Today, HP is faced by a public disclosure of their internal presentation providing details of pricing and features of the HP Slate in comparison to the Apple iPad. The company had released a couple of demo videos for the Slate and these came out pretty soon after the iPad launch.
No one wants the world to know what you are developing before you are ready to make the product presentation on your own terms. Not HP, not Apple or Microsoft or you, for that matter.
Keeping data inside the “perimeter of trust” is paramount to safeguard your ideas, strategies and plans and if this perimeter is breached there is bound to be lot of grief. A mature Information Rights Management system will ensure that the perimeter is not breached and will effectively safeguard the data that needs to be protected.
Information Rights Management allows the user to be able to define the rights for viewing, editing, copying and distribution the document that is being shared. In this case, if the HP presentation was secured under control of the Seclore File Secure rights management system it would be difficult anyone to get “scoop” out ! They would not be able to open the document as they would (in all probability) not be authorized to access the same. In any case, if anyone did try to force the document open (another very difficult task requiring great amounts of resources / cost) it could attract charges of theft and hacking since this would clearly establish that that person is accessing a document for which he/ she has no authorization.
Small events, sometimes, provide guidance for preventive safeguards that help ensuring that there is no major (or minor) incident. As they say, there is a 100% certainty that an incident will occur if you let things be. Controlling data and document chaos using the Seclore FileSecure Information Rights Management system is the solution to effectively address the risk of unauthorized data access that leads to such security breaches and embarrassing disclosures.
