For Immediate Release
ISIS Papyrus Introduces First Deep-Integrated Application
and System Security for Enterprise Content Management
Multi-faceted Strategy provides complete control
over document access
SOUTHLAKE, TX, OCT. 27, 2005 – ISIS
Papyrus, a global leader in business document systems,
has introduced the first deep-integrated application
and system security for enterprise content management
(ECM).
The ISIS
Papyrus Document System incorporates six elements into
its fully integrated security system:
• Authentication – ensure
that a user is identified with certainty;
• Confidentiality – encrypt
the document and data transmissions;
• Authorization – control
what someone can do with a document or workflow;
• Accountability – track
what someone does with a document;
• Authenticity – verify
the originality and source of a document, and
• Auditing – able
to create a full record of compliance.
“The Papyrus Document System provides perfect
control over how, when, and by whom your documents
are captured, created, accessed, changed, deleted,
and archived,” said Annemarie Pucher, co-founder
and head of global sales for ISIS Papyrus. “In
addition to reducing risk, the Papyrus security integration
improves productivity, simplifies log-on procedures,
and lowers the cost of ensuring regulatory compliance.”
For user authentication,
the Papyrus system integrates SmartCard User Authentication
plus a PIN or biometric fingerprint identification,
rather than a password system. Using a SmartCard with
fingerprint reader ensures a user’s identity
and enforces compliance without the possibility for
human error. Once the card is pulled from the reader,
all Papyrus applications (and optionally the workstation)
are locked out. Since
the user certificate and fingerprint are securely stored
on the card, authentication does not require network
access.
Papyrus
ensures confidentiality by encrypting the data transmissions
and all data objects stored. For Web applications, Papyrus uses HTTPs, the
secure version of HTTP, the communication protocol of the World Wide Web. It
provides authentication and encrypted communication for browser access to a
WebPortal server.
Authorization defines
what a person, once identified, is permitted to do
with an application or system resource. Papyrus Objects uses an integrated authorization
system to ensure that no user or program can access or do anything without the
proper authorization.
Papyrus
achieves accountability through a
combination of user authentication and setting up the
auditing functions for a workflow and its related documents.
The user’s role and policy determine what he
or she can access, and all activities of the user also
can be written into an audit log.
Papyrus
achieves and maintains authenticity through
a combination of encryption, digital signature, and
change in workflow status. At this point, the document,
such as a contract, can only be opened by authorized
parties. As long as the signature is intact, the authenticity
of the document can be verified without the need for
storing the document to Write-Only media. Only users
who have the authority to access the public key of
the document can actually read it.
Almost
since its inception, the Papyrus Document System has
integrated audit capabilities
into its applications. Standard Papyrus document design,
scheduling, and distribution features control when
and which reports are formatted, how, and distributed
to whom.
