Exponant, a leader in delivering groundbreaking solutions using smart technologies and highly skilled people, and a value-added reseller for Imperva, today announced the release of SecureSphere for SharePoint 9.5. The release of Imperva's SharePoint protection enhances protection against insider threats, automatically finds SharePoint Web applications and discovers data housed in SharePoint.
SharePoint is one of Microsoft's fastest growing products, bringing the promise of collaboration between employees, partners and customers. The same features that make information easy to share also enables inappropriate access and data leaks, and exposes businesses to Web-based threats. Imperva SecureSphere for SharePoint provides greater control over collaboration, thus helping to ensure the right users have the right access to the right data, by securing lists, sites, libraries, folders and files.
"We believe SharePoint remains under the radar when it comes to security," commented Amichai Shulman, CTO of 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 organisations 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, thus 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) data centre.
