Digital Guardian Announces Strategic OEM Agreement with Boldon James
January 2017 by Marc Jacob
Digital Guardian announced an OEM partnership with QinetiQ’s data security company Boldon James, a provider of User-Driven Data Classification and Secure Messaging solutions. The OEM partnership has allowed Digital Guardian to integrate Boldon James Classifier Foundation Suite and CAD Classifier into version 7.3 of their data protection platform to enable user-driven data classification.
While there are many unknowns about the threat actors in today’s cyber security environment, there is one thing security practitioners know very well – the goal of their attacks is to steal sensitive business and personal data. A foundational element required to safeguard sensitive data is the ability to understand its value and apply a classification to match that. The security industry offers essentially three approaches to do data classification – content, context and user-driven – and with the Boldon James OEM agreement, Digital Guardian now provides all three approaches in one unified platform.
In addition to the API integration of Boldon James Classifier Foundation Suite and CAD Classifier, the OEM agreement also makes Digital Guardian an authorized reseller of the following add-on user classification modules from Boldon James:
• OWA Classifier (for Outlook Web App 2007 and 2010)
• Classifier Mail Add-In for OWA (OWA 2013, 2016 and Office 365)
• SharePoint Classifier
• Exchange Classifier
• Mobile Classifier
• Mobile Filter
