dan ooit wordt uitgevoerd. Volgens NETASQ is de doorvoersnelheid van UTMs uit de NG-serie hiermee verhoogd met 50 procent. Daarnaast zorgt versie 9 er met het zogenoemde NETASQ High Availability voor dat de beveiliging bij een switch-over naar een andere UTM (in het uitzonderlijke geval dat een apparaat hardwarematig uitvalt) slechts voor een minimale tijd wegvalt. Hierdoor kun je ongestoord blijven kijken
naar streaming video en kunnen voip-gesprekken gewoon doorgaan.De meest in het oog springende verbetering is ongetwijfeld de vernieuwde gebruikersinterface waarmee je UTMs gemakkelijker en intuïtiever kunt configureren. NETASQ heeft er deze keer bovendien voor gekozen om de interface web-based te maken, waarmee je deze vanaf elke computer met internetverbinding kunt gebruiken.Het instellen van een UTM wordt niet alleen gemakkelijker dankzij de nieuwe gebruikersinterface, maar ook doordat versie 9 meehelpt bij het instellen van de beveiliging. Veel inbreuken op de beveiliging zijn namelijk te herleiden naar configuratiefouten in het beveiligingssysteem. NETASQ versie 9 waarschuwt daarom de beheerder wanneer hij of zij de UTM verkeerd dreigt in te stellen of staat bepaalde configuraties in het geheel niet toe. Met de nieuwe firmware kunnen de UTMs van NETASQ dieper in netwerkverkeer kijken dat met ssl-encryptie beveiligd is. Vervolgens kan bekeken worden of het
daadwerkelijk om bedrijfsinformatie gaat, of dat er wellicht een hacker actief is binnen de beveiligde verbinding.Daarnaast komt versie 9 met een verbeterde inspectie van applicaties en websites, iets wat zeker welkom is gezien de stijgende populariteit van web-apps en social media. Met de nieuwe firmware kun je niet alleen gebruikersgroepen specificeren, maar ook specifieke toepassingen, links en apis blokkeren.Versie 9 komt verder met een uitgebreide database van vulnerabilities, zwakke plekken in programmas en toepassingen die door hackers worden uitgebuit. UTMs van NETASQ met de nieuwe firmware detecteren wanneer een van je medewerkers bijvoorbeeld een verouderde en daarmee kwetsbare browser gebruikt en stuurt hiervan een bericht naar de beheerder. Deze kan vervolgens het systeem up-to-date maken. De nieuwe firmware bevat verschillende configuraties waarmee je de beveiliging stapsgewijs kunt implementeren binnen je bedrijf. Zo kun je er eerst voor kiezen om de
firewall zelf actief te maken, en in een later stadium andere UTM-functionaliteiten toevoegen. Hiermee kan de IT-afdeling zich stapsgewijs voorbereiden op de komst van nieuwe beveiliging.Tenslotte zal na installatie van NETASQ versie 9 het niet meer nodig zijn om bij toekomstige updates van de firmware te herstarten. Ook al is het maar voor een paar minuten, het is wel zo prettig dat hiermee je firewall en dus je complete netwerkbeveiliging niet meer offline hoeft.Versie 9 van NETASQ is begin juni beschikbaar als gratis download voor bezitters van een UTM uit de U-serie en de NG-serie met geldig maintenance contract. De firmware werkt niet op de F-serie, maar gebruikers van een UTM uit deze reeks krijgen een fikse korting wanneer ze hun apparaat omruilen voor ŽŽn uit de U-serie. <br>
