Tualatin, OR, April, 2, 2015 – Interactive Northwest, Inc. (INI), developer of comprehensive interactive voice recognition (IVR) and contact center integration software, today announced that they have earned the prestigious VerAfied (http://www.veracode.com/directory) security rating for the company’s INI IDReset™ automated password reset application. After a rigorous independent assessment by Veracode, INI IDReset was found to meet stringent requirements for secure enterprise software based on industry standards such as the OWASP Top 10.

Veracode (http://www.veracode.com/) is a leader in securing web, mobile and third-party applications for the world’s largest global enterprises.  Veracode’s automated cloud-based service and world-class experts enable organizations to rapidly address application-layer threats before cyberattackers can exploit them. The VerAfied mark signifies that a software provider has applied appropriate standards of due care in assessing its software and achieving a desired level of security quality. The newly achieved status demonstrates that INI is committed to developing secure web applications for its customers.

“As organizations across every industry increasingly rely on web, mobile and cloud applications as a source of competitive advantage, the threat surface available to cyberattackers has dramatically expanded,” said Chris Wysopal, Veracode co-founder, CTO and CISO. “CIOs and CISOs are increasingly concerned about reducing risk from third-party applications procured via their software supply chains.  The VerAfied security rating tells the world that a third-party software vendor is committed to secure coding practices and keeping its customers’ sensitive data and intellectual property secure.”

INI develops self-service contact center applications for large-scale financial institutions, healthcare organizations, and government agencies, each with their own comprehensive security requirements.

“We take the security of our clients and their customers very seriously at INI,” said Chuck Van Meter, President at Interactive Northwest, Inc. “INI IDReset has been designed to protect the private data of Active Directory users by allowing them to reset their passwords without the assistance of a helpdesk agent. The VerAfied security rating takes that commitment one step further by demonstrating that INI actively maintains the security of the INI IDReset application.”
