Updates Improve Integration, Usability and Accessibility, Help Protect Information Inside and Outside Corporate Boundaries
AIIM International Conference and Expo, Boston   03-MAR-2008 05:00 AM   
  • To strengthen content security and improve the way enterprise content is created, managed and stored, Oracle today announced several significant updates to the Oracle(r) Enterprise Content Management Suite, a component of Oracle Fusion Middleware.
  • The enhancements improve organizations' ability to secure content by automating encryption of documents stored in Oracle Universal Content Management through a new integration with Oracle Information Rights Management.
  • The integration of Oracle Universal Content Management and Oracle Information Rights Management:
    • Protects documents and emails that users check in to Oracle Universal Content Management by sealing them with Advanced Encryption Standard and RSA cryptography;
    • Helps prevent unauthorized access to electronic documents and emails - even if it they have been downloaded, emailed, copied or transferred outside the corporate network;
    • Allows administrators to control access to electronic documents and emails by local and remote users at the individual and group level at any time; and
    • Does not require user intervention or restrict legitimate access to and search of the encrypted information.
  • Oracle also delivered several new features to Oracle Universal Content Management including:
    • Folios, which enable grouping of multiple content items for distribution, retention control, workflow and automatic rendering into a single document or other formats;
    • Support for BPEL-based (Business Process Execution Language) processes, or standards-based integrations and processes, which helps streamline the integration of document workflows and enterprise applications to enable organizations to more effectively use enterprise content, improve efficiency and accelerate business processes;
    • Improved AJAX-based user interface, which simplifies Web editing for line-of-business users, provides broader platform and browser support, and increases accessibility through W3C level 1 and 2 compliance;
    • A new forms editor that enables business users to create and edit online forms without the help of IT staff;
    • Integration with several Oracle products including:
      • Oracle's AutoVue Enterprise Visualization - to enable native document viewing, annotation and real-time collaboration on hundreds of document types, including CAD, without conversion, directly from within Oracle Universal Content Management;
      • Oracle Business Intelligence Publisher - for automated published report management and distribution; and
      • Oracle Secure Enterprise Search - incorporates secure, role-appropriate access to content within the system's repository within an enterprise-wide search.
  • Today's news is the latest unveiling of enhancements to Oracle's enterprise content management software; in the past 12 months Oracle:
    • Delivered new versions of several components within Oracle's content management platform - Oracle Universal Content Management, Oracle Imaging and Process Management; Oracle Information Rights Management and Oracle Universal Records Management;
    • Strengthened its content management solution with the acquisition of Captovation, a leading provider of document capture solutions that streamline the process of capturing mission-critical content for access from within business applications and processes; and
    • Won the 2008 InfoWorld Technology of the Year Award for Best Enterprise Content Manager with Oracle Universal Content Management.

    Supporting Quotes

    • "Enterprises need a secure method for distributing sensitive content to employees, customers and partners. With the integration of Oracle Information Rights Management and Oracle Universal Content Management, organizations can help ensure that security is applied to electronic content wherever it resides. With this update, users don't have to worry about security settings, which enables results that are more consistent with corporate standards and helps reduce errors," said Frank Radichel, vice president, Software Development, Oracle.
    • "Content Security, as a layer that unites enterprise content management investments and addresses the lifecycle of content creation, is not a technology in search of a business problem, but a direct response to the challenges of surviving and thriving as a business in the 21st century." From "AIIM Market IQ: Content Security at the Fulcrum of Innovation and Risk," Carl Frappaolo and Dan Keldsen, October 2007, Market Intelligence
