BRANFORD, CT -- (Marketwire) -- 03/19/13 -- Westbrook Technologies, a leading developer of enterprise content management software (ECM), today announced the release of FortisBlue™ 2, a powerful software solution that gives businesses the flexibility and convenience of a cloud-based offering without the security and governance risks inherent in fully cloud-based software. Featuring across-the-board upgrades and enhancements, FortisBlue 2 is designed to meet the diverse information management needs of today's mobile, distributed enterprise.

Cloud-based software delivery models give users easy access to critical enterprise applications at any time on any device. But for many organizations, cloud computing introduces a host of concerns centered on application security, identity management and privacy as well as legal and information governance and compliance issues. FortisBlue 2 uses an innovative hybrid approach that bridges the worlds of cloud and on-premise.

"Businesses today must be able to absorb, process and use information -- regardless of location or format -- while at the same time keeping information safe and meeting governance requirements," said Einar Haukeland, president and CEO of Westbrook Technologies. "Building on our proven track record in this segment, FortisBlue 2 points the way to a better approach to managing business content in the cloud that reduces costs and improves business agility and competitiveness -- all without compromising security -- now and in the future."

Extensive enhancements, new features
In addition to its hybrid cloud delivery model, FortisBlue 2 offers an extensive set of enhancements and new features including enterprise scalability, improved workflow, robust email integration, multi-language support, extended mobile capability and enhanced security. Taken as a whole, these enhancements enable businesses to take immediate control over broken or inefficient content-centric processes, eliminate manual processes and make information easier to find and access either within a department or across the enterprise.

Proven track record
Compared to many vendors who have entered the content management industry in the last few years, Westbrook Technologies has more than two decades of experience in helping companies and government agencies do more with documents and content. This experience has now been brought forward to the cloud era with FortisBlue 2.
