IntraLinks Enhances Secure Access to Critical Information with Risk-Based Authentication Solution from RSA, the Security Division of EMC

NEW YORK, August 20, 2009 — IntraLinks®, the leading provider of critical information exchange solutions, today announced it is increasing secure access to its platform with RSA® Adaptive Authentication from RSA, The Security Division of EMC. (NYSE:EMC). IntraLinks customers will continue to use their convenient single sign-on to access information and files while immediately receiving enhanced authentication security.

Risk-based authentication is engineered to ensure that the security of sensitive information cannot be compromised through the simple theft of a username and password. With RSA Adaptive Authentication provided via software-as-a-service (SaaS), IntraLinks will provide its customers with enhanced user validation by assigning a unique risk score to each user’s activity. When high-risk policies are triggered, users can be prompted for additional credentials such as those gained through challenge and response questions.

“As more and more data is shared outside the firewall, IT teams are being tasked with creating a higher level of security for critical information. For more than a decade, IntraLinks has provided its users with the most advanced security features and functionality. Leveraging RSA Adaptive Authentication will provide IntraLinks users with industry-leading, risk-based authentication technology,” said John Landy, CTO of IntraLinks.

“We are pleased to expand our successful relationship with IntraLinks to provide its customers with even more secure and convenient access to their data,” said Tom Corn, Vice President of Product Marketing at RSA, The Security Division of EMC. “The software-as-a-service deployment of RSA Adaptive Authentication is a logical step forward in the evolution of IntraLinks’ security infrastructure that continues to meet its evolving organizational and customer needs.”
