How can you ensure your company is protected from leaking confidential information?

It’s all too easy for users to email attached documents that have hidden metadata – here are some costly examples of data leaks suffered by Google, AT&T, Merck and others.

According to the Computer Security Institute, internal users now cause the greatest number of IT security problems (read their report here). Information in electronic documents can reveal trade secrets, confidential financial details or vital legal information.

To prevent this kind of information loss, 3BView provides innovative solutions for the secure exchange of electronic communications and documents. In the Information Leak Prevention (ILP) market, 3BView has the most advanced technology and the easiest to use solutions.

Our products use advanced policy-based processing to monitor and control outbound electronic communications, for example to remove metadata accidentally left in a document before it is emailed, such as tracked changes or author names.

3BView’s technology sits alongside your email server, integrates with your other business systems, or is provided as a service hosted by us, and works with Windows, Mac and Linux desktops. Our 3BClean product cleans metadata from a wide range of documents including Microsoft Word and PowerPoint, Open Document Format (ODF) and PDF.

Working with all email clients including webmail and mobile devices, 3BClean goes beyond other document metadata removal tools. It is a scalable server-based solution that caters for cleaning metadata from a single document being submitted directly by a user, to fully automated cleaning that is transparent to the user. 3BClean can also convert documents to PDF format for extra protection.

3BView also develops products for document transformation and the creation of secure documents for archiving.
