wo items tend to dominate any discussion about the protection of digital information:

• Protecting information while it is at rest
• Protecting information while it is in transit

But strangely, few people ever discuss protecting information while it is in someone else's hands—that is, when the information is actually being used "in the wild." Equally ignored is the matter of whose hands we're talking about to begin with.

Pinion Software leaves no questions unanswered when it comes to protecting information assets. Unique in the eDRM space, our solutions provide:

• Iron-clad information security.
  Awarded 11 security-related patents to date, our solutions safeguard your information in a multi-faceted approach—beginning with the OS kernel and the system service layers, all the way to the application level. And our tiny footprint leaves systems resources and performance unencumbered.
• Complete independence from any application and file types.
  Our software allows you to protect any file type without modifying the native application. We support most common business and engineering file types and can easily profile emerging and new file types.
• Native application support.
  Our software allows you to open protected files in their native applications or in the browsers for which they were meant, including PTC Pro/ENGINEER, major CAD-viewers, and even Flash as well as common business applications. Our Pinion Receiver has a tiny footprint and it enables the recipients of secure content to continue working the same as always, with the added benefit that your content is now fully protected.
• Scalability and low total cost of ownership.
  Our software's architecture supports seamless integration with any size business. From simple peer-to-peer, all the way to content-management, PLM, and file-provisioning systems, our solutions leverage existing ID-management, single sign-on, and any other authentication systems.
• Adaptable and fully portable digital identity management.
  Our software's built-in authentication module works independently or jointly with established corporate directories to ensure that your various trust relationships are preserved without having to add yet another authentication model.

In sum, whether you have limited or expansive needs to secure and share content, Pinion Software's solutions stand at the ready. From simple peer-to-peer models, all the way to security-enabling enterprise PLM applications, our software succeeds where others fail: protecting data while it is in-use and ensuring that those who access it are, indeed, who they say they are.
