Messageware OWA Guard Solves Sign-On Security Concerns

Feb. 15, 2011 - PRLog -- RSA Conference 2011, San Francisco, CA – Messageware (http://www.messageware.com), the world's leading provider of enterprise security, productivity and customization solutions for Microsoft Office Outlook Web App and Outlook Web Access (OWA), today announced Messageware OWA Guard for Microsoft Exchange Server 2010. Currently in Beta, this newest endpoint security software for OWA is designed to protect both businesses and their employees from unauthorized access to corporate information.

According to a recent Symantec and Forrester Research report, 67% of large North American organizations have not implemented two-factor authentication for the partners and contractors that access their corporate network. What’s more, 87% of companies expect their users to remember two or more passwords to access corporate resources. Messageware OWA Guard applies advanced security sign-on measures to empower the user and the security administrator with the information and tools they need to protect a user’s logon.

The enterprise software solution protects users and businesses from logon attempts by unauthorized individuals, automated brute-force attacks, password guessers, phishing, man-in-the-middle attacks, key loggers and screen scrapers while prohibiting logons from countries with known hacker communities. Coupled with Exchange FBA, TMG, RSA and other third party logon providers, Messageware and OWA Guard puts pervasive security back in the hands of IT administrators and users.  

Since 1993, Messageware has been providing security solutions that enable organizations to deploy OWA with the confidence that their users and corporate documents are protected, and email sessions are secured. Over 2,500 companies and 5 million users, including several of the Fortune 50 in finance, insurance and banking and a host of global, federal and military agencies, rely on Messageware AttachView, TimeGuard and NavGuard to protect OWA.

OWA Guard will be released in the second quarter. Live demonstrations are being conducted at RSA Conference 2011, Booth 854, February 14 – 18, 2011 in San Francisco, CA and beta testers are presently being sought.
