New version of security software solution is
designed to help provide a safeguard that customers can use when it
comes to printing, copying, scanning or faxing sensitive
information
Canon U.S.A. Inc., a leader in digital imaging solutions, is
pleased to announce the new imageWARE Secure Audit Manager (SAM)
Express V2.1, a security software solution for audit purposes in
the information security space.
According to the International Data Corporation (IDC),1 80
percent of organizations expect to suffer at least one successful
attack causing serious harm that requires remediation. IDC’s
analysis also found the average total cost of a data breach clocked
in at $1.3 million. With the increasing frequency of security
leaks, there is a growing need for companies to take interest in
security software solutions, such as the imageWARE SAM ExpressV2.1,
which is designed to help provide a safeguard that customers can
use when it comes to printing, copying, scanning or faxing
sensitive information.
Now sold exclusively as a module within uniFLOW, imageWARE SAM
Express V2.1, software can detect key words within the document and
notify administrators of potential leaks. The software provides a
content audit trail by monitoring various activities on supported
Canon devices, including print, scan, fax and copy, and by
capturing, archiving and notifying what information users add to
the system should a possible leak occur.
“As the risk of security breaches continues to increase, it’s
critical for companies to take preventative measures to ensure
confidential information is protected,” said Randy Dazo of
InfoTrends. “We’re confident that the newly enhanced imageWARE SAM
Express V2.1 will provide a powerful option that businesses can
incorporate into their overall information security strategy.”
“The imageWARE Secure Audit Manager platform is a groundbreaking
solution,” said Jamie Bsales, senior editor at Buyers Lab LLC
(BLI). “The latest version promises tight integration with the
award-winning uniFLOW platform and has the capacity to help
organizations with an aspect of the vexing problem of information
security at the MFP level.”
Key Features and Benefits
The imageWARE SAM Express V2.1 can archive images processed on
any supported Canon device2 throughout an office and can capture
associated job attributes such as user, time, document type and
device function used. By archiving copies, prints, faxes and scans,
imageWARE SAM Express V2.1 can establish an easy means for
administrators to audit internal document processing
activities.
In addition to its archiving features, the imageWARE SAM Express
V2.1 can also send images through uniFLOW to produce an OCR
searchable text document of the archived image. Through a powerful
keyword designation feature, keywords can be designated as high
risk, and when scanned, printed or copied these key words can
trigger an alert email to IT or Security Administration personnel
so that such personnel can quickly respond as they see
appropriate.
“With highly publicized security breaches featured in the media,
companies are realizing that security threats have grown more
common in the workplace. As a result, security software solutions
have become a necessity in the way that companies do business,”
said Junichi Yoshitake, general manager and vice president of
Business Imaging Solutions Group, Canon U.S.A., Inc. “Canon is
proud to introduce imageWARE SAM Express V2.1 and continue arming
businesses with the tools to audit internal document processing
activities.”
Availability
imageWARE SAM Express V2.1 is now available, and sold
exclusively as a module within uniFLOW. It is available through
Canon authorized dealers who can also consult and architect the
best configuration of the solution for virtually any
enterprise.
