The software suite, Information Foundation 2007, helps administrators set policies and security concerning information flowing across their networks.

Internet Foundation includes licences to use Symantec's Enterprise Vault, Mail Security 8300 series appliance software, IM Manager, and Web Security for Microsoft's Internet Security And Acceleration Server 2004 software, among others.

Adobe Systems will provide the full portable document format (PDF) 1.7 specification to the Enterprise Content Management Association, for publication by the International Organisation for Standardisation, reports Ecoustics.com.

PDF has become a de facto global standard for more secure and dependable information exchange since Adobe published the complete PDF specification in 1993.

Both government and private industry have come to rely on PDF for electronic records that need to be securely and reliably shared, managed, and in some cases preserved for generations.
