IIT Bombay promoted Seclore and Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (CDAC) have announced a partnership to bring security to open source platforms. The partnership will focus on bringing Seclore’s content level encryption (CLE) security technologies like FileSecure and InfoSource to open source platforms like Linux and Open office.
A lot of commercial technology comes very late to the open source user community, thus affecting the otherwise commercial use of such technologies. Seclore and CDAC have taken up the mandate to ensure that advanced Information Rights Management and Secure outsourcing solutions become available ubiquitously.
Vishal Gupta, CEO of Seclore Technologies, said, “CDAC is among India’s leading computing research and training institutes and we are extremely proud to partner with CDAC in this endeavour. The availability of FileSecure and InfoSource on open source technologies will bring increased security to these environments.”
Zia Saquib, executive director of CDAC, said, “Seclore has proved itself to be an innovative organisation in the information risk mitigation space with its FileSecure and InfoSource products. CDAC is proud to be partnering with Seclore for this endeavour.”
