YouSendIt Introduces Enterprise Management Services

CAMPBELL, Calif., Sept. 27 /PRNewswire/ -- Thousands of businesses across the globe rely on YouSendIt, Inc. to securely send, receive and track digital files. Today, YouSendIt launched Enterprise Management Services (EMS) for its Corporate Suite customers. With EMS, corporations can now seamlessly and securely integrate the power of YouSendIt file transfer into their managed environment, increasing the productivity and efficiency of end-users while providing more governance capabilities for IT.

According to Osterman Research, file attachments comprise 98 percent of email traffic. The volume of files sent over email not only affects the performance of email servers and in turn the productivity of end-users, but also exposes corporations to potential security risks since email attachments typically are not encrypted and employees often turn to unsanctioned methods for sharing files in an effort to circumvent email attachment limitations.

"Faced with the typical limitations set by corporate email systems, more and more company employees are turning to outside-the-firewall solutions to send files. When this occurs without IT oversight it can leave corporations vulnerable," said Brian Curry, vice president of product and business strategy at YouSendIt. "When sharing files, businesses need not compromise security and policy control for efficiency. YouSendIt's Corporate Suite with EMS integrates seamlessly into end-users' existing environments and provides IT the necessary governance and security."

"YouSendIt is an integral part of the way we share information both internally and externally. The addition of EMS, particularly Microsoft Active Directory integration, streamlines deployment and increases the scalability of YouSendIt," said Nate McBride, executive director, information technology, AMAG Pharmaceuticals. "Through YouSendIt, our employees can securely send files in a manner that fits easily within their current workflow."

Traditional means of sharing files through email, FTP and other ad hoc methods are security nightmares, slow productivity and clog business communications. YouSendIt corporate solution provides companies a secure and reliable file-sharing platform based on a service already adopted by millions of business users worldwide. Users can share files directly from Outlook, the YouSendIt Website, desktop, mobile phone and many other popular applications.

Features of the new YouSendIt Enterprise Management Services include:

• Microsoft Active Directory integration using YouSendIt Directory Services Connector (DSC), to secure and simplify user provisioning and password management
• Customer-available APIs allow integration into customized business workflows
• Centralized policy management for individual users, groups, and entire organizations empowers IT to enforce security, compliance and data retention policies
• Detailed and insightful reporting, including aggregate usage and user level activity provides IT insights into file-sharing trends and the ability to respond to audit requests
