IONU Security Delivers Topic-Based MessagingTM and the Industry’s First Personal Device Management Capabilities

$

0

Longmont, CO, August 22, 2014 --(PR.com)-- IONU Security Inc., the worldwide leader in Transparent Security™, today announced the latest release of its secure messaging solution, InvisiMessageTM. This release of InvisiMessage delivers secure Topic-Based Messaging to IONU users.

Topic-Based Messaging combines the topic (aka: subject) structure that people are accustomed to with email with the convenience of text messaging. Topic-Based Messaging allows people to securely communicate and share attachments in the context of a topic, versus a series of threads assembled the participants. As messaging grows into a common platform for business, it will be essential to provide more of the capabilities that people are used to with email.

IONU InvisiMessage’s multi-platform support allows people to stay active in a topic whether they are using a mobile device or a personal computer, while knowing that their communications and attachments are completely secure. Users have the ability to “hide” messages that they are not currently following or opt of the message completely. Search capabilities allow messages to be found easily within a user’s set of messages.

InvisiMessage allows people to send and receive truly secure, encrypted messages and attachments and synchronized their messages across any number of a user’s secured computers or mobile devices. These devices can be any combination of Android, iOS, Windows or OS X devices. Additionally, users have the ability to control what happens when the recipient receives their message and attachment. Features such as Delivery and Read receipts, Vanish, Timed Vanish, Delete, Recall and Destroy give users insight and control over the lifespan of a message and its content.

In addition, this latest release of InvisiMessage delivers stability and performance enhancements, security advancements, search capabilities, user interface and experience updates and the industry’s first Personal Device Management capabilities.

Personal Device Management

Today, most people use more than one mobile device and several computers to support their daily interactions. Given this, the number of devices and computers that a person needs to manage and synchronize can become daunting. To simplify this, IONU’s User Administration Site provides Personal Device Management capabilities. These capabilities allow people to personally manage their user account and devices from a secure web portal that can be accessed from any web browser.

Unlike Mobile Device Management tools designed for companies to manage people’s mobile devices, IONU’s Personal Device Management capabilities were designed to allow individuals to manage all their IONU protected devices, both desktops and mobile devices.

For example, if a user’s mobile device is lost or stolen, the user can either disable or delete the device their account. All of the IONU protected messages and files on that device are left in a permanently encrypted state - encrypted with keys that are protected and inaccessible from outside the IONU system – and completely secure. This ensures that all of the information on the device is secure. If the device is found, the user can simply re-enable their device, and it will automatically synchronize with their latest messages. Users can also manage their global security and message settings, edit their profile and upgrade their accounts from the User Administration Site.

August 2014 Industry trend and perspectives

StorageIO Industry Trends and Perspectives

The following is a synopsis of some StorageIOblog posts, articles and comments in different venues on various industry trends, perspectives and related themes about clouds, virtualization, data and storage infrastructure topics among related themes.

StorageIO comments and perspectives in the news

StorageIO in the news

Virtual Desktop Infrastructures (VDI) remains a popular industry and IT customer topic, not to mention being one of the favorite themes of Solid State Device (SSD) vendors. SSD component and system solution vendors along with their supporters love VDI as the by-product of aggregation (e.g. consolidation) which applies to VDI is aggravation. Aggravation is the result of increased storage I/O performance (IOP's, bandwidth, response time) from consolidating the various desktops. It should not be a surprise that some of the biggest fans encouraging organizations to adopt VDI are the SSD vendors. Read some of my comments and perspectives on VDI here at FedTech Magazine.

Speaking of virtualizing the data center, software defined data centers (SDDC) along with software defined networking (SDN) and software defined storage (SDS) remain popular including some software defined marketing (SDM). Here are some of my comments and perspectives moving beyond the hype of SDDC.

FCIA Fibre Channel Industry Association

Recently the Fibre Channel Industry Association (FCIA) who works with the T11 standards body of both legacy or classic Fibre Channel (FC) as well as newer FC over Ethernet (FCoE) made some announcements. These announcements including enhancements such as Fibre Channel Back Bone version 6 (FC-BB-6) among others. Both FC and FCoE are alive and doing well, granted one has been around longer (FC) and can be seen at its plateau while the other (FCoE) continues to evolve and grow in adoption. In some ways, FCoE is in a similar role today to where FC was in the late 90s and early 2000s ironically facing some common fud. You can read my comments here as part of a quote in support of the announcement , along with my more industry trend perspectives in this blog post here.

Buyers guides are popular with both vendors, VAR's as well as IT organizations (e.g. customers) following are some of my comments and industry trend perspectives appearing in Enterprise Storage Forum. Here are perspectives on buyers guides for Enterprise File Sync and Share (EFSS), Unified Data Storage and Object Storage. EMC has come under pressure as mentioned in earlier StorageIO update newsletters to increase its shareholder benefit including spin-off of VMware. Here are some of my comments and perspectives that appeared in CruxialCIO. Read more industry trends perspectives comments on the StorageIO news page.
