SECUDE, an established global security service provider], today announced the availability of HALOCAD for AUTODESKin the Microsoft Azure Marketplace, online store providing applications and services for use on Azure. SECUDE customers can now take advantage of the productive and trusted Azure cloud platform, with streamlined deployment and management.
CAD files are the primary source of intellectual property for manufacturing companies in industries like automotive, aviation, engineering, and high tech. There is a high risk of losing this IP due to the lack of technical enforcement to protect these files whenever engineers work with or share them with suppliers.
Inside PLM systems, CAD files are protected by PLM security policies. When shared with external parties, these files required the same PLM security profile for protecting the data in uncontrolled IT environments.
Digital Rights Management (DRM) is the only Data-Centric Security approach based on a Zero Trust strategy that protects data everywhere. The main challenge for an efficient collaboration process is to automatically map the PLM security to the access and usage controls of the corresponding DRM protection template.
HALOCAD solves this challenge for CAD and PLM environments by automating Microsoft Purview Information Protection , the unified platform for a companywide DRM and part of M365 E5 Compliance.
Holger Huegel, VP Technology, Secude said, “ The Manufacturing industry is specifically targeted for its intellectual property, theft of trade secrets, technology, and business processes. Therefore, these industries need to up their ante to address challenges such as data privacy and security to safeguard information as well as meet regulatory compliance. Building on the security and scalability of Azure, SECUDE’s HALOCAD will provide a secure, seamless digital experience for our customers”
