VASCO Data Security, Inc., a leading software
security company specializing in authentication products today announced
a solution for secure document viewing. VASCO has incorporated its
VACMAN Controller authentication technology with Adobe LiveCycle
Rights Management Enterprise Suite 2 (ES2), offering a secure solution
for documents that need to be accessed over the Internet. By adding
support for VASCO DIGIPASS, the company’s one time password (OTP)
technology, customers can further protect sensitive information from
being exposed by adding two factor authentication for secure document
viewing.
By integrating VASCO authentication technology with LiveCycle
Rights Management ES2, enterprises can now securely send documents
online to reduce administrative handling and filing costs and strengthen
corporate data governance and data loss prevention strategies.
Using LiveCycle Rights Management ES2, customers can encrypt
files and apply policies that help them maintain the confidentiality and
control the use of documents. This allows organizations to lower their
risk by preventing inadvertent or malicious disclosure of sensitive or
confidential information.
With this new collaboration between VASCO and Adobe, when a
user opens a document, LiveCycle Rights Management ES2 will ask for a
username and OTP to allow access. The user will generate an OTP using
his DIGIPASS and enter it in the authentication dialog, providing secure
access to the document.
"Adobe and VASCO share a vision in delivering compelling
security solutions to businesses and government agencies," said John
Landwehr, director of security solutions and strategy at Adobe. "The
integration of VASCO’s VACMAN Controller authentication technology with
Adobe LiveCycle Rights Management ES2 will enable VASCO’s customers to
turn sensitive online data into intelligent, policy-protected documents
to further ensure privacy and security."
"We are excited about our collaboration with Adobe. They are
the experts in secure document handling and distribution. With documents
increasingly being exchanged online, the risk of data breach has only
increased. By integrating DIGIPASS authentication with Adobe LiveCycle
Rights Management ES2 capabilities, higher assurance levels can now be
realized to securely exchange documents and comply with corporate data
governance rules," says Jan Valcke, President and COO at VASCO Data
Security.
