WANdisco SCM Suite's Enterprise Edition Solutions for CVS, Subversion
and CVSNT
Provide Security Features that Protect Intellectual Property and
Support Ongoing Compliance
PLEASANTON, Calif. March 9, 2006 - WANdisco, the leader in real-time
multi-site development solutions, today announced the release of its
new SCM Suite Enterprise Edition security features for CVS, Subversion
and CVSNT.
In this era of offshore outsourcing it is imperative that companies are
able to protect their valuable intellectual property. In addition,
companies are also facing new regulatory requirements imposed by the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX) that are having an impact on IT organizations.
In order to respond to these challenges, IT organizations must be able
to control and track access to source code. With WANdisco's new
security features, which build upon WANdisco's unique multi-site
development solutions, organizations are now able to achieve this.
WANdisco's Enterprise Edition provides full authorization,
authentication, access control and audit capabilities that go well
beyond the security features that CVS, Subversion, or CVSNT provide on
their own. Administrators can implement and maintain the most complex
security policies across all development sites with a minimum of
effort. Single sign-on is supported by integration with LDAP and
other authentication servers. Once the security configuration is
defined it can be replicated automatically to all sites. Groups, roles
and users can be defined and fine grained access control can be
implemented down to the branch, module, source code file, or client ip
address levels, to ensure the segregation of duties that auditors look
for.
"As the source of version history truth, the SCM system is the nexus
of any traceability effort," said Carey Schwaber, Forrester Analyst.
WANdisco automates this traceability effort by providing online audit
reports that track:
· What access rights users have
· When access rights were changed and by whom
· User access history showing when source code files were accessed
by a user over a given time period, and what commands were used
· User access violations including: userid, ipAddress of system
from which access was attempted, files accessed, branches accessed,
command used, and date and time of unauthorized access attempt.

About WANdisco
Since 2001 WANdisco has set out to push the limits of what can be
achieved with distributed systems deployed on a Wide Area Network
(WAN). The result of these efforts is new technology that fundamentally
changes the way distributed nodes, or servers, interact to provide
unprecedented levels of reliability, availability and scalability (RAS)
enabling the internet to realize its full potential. WANdisco has
applied this technology to the development of its suite of multi-site
SCM solutions for CVS, CVSNT, and Subversion. For the first time a
development team can truly be spread-out across the world and work as
one unit, in real-time.
Global 2000 companies rely on WANdisco's suite of SCM solutions for
CVS,CVSNT and Subversion to enable them to distribute work based on
where their talent is located, rather than on the basis of time-zone
constraints. This results in dramatically reduced costs and
significantly improved utilization of scarce resources. For more
