Raytheon, Kazeon join on data protection


Published: March 14, 2008 at 4:09 PM
SALT LAKE CITY, March 14 (UPI) -- U.S. company Raytheon Oakley Systems and Kazeon Systems have joined forces on data leakage prevention.

"Raytheon Oakley Systems, Inc., and Kazeon Systems, Inc., have partnered to integrate Raytheon Oakley's data leakage prevention, user activity monitoring, investigation and forensics capabilities with Kazeon's eDiscovery platform to provide a single solution for insider threat protection," Raytheon said in a statement Monday.

"Raytheon Oakley Systems is a leader in insider threat protection, and Kazeon Systems is a leading provider of intelligent eDiscovery solutions," Raytheon said.

"Joining Raytheon and Kazeon solutions provides an unprecedented electronic data discovery and insider threat protection solution that covers data at rest or in motion across the network and endpoints," said Derek Smith, president of Raytheon Oakley Systems.

"Our customers are increasingly demanding electronic data discovery as part of their security portfolio. They know it's impossible to protect critical data if they don't know what it is or where it is in their enterprise," Raytheon said.

Raytheon said Raytheon Oakley Systems "integrates with the Kazeon eDiscovery solutions to provide proactive detection and prevention services across a company's network. Kazeon automatically discovers data at rest and, if the electronically stored information matches a risk profile, moves sensitive data to a secure location for further monitoring. Raytheon Oakley automatically fingerprints collected data to monitor its use on endpoints and its movement across the enterprise network."

"If uninformed users expose sensitive data, Raytheon Oakley detects the policy violation, notifies the user of the policy and reports the violation. When a malicious insider attempts to steal intellectual property or customer data, Raytheon Oakley can prevent the activity, alert the appropriate investigator, prioritize the incident by severity and capture indisputable visual evidence of the crime," the company said.

Sudhakar Muddu, president and CEO of Kazeon said, "Kazeon's products enable customers to easily, cost effectively and pro-actively implement solutions to a broad range of electronic data discovery challenges."

"It's vital to find, classify and pro-actively monitor sensitive data, to minimize insider threat risk," Smith said.

"The solution is available immediately. As part of the agreement, Raytheon Oakley Systems is reselling the Kazeon Information Server," Raytheon said.
