More than ever before, the U.S. government faces a dramatically escalating crisis of information leaks, posing significant risks to national security, international relations, and public trust. Commercial enterprises are also experiencing a similar trend with insiders attempting to sabotage the organization with leaks.
EchoMark is already used by the federal government in on-premises environments to protect highly classified information. With today’s announcement, even more government agencies — along with highly regulated industries such as financial services and global entertainment — can deploy EchoMark’s technology with the assurance that their most sensitive communications remain fully isolated and protected.
“Governments and intelligence agencies operate in environments where information security is non-negotiable,” said Troy Batterberry, co-founder and CEO, EchoMark. “We’ve developed deployment options that meet the highest thresholds of security, enabling our customers to communicate with confidence even in the most classified environments.”
EchoMark’s invisible watermarking technology works by enabling organizations to trace leaks back to their source, even if information is copied, printed, photographed, or retyped. This level of protection is unrivaled and yet essential in safeguarding the intelligence community with traceability to deter unauthorized disclosures and strengthening information assurance.
The company also announced that In-Q-Tel, Inc. (IQT), the not-for-profit strategic investor for the U.S. national security community and America’s allies, has made a strategic investment in EchoMark aimed at helping government clients source innovative solutions, in a trusted and confidential way.
“Information security has profound national security implications. EchoMark’s forensics-based solution represents a breakthrough in how we will protect sensitive information while still ensuring it can be seamlessly shared with those who need to know,” said Katie Gray, Senior Partner, IQT. “We seek out and support transformative technologies that can address pressing national security challenges and EchoMark fits squarely within that mission. Through this partnership, we will bring practical solutions to those dealing with national security to enhance mission effectiveness and security operations.”
EchoMark’s AI-driven watermarking technology is used by a rapidly growing number of commercial enterprises, government organizations, and nonprofits to restore organizational privacy and safeguard sensitive communications.
