New Mexico Energy Credit Union Deploys Code Green DLP Solution

Ease of Deployment, Ease of Management, Pricing Were Key Factors in Decision


SUNNYVALE, CA--(Marketwire - January 26, 2009) - Code Green Networks, the leader in comprehensive data loss prevention (DLP) solutions that can be deployed quickly and cost-effectively, today announced that New Mexico Energy Federal Credit Union in Albuquerque, New Mexico, has deployed the Code Green CI-750 Content Inspection Appliance to protect its network against data loss.

The New Mexico Energy Federal Credit Union serves employees and families who work for the Department of Energy and the National Nuclear Security Administration at Kirtland Air Force Base in Albuquerque. In an ongoing effort to protect its sensitive information, the institution's security staff had been looking for solutions that could provide DLP along with e-mail encryption. Code Green's CI-750 appliance delivered on both counts, and at an appropriate price.

"We knew that DLP would give us extra protection against accidental data loss, but most of the products we looked at were far too expensive and complex," said Richard Lipari, information technology officer at New Mexico Energy Federal Credit Union. "Code Green offered us a solution that did all the things we wanted at a fraction of the cost of the other systems."

As deployed in November 2008, the CI-750 appliance inspects content moving over the network as well as at network endpoints. Based on policies created by the credit union, the CI-750 appliance and CI Agent endpoint software blocks unauthorized transfers of sensitive data and encrypts sensitive data being sent via the credit union's corporate e-mail system. The credit union's CI-750 appliance integrates with cloud-based e-mail encryption key servers from Cisco Systems.

"There are thousands of companies like New Mexico Energy Federal Credit Union that work with sensitive financial, healthcare, and other types of information, and yet don't have the IT staff or other resources to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on a DLP solution," said Rod Murchison, vice president of marketing and strategic alliances at Code Green Networks. "Our solutions are designed to deliver complete, robust DLP protection in a cost-effective, easily-deployable package for these smaller firms, as well as to scale up to enterprise-class capabilities if needed."

Code Green Networks' Content Inspection appliances and Content Inspection agents offer an all-in-one solution that inspects and protects secure content on the network, in storage, and at network endpoints, and includes built-in e-mail encryption that integrates from leading encryption servers from Cisco, Voltage, and Zix. With all-in-one design and robust content inspection capabilities, Code Green's DLP solutions can be deployed and in operation within hours, offering customers a total cost of ownership less than half that of competing solutions.
