Data Auditing and Compliance Leader Lumigent Expands Services Offerings


New Policy Deployment Workshops Help Enterprises Quickly Address Challenges Associated with Audits, Security and Compliance

ACTON, Mass., Sept. 12 -- Lumigent Technologies today announced it has added to its service offerings to include three-day engagements with existing and potential customers to help define, fine-tune and automate their data auditing and compliance systems. The new offering is in response to strong customer demand for greater assistance with the increasing complexity of data auditing and the security needs associated with growing regulatory requirements and IT control frameworks.

The three-day sessions, called the "Lumigent Policy Deployment Workshop," are designed to assist Lumigent customers with the mapping of Lumigent's technical solutions to company-specific business issues related to data audit, security and compliance. The workshop is also available to potential customers to demonstrate the value of Lumigent's solutions.

"As the scale and scope of our customer implementations grow, we have seen a dramatic increase in requests for consultative services around best practices for safeguarding data," said Roger Hodskins, Lumigent vice president of marketing and strategic alliances. "This new offering to our services portfolio helps benefit Lumigent customers so they are well positioned to leverage our experience and expertise. They are better able to tailor our solutions specifically to their business requirements to ensure accelerated business value on their implementations."

The "Lumigent Policy Deployment Workshop" involves experts from Lumigent's professional services team conducting an on-site visit with a customer and focuses on a five-phase approach that includes:

1. Assess and Discover: During this initial phase, Lumigent professionals
work closely with customers to better understand their regulations and
assess how to apply best practices. Lumigent also reviews the IT
control framework and previous audit findings to determine the scope of
required controls.

2. Translate and Design: Lumigent interviews the company's IT security,
compliance and audit teams to validate their regulations, best
practices and frameworks against Lumigent's deep body of experience and
subsequently identify gaps. Lumigent then takes what is often a large
body of technical terms and requirements and boils them down to terms
that resonate with compliance managers, auditors, CISOs and CSOs so
that everyone has the same level of understanding.

3. Enable and Test: Lumigent professionals design an end-to-end strategy
to enable and automate controls and then test the system to make sure
everything is in working order.

4. Analyze and Validate: Lumigent then applies the desired strategy so
that it can be implemented within the parameters of Lumigent Audit DB,
Lumigent's leading database auditing, compliance and security solution.
Working hand-in-hand, Lumigent and the company's IT staff roll out the
new solution for immediate comprehensive data auditing.

5. Review and Tune: Lumigent and the IT staff then do a final appraisal of
the system and make any needed adjustments to ensure that everything is
operational and ready for production.

"Demand for our workshop has exceeded our expectations," said Michael Spiers, manager, professional services at Lumigent. "Because the workshop concentrates on the customers' business needs they receive immediate benefit from an implementation mapped to those requirements. That translates not only to better data governance, but also to significant cost savings."
