2 min read
Long Beach, CA –July 16, 2008 – According to a U.S. Federal Trade Commission report, identity theft due to personal data found in online and shared documents is the fastest growing crime in the U.S. Over 800,000 fraud and identity theft complaints were received by the Federal Trade Commission in 2007. Exposure to these records puts people’s security at risk. Therefore, Extract Systems and Laserfiche, a best-in-class document management software company, have joined together to provide ID Shield, a powerful and cost effective redaction tool that helps streamline the process of securing sensitive data in electronic documents.
ID Shield for Laserfiche brings the power of Extract Systems’ redaction technology to documents stored in the Laserfiche information repository. Whether you need to redact millions of existing documents, a handful of documents on an ongoing basis, or every document added to the repository, ID Shield protects sensitive data.
“ID Shield will serve as an extra tool to help ensure the security our customers need to address identity theft and other security issues. We welcome them as a Professional Developer Partnership (PDP) program member,” said Alex Wilson, Laserfiche Manager of the PDP program.
“We would like to help Laserfiche’s customers fight identity theft. This partnership will help us reach those organizations that are concerned with securing data including government, healthcare, and the financial sectors.” said Extract Systems’ Vice President, Mark Miller.
