VALENCIA, Calif., Sept. 21 /PRNewswire/ -- Nexus announced today that it has become an RSA SecurWorld™Access Partner. The RSA SecurWorld program is structured to enable more channel partners to meet rapidly-growing information security market opportunities.

As an RSA SecurWorld Partner, Nexus is now certified to sell RSA SecurID® authentication solution, RSA enVision® technology and the RSA® Data Loss Prevention (DLP) Suite, with account managers and pre-sales engineers individually certified in all three technologies. Businesses with concerns about improving network security, mitigating risk and tools to help with compliance standards can now look to Nexus for complete data protection solutions featuring these leading technologies.

RSA SecurID two-factor authentication is based on something a person knows (a password or PIN) and something a person has (an authenticator)--providing a much more reliable level of user authentication than reusable passwords.

The RSA envision platform is engineered to offer an effective Security and Information Event Management (SIEM) and log management solution, capable of collecting and analyzing large amounts of data in real-time, from any event source and in computing environments of any size.

The RSA Data Loss Prevention (DLP) Suite is designed to enable organizations to discover and classify their sensitive data, educate end users and ensure data is handled appropriately, and report on risk reduction and progress towards policy objectives.

"With security threats increasing in number and sophistication, organizations want to gain protection, control, and visibility over their security systems, preventing incidents and threats that disrupt productivity, impact customer relationships, and erode profits," said Dave Elsner, Nexus Vice President of Sales and Marketing. "Incorporating RSA's technologies with our expertise in Data Protection enables us to custom-design and implement the very best end-to-end solutions to meet our customers' needs."

"RSA is pleased to recognize Nexus as an RSA SecurWorld Access Partner," said Shawn Pearson, Director North America Channel Sales at RSA, The Security Division of EMC. "The RSA SecurWorld program aids channel partners like Nexus to more competitively position themselves with their customers as experts on RSA products and services, and we hope that the sale of RSA's broad portfolio of security solutions will help them continue to grow their business."
