Tumbleweed� Communications Corp. (NASDAQ:TMWD), a leading provider
of email security, file transfer security, and identity validation
software and appliances, today announced that the company has
combined Tumbleweed MailGate suite�s award winning email security
solutions with the iPRESIDIUM Mailntercept product�s comprehensive
insider threat protection capabilities. The solution leverages
Tumbleweed�s rich feature set for securing inbound and outbound
communications with Mailntercept�s advanced content security for
internal communications, offering broad-based protection against
unauthorized disclosure of sensitive information via external or
internal sources. �Trusted insiders with authorized access to
network resources and sensitive information present the most
dangerous security risk to government and private sector
organizations,� said Adriana Babino, President and Founder of
iPRESIDIUM. �Malicious or inadvertent exposure of confidential data
via internal email can have disastrous legal, financial, and other
consequences to organizations and affected individuals. Integrating
Mailntercept with Tumbleweed�s secure messaging solutions provides
security conscious organizations with the ability to intercept and
take action on internal messages that may violate existing security
policies.� Government agencies and commercial organizations often
create specialized email distribution groups to share information
more efficiently among and across internal departments. Without
proper controls, confidential information sent to multiple
distribution groups may reach individuals who lack proper
authorization to access such information. To address this problem,
organizations can configure Mailntercept and Tumbleweed MailGate to
ensure that messages are delivered only to authorized individuals.
For example, an intelligence agency employee with Top Secret
clearance may be assigned work on a task force comprised of
individuals with lesser clearances. If the employee attempts to
send information to a task force distribution group, Mailntercept
identifies the conflict, blocks delivery to individuals lacking
clearance, and redirects the message to Tumbleweed MailGate for
further analysis and action according to pre-configured security
policies. Tumbleweed�s email client plug-in allows users to tag
messages for special handling. Based on local policies Mailntercept
can redirect these internal messages through Tumbleweed MailGate to
enforce restrictions on message routing or apply special handling
based on the message content. This integration is especially useful
for organizations that maintain the confidentiality of certain
communications or records in compliance with government and
industry regulations. For example, text appended to a message using
this feature can automate the process for storing email
communications in compliance with the National Archives and Records
Administration�s (NARA�s) rules on electronic records management.
�A key component of effective information security is ensuring that
only authorized users can view and use information shared across
internal networks, workgroups, and departments. For
security-focused organizations, monitoring internal communications
is just as or more essential to mission delivery as defending the
perimeter, since internal emails can present threats as varied and
nefarious as anything coming from outside the corporate network,�
said Willy Leichter, director of MailGate product marketing,
Tumbleweed Communications. �Incorporating iPRESIDIUM�s Mailntercept
solution with the Tumbleweed MailGate product suite offers our
government and commercial customers best-in-class capabilities for
securing internal messaging with the latest threat protection
technologies for inbound and outbound communications.� About
iPRESIDIUM Mailntercept Mailntercept is an �Intercept Module� for
Microsoft Exchange Server that uses rules-based interception to
redirect targeted e-mail messages to Tumbleweed MailGate for
analysis and application of appropriate security policies. The
module links into the Internet Information Services (IIS) SMTP
service on the Microsoft Exchange 2000/2003 server and identifies
all internal messages passing through the IIS. Mailntercept directs
the intercepted internal messages to Tumbleweed MailGate for
granular inspection of message properties, content, and
attachments, ensuring complete enforcement of Intranet email
policies. Interception/bypass rules can be applied to individual
users, static groups, and/or LDAP or MS Active Directory dynamic
groups of users. Enforcement actions include quarantining messages
for further review, notifying security officers, restricting
recipients or further message routing, and encrypting, decrypting,
or archiving messages. About Tumbleweed MailGate Suite Tumbleweed�s
