PGP Corporation Joins RSA Secured(R) Partner Program

MENLO PARK, Calif., July 31 /PRNewswire/ -- PGP Corporation, a global
leader in enterprise data protection, today announced that it has joined the
RSA Secured(R) Partner Program to certify interoperability between PGP(R)
Whole Disk Encryption and the RSA SecurID(R) SID800 hardware authenticator
developed by RSA(R), The Security Division of EMC (NYSE: EMC). To prevent
data breaches and address regulatory compliance, organizations are deploying
strong authentication to uniquely validate the identity of users. This
certification enables organizations that have deployed both RSA SecurID
technology and award-winning PGP Whole Disk Encryption to gain further
leverage in their investment and enforce two-factor authentication policies
alongside enhanced data protection for data on laptops, desktops, and
removable media.
"Through the RSA Secured Partner program, joint customers will have
confidence in knowing that they have the combined benefit and security of our
market-leading encryption technology used in conjunction with RSA SecurID two-
factor authentication technology," noted Steven Schoenfeld, vice president of
products and strategy, PGP Corporation. "Together with RSA, we are helping
enterprises across the globe secure their critical business data wherever it
lives or goes."
PGP Whole Disk Encryption provides comprehensive, non-stop disk
encryption, enabling quick, cost-effective protection for data on PCs,
laptops, and removable media. The encrypted data is continuously safeguarded
from unauthorized access, providing strong security for intellectual property,
customer and partner data, and corporate brand equity. PGP Whole Disk
Encryption is now technically interoperable with the RSA SecurID SID800
hardware authenticator to control access to systems at pre-boot
authentication, preventing unauthorized use even before the operating system
boots or resumes.
"It is more critical than ever for companies to increase the security and
integrity of their valuable information. In order to help our joint customers
better protect their information, we are pleased to be working with PGP
Corporation to achieve interoperability between RSA SecurID technology and PGP
Whole Disk Encryption," said D.J. Long, senior director, Corporate Development
at RSA, The Security Division of EMC. "Our organizations are committed to help
mitigate risk to sensitive information throughout its lifecycle to ensure that
it is always an asset - and not a liability - in order to allow organizations
to accelerate their business objectives."
