Secure Messaging and Collaboration with Titus International

At the SharePoint conference a few weeks ago, we announced a new training offering called "Secure Messaging and Collaboration" from our sister company, Titus International. Founded in 1994, Titus International is a professional services and training organization, focused on delivering security, information protection, policy management, and secure directory infrastructure solutions to public and private enterprises globally. Titus Labs was actually spun out of Titus International about 5 years ago, after our data classification products began to really take off in the market.

The new training course from Titus International addresses the deployment of Microsoft Active Directory Rights Management Services (AD RMS) SP2, Exchange 2010, SharePoint, and products in the ForeFront suite for the protection of digital information and secure collaboration. Here are just a few of the reasons why Titus International is particularly well-suited to deliver this training:

• Titus International has over 1 Million seats of RMS experience and has led the architecture and deployment of the two largest RMS deployments in the world.
• As members of the Microsoft Technology Adoption Program (TAP), Titus has worked closely with Microsoft on the Exchange 2010 release, including deployment of Exchange 2010 in our own production email system.
• Our experience in developing SharePoint solutions enables us to provide insight into SharePoint business requirements and security risks.
