NICE Engage Platform Now Validated for Government Implementation

RA'ANANA, Israel, June 2, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --

NICE Systems (NASDAQ: NICE) today announced that the NICE Engage Platform has been formally FIPS (Federal Information Processing Standard) validated, making the global multi-channel recording and analytics tool available to all branches of the US federal government.

With FIPS 140-2 validation, the NICE Engage Platform becomes part of a very select group of products that all American federal institutions bound by the FIPS standard can use. This recognition of NICE's adherence to the strictest compliance standards opens the door for further expansion into the government sector.

Miki Migdal, President, NICE Enterprise Product Group: 

"With this validation, we are bringing multi-channel recording to government institutions, helping them create perfect experiences while serving the public. This opens up a whole new market for the NICE Engage Platform, which will enable government agencies to enhance regulatory compliance and support real-time engagement in their contact center operations."

As with previous releases of the NICE Engage Platform, multichannel recording (including voice, video, screen, chat, email and SMS), archiving and streaming are provided in a single solution that is:

• Highly flexible and cost efficient
• Scalable to support 5,000 channels per interaction recorder
• A real-time platform for contact centers, IT teams and risk management departments
• Significantly faster at resolving customer complaints than existing options
• A compliance risk mitigator that protects both the customer and the organization

The platform also supports a vast number of applications and processes, allowing organizations to simultaneously and instantly analyze all incoming data. More agents are thus empowered to take action during the customer engagement, while stakeholders throughout the institution have access to Engage-based insights to make timely, better-informed decisions, and drive action that improves service processes.

The NICE Engage Platform was designed and developed in alignment with the most stringent security standards, such as PCI-DSS 3.0 and FIPS 140-2, which facilitated the recent successful FIPS validation in the United States. This compliance standard includes operations on a Microsoft environment configured to comply with the FIPS standards for encryption, hashing and signing.

NICE will demonstrate its multi-channel recording solutions at Interactions 2015, taking place this week in San Antonio, Texas. For more information on the conference, visit http://www.nice.com/interactions, or follow the event on Twitter @N_Interactions.
