Sendmail, Inc., the leading provider of message processing
appliances and applications for enterprise messaging
infrastructures, and Harris Corporation (NYSE:HRS), an
international communications and information technology company,
are jointly developing and bringing to market an integrated email
and messaging cloud service for commercial enterprises and
government organizations. The service leverages the strength of the
Sendmail Sentrion Message Processing Platform, the Harris Trusted
Enterprise Cloud™ and the Harris Cyber Integration Center™
(CIC).
In the journey to the cloud, enterprises are increasingly
selecting email as one of the first applications due to its
virtualized architecture, need for scalability, and per seat
deployment model. However, enterprise email running on a public
cloud may not be able to meet the enterprise requirements for
availability, security, and performance. Harris and Sendmail have
integrated enterprise-grade email and cloud infrastructure to
produce a service designed for mission critical workflows.
"In today’s online world, when your email stops working so does
your business," said Rich Plane, head of Solution Development and
Delivery, Harris Cyber Integrated Solutions. "While it makes sense
to run email in the cloud, it is a mistake to run email in a cloud
you can’t trust. The combination of Sendmail with Harris’ Trusted
Enterprise Cloud and Cyber Integration Center delivers world-class
email and messaging for commercial and government
organizations."
Sendmail provides enterprise email and messaging systems that
are currently being used by hundreds of thousands of enterprises
around the world including seven of the world’s largest financial
services organizations, three of the largest U.S. government
agencies, the world’s largest telecom and technology providers, and
top Fortune 1000 companies. The Sendmail Sentrion Messaging
Processing Platform and Message Processing Engine deliver an
exceptional combination of site-specific customization,
scalability, policy-based routing, security, filtering, and systems
management.
Harris Trusted Enterprise Cloud is the preeminent cloud hosting
system available today combining patented trust enablement
technology, industry leading hardware and software, world-class
infrastructure, and operational excellence. The Harris Cyber
Integration Center is an innovative cloud node that was designed
from the ground up to offer technology and services that meet the
highest industry and government standards for reliability and
security. Key differentiators in these offerings are the Global
Trust Repository and the Enterprise Trust Server, which provide
continuous monitoring, assurance, and attestation that the software
and configurations in the cloud environment are deployed and
operating according to specification and have not been
compromised.
"Security, computer-generated email systems, multiple encryption
requirements, regulatory compliance, policy enforcement, deep
content scanning, data loss prevention and high-volume outbound
mail are but a few of the challenges enterprises face when moving
email to the cloud," said Jim Seaman, vice president, Federal and
Systems Integrators, Sendmail. "The joint Sendmail Harris messaging
cloud system provides a platform and a toolkit for enterprises to
overcome these challenges and deploy an email system they can
trust."
Harris and Sendmail have finalized system configurations and
on-boarding procedures for their cloud email service and are
working with a number of large commercial organizations and federal
agencies on deployments.
