TITUS Classification For Mobile Offers Organizations Secure Solution For Mobile Email And Documents

Containerized Mobile Email And Document Solution Enhanced With Support for Microsoft RMS

Ottawa, ON (Marketwired) - Organizations have various strategies for adopting mobile devices into their environment. Viewing email attachments on mobile devices and the existence of personal cloud services such as Dropbox can pose serious security and compliance threats because documents are not protected, and employees can share documents with third parties or store documents on public clouds -- completely out of an IT organization's control. TITUS Classification for Mobile provides organizations with a complete mobile email and document security solution to address these concerns.

"On average, 15% of employees are accessing sensitive data such as customer information, non-public financial data, intellectual property, and corporate strategy from devices other than work laptops and desktops. Employees are continuing to use their personal devices to view confidential business information," said Chris Sherman, Analyst with Forrester Research Inc. in his report, 'The State of Enterprise Mobile Security, Q1 2014: Strategies Shift from Devices to Apps' (February 2014).

TITUS Classification for Mobile provides a secure and separate container for business email and documents. The intuitive interface provides direct access to corporate email, SharePoint libraries and common file sharing services, ensuring that sensitive files are managed according to corporate policy. Administrators are able to leverage classifications to enable fine-grained control over a user's ability to email, print, copy, upload, and open files into third party apps. Additional data protection is provided by extending Microsoft Rights Management Services (RMS) to mobile devices, allowing users to access or protect data using Microsoft RMS.

"We have a requirement to protect sensitive information on mobile devices just as we do on the desktop," said John Tatman, Principal Information Assurance Engineer with NATO. "TITUS Classification for Mobile allows NATO to extend our information protection program to mobile information, helping us to ensure that sensitive information is being effectively protected across the organization on any device."

Key features of TITUS Classification for Mobile include:

  • Email Classification - organizations are able to extend their classification scheme to mobile devices, giving users the ability to consistently classify corporate emails sent from both desktop computers and mobile devices.
  • Secure Container - provides containerized solutions to keep business and personal information separate.
  • Mobile Device Management (MDM) Compatible - works in-concert with existing MDM technologies.
  • Mobile Data Loss Prevention - allows administrators to build and enforce mobile DLP policies based on file type or classification to control how mobile emails and documents can be shared, printed, distributed, copied, or uploaded to the cloud.
  • Secure Access to Microsoft SharePoint and Cloud Storage - provides direct access to corporate SharePoint documents and Cloud storage services. Uploaded documents can be automatically encrypted for additional protection of shared files.
  • RMS Protection - allows organizations to view Microsoft Rights Management Services protected information on mobile devices and apply protection to their sensitive files and documents.

"We're excited to see TITUS's new Microsoft Rights Management support for the iOS platform. TITUS Classification for Mobile offers native support for reading RMS protected messages, making RMS protection very transparent for users on iOS who are already familiar with the built-in mail client. Use of the new RMS developer kits for iOS means that email and documents remain protected until consumed on the iOS device. A combination of email and document containers, TITUS Classification for Mobile provides a powerful set of applications capable of RMS protected email and document handling," says Dan Plastina, Group Program Manager for Microsoft Rights Management.
