Product Name: KOMpliance Secure Storage
 
The KOMpliance family of Secure Storage Solutions from KOM Networks redefines how enterprises deploy and protect their valuable digital assets instantly, automatically, and without exacting performance penalties for users or existing applications.

KOMpliance can be deployed as a Secure Storage Area Network (SAN) Gateway in front of any iSCSI or FC SAN backend to leverage existing storage investments or as a Secure Storage Server with SAS/SATA RAID storage arrays.

KOMpliance employs patented Hard Disk WORM technology and encryption to meet the most stringent mandates for tamperproof data protection, data authentication and data security in any operating environment using any combination of HDD and SSD iSCSI SAN attached storage.

Its all-inclusive feature set streamlines acquisition, delivers rapid deployment, easy storage management, comprehensive data security, flexible configurations, enterprise-class performance and reliability, and seamless pay-as-you grow expansion.

As providers of data protection, we recognize that it is your data. Our only role is to protect it and only for as long as you want to keep it. Based on more than 4 decades of experience meeting our customers’ data protection needs, we designed KOMpliance to ensure that there is No Vendor Lock Down. Our customers can always move their data elsewhere leveraging KOMpliance’s standard file server interface. This basic capability provides a natural environment for storing and protecting data without the complication of data migrations, application upgrades, retooling or retraining. KOMpliance simply offers a Zero Learning Curve environment. This makes KOMpliance a more cost-efficient regulatory compliant storage solution than proprietary offerings from NetApp, EMC and Hitachi.

Everything you need to know to use KOMpliance with any application in any environment to protect and secure files is knowledge and expertise you already have. This lowers the total cost of ownership (TCO) with an all-inclusive turnkey solution that leverages any storage infrastructure.

KOMpliance Storage Servers
With KOMpliance Storage Server, KOM Networks combines its patented secure WORM hard disk storage technology with familiar standard enterprise-class storage servers on a Windows platform to provide a solution that seamlessly integrates with existing infrastructure and business applications, simplifies the security and protection of digital assets, and keeps acquisition costs at a minimum.

A business grade NAS (Network Attached Storage server) running Windows Storage Server 2008 R2 and the KOMworx™ storage management software suite, KOMpliance provides the kind of bulletproof protection, comprehensive compliance, and intuitive policy based storage management interface that small organizations and branch offices need.

This turnkey solution includes RAID 5 storage, either internal or external, is available in base capacities starting at 1TB, and can be set up on your network in as little as 30 minutes. Additional storage capacity can easily be added as needed to accommodate increasing data and application storage needs. As such, it is ideal for SMBs and Enterprises that do not have excess SAN storage capacity but need to add secure, regulatory compliant network storage capacity. Buy only what you need today and easily expand as you grow.

KOMpliance helps businesses save time and money by eliminating the need to manage separate complex and proprietary storage silos. Most businesses have to cope with ongoing budgetary constraints that impact their ability to deploy secure storage solutions and impede compliance. Smaller businesses with limited financial and technical resources can benefit immediately deploying KOMpliance, a Windows NAS file server, that simply works with their existing applications and information systems framework.

KOMpliance SAN Gateway
For customers who already own a SAN, adding a KOMpliance Gateway lets you leverage its full benefits, flexibility and capabilities and adhere to strict compliance and data retention regulations and rules with the security of WORM tamperproof storage volumes. KOMpliance makes it easy to protect your data on the storage you already own. Whether you need a simple secure archive or complex retention, KOMpliance makes it possible with a few clicks in a familiar Windows setting!

Simply deploy KOMpliance alongside any iSCSI SAN array and allocate a LUN to create a secure WORM capable volume that is readily accessible on the network as a standard NAS file server share. Use the SAN storage resources that you are already familiar with and trust to create secure, encrypted, tamperproof volumes protecting valuable digital assets and files to meet your business, industry and regulatory requirements.

KOMpliance Rich Features and Capabilities
KOMpliance was designed to address the widest range of compliance regulations and requirements with minimal effort and impact, and includes:

• File retention enforcement
• Tamperproof WORM data security and protection with flexible file level policies
• Enhanced security with built-in data encryption and secure data shredding

Each KOMpliance volume is Encrypted for data privacy to meet all data-at-rest security requirements and protect data from unauthorized access. Whether your requirements are driven by SEC, HIPAA, PIPEDA, PCI or NIST; KOMpliance ensures you meet them. Managing risks, limiting liability and meeting regulations is easy with KOMpliance.

The KOMpliance Windows NAS file server interface delivers a high-performance, reliable and affordable storage platform that creates secure WORM archive storage volumes on any Hard Disk Drive (HDD) or Solid State Drive (SSD) Storage arrays regardless of whether they are direct or SAN attached.

KOMpliance’s Management Console uses an intuitive look-and-feel interface that is immediately familiar to Windows Administrators. It leverages the Windows Eco-System with full out-of-the-box pre-configuration for all file sharing standards and operations. Using the wide range of customizable options, administrators can easily create and implement File Lifecycle Management policies that meet all applicable compliance requirements, and apply them to specific classes of files and even individual files. These intelligent, rules-based policies can also be easily modified whenever needed – with the exception of course that retention periods can never be shortened.

Data Privacy is assured with a number of features including AES-256 encryption and wide range of folder and volume management policies that control every aspect of every operation. Every file retained has an SHA-256 digital signature for Data Authentication. Data Security is enforced with standard compliant data shredding that is performed automatically as part of every delete operation - overwriting the contents and shredding sensitive data.

Our regulatory compliant retention and secure storage management software enhances data security for a wide range of enterprise applications such as Content and Document Management Systems, E-mail Archiving, Financial Applications, SharePoint and SAP, as well as Electronic Health Records (EHR) and Medical applications including RIS/PACs, EKG and Fetal Monitoring Systems. Our patented technologies can provide permanent file retention and protection on any storage device (RAID, SAN, iSCSI, Optical and Tape).

Testimonial:

“KOMpliance offered a great combination of technology, ease of use, and cost which were very important to us…” Gary Hanold, Director of Information Technology, Angel Medical Center

“KOMpliance was fast and painless. We simply copied the data and then changed IP addresses and everything was up and running in minutes. The system ran faster and the images were accessible at a faster rate than the old infrastructure. The exceptional support we received to overcome an issue with the retention settings and compatibility with the Sectra software was quick and first-rate and a deciding factor in our plans for storage of other healthcare applications. ” Jim Moran, Network Administrator/HIPAA security officer

“KOMpliance provides us with functionality that wasn’t available before. With its automated policy-based retention, we no longer have to worry about meeting different regulatory requirements for different types of studies or patients. KOMpliance automatically stores and preserves the images for as long as required and then automatically erases the archived image when regulatory compliance is met or retention period is reached, freeing up much needed storage space.” Lori Smith, Director of Radiology

“Experian deployed KOMpliance at about half the cost of HCAP. It has integrated better into the Windows environment, partly because of the Windows Storage Server software and native integration into Active Directory but also because KOM's IP at the kernel layer in the appliance is optimized for different kinds of I/O.” Gary Everekyan, VPInformation Security, Experian

“Leveraging KOMpliance in conjunction with our iSCSI SAN, we were able to maintain HIPAA compliance, create a functional DR plan, and also meet our financial goals. The total cost, including 3 year 24x7 support, when combined with the total cost savings using our existing SAN storage, saves us approximately $230,000 over a three year period by switching from EMC Centera to a KOMpliance SAN Gateway solution.” Kevin Foster, York Hospital.

“We are thrilled with the professional support and cooperation we have received from KOM Networks. KOMpliance has helped us to fulfill our compliance requirements and limit our liability. They provided a simple solution for a complex requirement. Knowing our data is secure and our technology is sustainable allows us to control our future costs and maximize our return on investment.” Simon Edwards, NMB Insurance Brokers

“Our partnership with KOM Networks will give customers a way to easily meet compliance requirements with fixed content WORM volumes on Enhance iSCSI and FC SAN arrays. It offers customers a faster, less capital intensive route to building a long-term storage solution for managing, securing and protecting archive content." Daniel Tai, CEO, Enhance Technology

“We are excited to add KOMpliance integration. This provides our customers with a good option for securing and protecting their data. It requires no application changes and can be implemented immediately into the existing IT environment. Nothing changes for the user or administrator and the policies managed by OnBase are automatic and transparent.” Bill Filion, VP of Product Development, Hyland Software.

“Combining our industry-leading Enterprise Vault email and content archiving software with KOMpliance creates a highly scalable and cost effective solution for medium size and enterprise customers. Customers will benefit from the seamless integration of these two solutions that deliver complete protection for long term storage and quick eDiscovery of information." Simon Jelley, Sr. Director of Product Management, Symantec Enterprise Vault.

“KOM’s approach to develop, build and deliver an all purpose archive solution has set the standards for other vendors that have recently followed suit.” Deni Connor, Storage Strategies NOW.
