Automated Policy Enforcement

Palo Alto, Calif.-based PSS Systems released the AtlasIPM (Information Policy Management) suite, an enterprisewide solution that enables firms to automate the enforcement of their information policies. "AtlasIPM is ultimately automating the application of the company's rules," says Deidre Paknad, PSS Systems' CEO.

The AtlasIPM suite is comprised of two components: Policy Atlas, a policy repository that allows firms to define policies in a global, central system of record; and Policy Point, an agent that synchronizes with Policy Atlas to enforce information policies automatically across global, decentralized enterprise information. "When documents need to be collected in response to a regulatory or litigation event, ... the enforcement component can actually automate the collection and aggregation of those documents," Paknad explains. Pricing starts at $100,000.
