TEAMSTUDIO® AUDIT SERVICES BRINGS ASSET CONTROL TO LOTUS NOTES APPLICATIONS TO INCREASE DATA INTEGRITY

Providing fast and comprehensive audit results, Teamstudio Asset Audit and Teamstudio Security Audit helps IT organizations bring necessary order and organization to Lotus Notes software assets

BEVERLY, Massachusetts (October 26, 2005) – Teamstudio®, the global leader in developing software integrity solutions for Lotus Notes development organizations, introduces Teamstudio Audit Services. This professional services asset and security audit uses Teamstudio technology to provide insights and recommendations to increase security and data integrity across an organization’s Lotus Notes software assets.

“With a lack of application control and well-understood security procedures, many Lotus Notes environments have become overgrown and unmanageable, and as a result, inefficient and open to abuse,” said Nigel Cheshire, CEO of Teamstudio. “Organizations need to know what applications are being used, what resources are connected to their assets, and whether their ‘mission-critical’ applications are secure and sufficiently resourced.”
