Central Desktop Delivers Enterprise-Grade Security to Business Teams of All Sizes Through Its Complete Web Collaboration Platform

(March 27, 2008)-- Central Desktop, the complete business collaboration platform for business teams today announced the release of the Central Desktop Security Pack to meet the growing needs of business teams for enterprise-grade security for SaaS adoption. (See: www.centraldesktop.com/security for details). This new feature set addresses security requirements that Central Desktop's customers have been asking for to help them comply with internal security requirements. The enterprise-grade security offering delivers state-of-the-art perimeter, network, server, application and data security to ensure greater data privacy and availability for customers. This applies to both SMBs and organizations that work within industries that require security compliance such as, healthcare and financial services as well as business teams within larger organizations that have more stringent requirements enforced by their IT departments (Corporate Governance, HIPAA, etc).

These new near-enterprise grade features are turnkey, affordable, easy to use and easy to administer which is critical to business teams that rely on Central Desktop's SaaS platform to manage day-to-day business. “We have over 10 GB of information stored and shared by over 200 users in our 125 retail stores nation-wide all accessing the Central Desktop platform on a daily basis,” said Ken Sully, CEO, iSold It. “I evaluated a number of different solutions, including Google's offering, and they lacked the features, flexibility and security we needed. Now with the secure single sign-on features in this release, I've been able to integrate even more functionality into my workspaces without forcing users to log-in to a different system. This is just not available anywhere else for the low cost that Central Desktop offers.”

Unlike many of its competitors, the Central Desktop platform runs on a proven infrastructure designed to provide maximum performance and reliability with state-of-the-art physical and data security and redundancy. Central Desktop's security policy was architected with multiple layers, safeguards and redundancy to ward off external security threats.

“We believe that we are one of the only SaaS companies in the team collaboration space to offer this level of security on a turnkey basis. The security and integrity of our customer's data is integral to the success of our customer's businesses and our reputation as well,” said Isaac Garcia, CEO and Co-Founder, Central Desktop.

Central Desktop provides its software services to more than 100,000 users worldwide. Its average customer is a fast-paced, small-to-medium sized business organization or a team or department within a large Fortune 500 or Global 2000 company. All of these customers, companies and organizations, regardless of their size, trust and rely on Central Desktop to manage their day-to-day business operations. Central Desktop is also proud to serve local, state and federal government agencies, healthcare institutions, financial institutions, non-profits, religious and educational organizations including schools, colleges and universities around the world.

The Central Desktop Security Pack is an optional add-on to Company Plans for companies and organizations that require deeper and more granular security features to comply to internal, corporate or 3rd party compliance codes (Corporate Governance, HIPAA, etc). The Security Pack is a prerequisite for companies and organizations that wish to integrate a Single Sign-On experience between Central Desktop and a third party application (additional configuration may be required). The Security Pack is available to all Company Plan subscribers for an additional $99 per month. There are no additional “per user” fees.
