To help companies secure the transfer of documents from multifunction
printers/scanners/copiers and business applications, Accellion, Inc. today
announced the SMTP Satellite. The SMTP Satellite works in conjunction with
Accellion`s Managed File Transfer appliance and extends file tracking, reporting
and encryption to files originating from scanners and business applications. By
offloading the delivery of large scanned documents and reports from email, the
SMTP Satellite improves email performance and reduces email storage requirements
while preventing data leaks.
Non-secure transfer of scanned documents and business reports containing
intellectual property and confidential personal information can quickly become a
security issue. Using the SMTP Satellite in conjunction with Accellion Managed
File Transfer provides business users the ability to easily and securely
transfer large scanned documents and confidential reports without clogging up
email. Each document is tracked and secured during transit enabling compliance
with SOX, HIPAA, FDA and GLB regulations.
"The Accellion SMTP Satellite enables corporations to increase information
security and compliance within their organizations," said Yorgen Edholm,
president and CEO of Accellion. "Organizations need to be able to share
confidential information and have in place safeguards for securing and tracking
the flow of intellectual property and confidential personal data. Extending the
functionality of Accellion Managed File Transfer to document scanners and
business reporting offers corporations and government agencies the opportunity
to further streamline business processes and increase security."
The Accellion SMTP Satellite is available in either virtual or hardware
appliance form factors. One SMTP Satellite can service multiple (10-25) document
scanners.
