Security Solution Protects Federal Government and DoD Information

Automates the process of securely changing server IDs and passwords, improving security, increasing quality of service by reducing outages, and potentially saving millions of dollars by eliminating manual updates

Cloakware Inc., one of the world's leading provider of products and services that protect digital assets, announced a partnership with ShieldWolf, a provider of engineering services to the Department of Defense and Federal government. ShieldWolf has added Cloakware Server Password Manager (CSPM) to its portfolio of infrastructure management and security solutions. CSPM is the first and only commercial solution that addresses the issue of hard coded passwords in applications that reside on unattended servers. CSPM automatically updates passwords, thereby improving efficiency and eliminating downtime. Changing and managing hard coded passwords in applications on unattended servers is an issue that affects every government organization.

Government organizations at all levels require cost-effective and world-class solutions to protect sensitive information in all environments. CSPM meets this need, enabling ShieldWolf to offer an automated solution for updating server passwords, as opposed to having to process them manually and share amongst a group.

"CSPM allows our customers to eliminate hard coded passwords from their applications while maintaining authorized access throughout their organizations," said Randy Caldejon, president of ShieldWolf. "CSPM lets our customers manage their administrator and unattended application passwords without incurring the costs of redeploying applications every time a password changes."

Within large commercial and government organizations, it is a standard practice to hard code server passwords into applications where they are visible to developers, administrators and contractors. Now driven by legislation to regularly update server passwords, agencies are finding that manual updates are costly and can cause outages. CSPM automates the process of securely changing server IDs and passwords, improving security, increasing quality of service by reducing outages, and potentially saving millions of dollars by eliminating manual updates.

"As a leading provider of engineering services to government organizations, ShieldWolf enables its customers to decrease management costs, while increasing operational efficiencies and security," said Jeff Waxman, chief executive officer at Cloakware. "By adding support for CSPM, ShieldWolf is further delivering security solutions that help protect critical information within government agencies
