Brainloop, a leading supplier of software solutions for high-security collaboration
on confidential documents, today announced that it won the ‘2011 Best
Deployment Scenario Award’ from Info Security Products Guide in the Document
Protection category for its work with Deutsche Postbank Group, one of Germany’s
largest financial services providers with €237 billion in assets.
The Brainloop application
provides secure online collaboration inside or outside of the enterprise,
automating security and compliance to give users the peace of mind to focus
entirely on their business goals. Deutsche Postbank selected Brainloop to
protect documents while collaborating with outside agencies working on
quarterly and annual reports.
Postbank’s investor relations department needed a solution that would enable
the bank to work with external agencies four times per year to prepare
quarterly and annual reports in German and English. About 50 project
participants work on tight deadlines to collate corporate data, which is edited
for clarity and must not fall into the wrong hands before publication.
Postbank realized that by using Brainloop, the bank could now meet compliance
regulations that stipulate how confidential information should be handled. In
summary, the bank found itself with a highly secure collaboration platform for
communicating with external agencies.
"User acceptance of the solution was very high right from the
outset," said Lars Stoy, head of investor relations and research at
Postbank. "The solution’s ease of use is a big advantage, especially as we
only work with it at the end of each quarter. And the audit trail of all permissions
and communications ensures that we handle confidential data in accordance with
the relevant compliance requirements."
"The honor of this award really belongs to our customers," said
Brainloop CEO Peter Weger. "We know that people want to focus on their
company’s success, so we make it easy for business users to follow the rules
without having to get bogged down in processes. Using Brainloop, they can rest
assured that their most confidential documents are being securely managed under
their control, yet doing it automatically in accordance with their company’s
confidentiality policies. Protection is applied throughout the document’s
lifecycle, even when it has been downloaded to a local device."
