The combined solution of Digital Guardian and Zix provides
advanced technology for identifying and remediating sensitive

sensitive information in email. The solution will also be offered
on an annual subscription basis, reducing upfront costs.
Digital Guardian offers sophisticated content inspection and
detection capabilities to recognize and protect many forms of
sensitive data. The ability to accurately detect sensitive
information using data fingerprinting provides data loss protection
that is extremely accurate, powerful and consistent. Using Digital
Guardian for Data Loss Prevention and ZixEncryptSM seamlessly
integrates leading solutions and enhances the user experience – all
enabling stronger compliance with data security and privacy
regulations.
“We chose to partner with Zix because of their deep experience
in securing sensitive information, especially in highly regulated
industries such as financial services, retail and healthcare,” said
Ken Levine, President and Chief Executive Officer, Digital
Guardian. “With Digital Guardian for Data Loss Prevention, Zix
customers will benefit from having a solution that not only
protects their sensitive data but is also faster to deploy, easier
to manage, highly accurate and significantly less costly than
alternative solutions.”
“As large enterprises look to expand data protection, as well as
consolidate their IT security partners, it’s critical that Zix
evolve with their needs and evaluate ways to better serve our
customers. Expanding our DLP capabilities with a recognized leader
in enterprise DLP will enable us to meet those needs and maintain
trusted relationships with our large customers,” said David Wagner,
President and Chief Executive Officer, Zix. “As the first Digital
Guardian partner to offer this solution in an annual subscription
