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.
