Summary


Company Background
Our client is a Federal data center providing cost-efficient IT enterprise solutions to support the information technology needs of customers within the Federal sector. Their offerings include a full complement of technical solutions including platform-hosting services, total information assurance, customer business continuity, data conversation and interfacing, configuration management, and application administration.

Challenges and Requirements
The data center provides processing services to various government and military agencies and was transferring large files containing confidential information from their z/OS mainframe to multiple Federal Government agencies nightly.

Although the data center had a secure pipe (SSL), they wanted to ensure that the data was fully protected once it left the pipe, while awaiting retrieval. They wanted a solution that could support multiple computing platforms, and, because the files being transmitted were relatively large, they needed to compress the information prior to encryption so they could batch the files and still meet processing windows.

The Solution - SecureZIP
The data center researched several security options and realized SecureZIP was the best fit for their environment. SecureZIP’s ability to provide data security at rest and in transit, as well as interoperability across all major computing platforms were key factors in the data center’s decision.

The data center was able to meet all of their goals while increasing processing efficiencies. And, because ZIP technology continues to be a recognized brand in the marketplace, they knew they were using a stable, reliable, and proven application.
