Axway Certified by the U.S. Government for Data Security

FIPS Certification Further Strengthens B2B Data Security for Synchrony Framework
Customers
PHOENIX--(Business Wire)--
Axway, the Business Interaction Networks company, today announced that the
latest release of the Synchrony Framework has achieved the U.S. government`s
Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) 140-2 Level 1 certification.
This FIPS certification brings the benchmark government data security standard
to Synchrony-powered business-to-business (B2B) transactions and solutions.
Synchrony improves managed file transfer, B2B orchestration and visibility for
real-time business interactions via a service-oriented architecture (SOA).

Synchrony received its FIPS 140-2 Level 1 certification from the National
Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). Recognized globally as a leading
cryptographic security standard, this certification is used to accredit
cryptographic modules in technologies deployed at U.S. government departments
and regulated industries handling sensitive information.

"As collaboration grows globally between private organizations and government
entities, so does the risk of exposing sensitive B2B communications," said Joe
Fisher, senior vice president, product and solutions marketing, Axway. "Earning
one of the most stringent data security certifications globally demonstrates
Axway`s commitment to bringing the highest levels of data security to business
interaction networks."

The latest release of Synchrony also features: an enhanced and collaborative Web
2.0 user experience for monitoring; new Eclipse-based mapping services for
mapping and map simulation; expanded Web services and Web services security; and
enhanced event management for approving, editing and resubmitting business
events based on roles and workflow.

Web 2.0-based User Experience

Synchrony Sentinel now features significant end user enhancements with a
completely refreshed Web 2.0 based user experience. Leveraging Adobe`s Flex
technology, Synchrony Sentinel`s Web 2.0 user experience provides collaborative
Internet- and/or intranet-based access to Synchrony Sentinel. Sentinel`s
improved monitoring and reporting capabilities offer new levels of efficiency
for end users in managing exceptions in business operations and business
processes across all interaction patterns. Collaboration between internal and
external information customers brings efficiency in managing today`s real time
multi-enterprise interactions.

Eclipse-based Mapping Services

New Eclipse-based mapping services provide stand alone (no server connection
required) mapping and testing for improved workflow in managing customer on
boarding and customer changes. Services included are design (mapping and
configuration), validation (test and simulation), integration (deployment) and
documentation (for mappings, specific objects or complete flow).

Event Recycling

Interplay, a new Synchrony component for event recycling, provides services for
approving, editing and resubmitting business events based on roles and workflow.
Interplay powers Axway`s Accounting Integration solution to secure financial
processes and flows. With Axway`s strong visibility and alerting, Interplay
provides immediate alerts and indicates where data problems should be remedied,
audited or approved.
