The Workshare product suite is great for securing your company’s intellectual property and other critical data. Workshare just recently released a network appliance that is designed to sit between your company’s intranet and the Internet acting as a gatekeeper. It can function as a MTA or just passively monitor your network traffic.

The appliance uses policies, created by the admin, to determine what characteristics to look for in emails, IMs, data transfers, and more. If it finds any of these characteristics the appliance puts a halt to the transmission. I am excited that we have decided to partner with them. MC+A will be implementing Workshare across our network. You can find a little more information on Workshare and Information Leakage here:

This technology allows users to share links to information they find useful. By combining this technology with enterprise search, it allows users to combine the power of search engine relevancies with a democratic method to determine usefulness. MC+A has recently partnered with ConnectBeam.

As ConnectBeam describes themselves:

“Connectbeam brings the ‘Web 2.0′ information-sharing, collaboration, and ease of use of sites like MySpace, Flickr, and del.icio.us to the daily work-flow of enterprise employees. It helps companies boost innovation, improve decisions, intensify collaboration, and build critical stakeholder relationships.”

Ephraim Schwartz, from information week, recently posted an article describing the company here.

The appliance comes out of the box with the following features: Bookmarking,Tags,Share Information,Find Information – & People,Dynamic Profile and Recent Activity.
