Imperva,
Inc. (NYSE: IMPV), a pioneer and leader of a new category of data
security solutions for high-value business data in the data center,
today announced SecureSphere for SharePoint 9.5, enhancing compromised
insider protection, and automated application discovery and data
discovery integration.
The adoption of SharePoint for business data and
applications raises critical questions about the security of
collaboration. The same features that make information easy to share
also enable inappropriate access and data leaks, and expose businesses
to Web-based threats. Imperva SecureSphere for SharePoint provides
greater control over collaboration, helping to ensure the right users
have the right access to the right data, by securing lists, sites,
libraries, folders and files and enabling administrators to create
security policies and to manage access rights for any of these objects.
"We believe SharePoint remains under the radar when
it comes to security," said Amichai Shulman, CTO, Imperva. "SecureSphere
for SharePoint is designed to support the benefits of collaboration
while mitigating security concerns for SharePoint's Web, file, and
database components, so that organizations can more readily share
information while decreasing the associated risks."
New SecureSphere for SharePoint features include:
Compromised Insider Protection
- SecureSphere guards against the use of stolen credentials, such as
user names and passwords, by enabling administrators to build
"whitelist" or "blacklist" policies based on user IP addresses, ensuring
only trusted users can access sensitive SharePoint applications and
data.
Automated Application Discovery
- Imperva SecureSphere for SharePoint automatically discovers
SharePoint Web applications, streamlining security and compliance by
enabling visibility and control over deployments at both the Site
Collection and Application level.
Data Discovery Integration
- SecureSphere can identify and protect critical SharePoint data via
integration with third-party data discovery solutions such as RSA Data
Loss Prevention (DLP) Datacenter.
SecureSphere for SharePoint version 9.5 is expected
to be available in June 2012. Pricing begins at $17,000 USD. For more
