WATERLOO, Ontario, Jan. 29, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- OpenText™ (NASDAQ: OTEX, TSX: OTC), a global leader in Enterprise Information Management (EIM), today announced the release of Brava!^TM Enterprise 7.2* for IBM Content Navigator. The new version includes role-based redaction to offer organizations the ability to assign different views of the same document to users based on their roles.

With role-based redaction, companies can set viewing controls for each member of the team based on their individual needs. The organization creates and implements a simple script that defines the access level for individual roles. The redaction then occurs "on the fly" when a user opens the document, eliminating the need to store multiple versions of documents for the various roles.

"Information is our most important asset in the Digital-First World and protecting personally identifiable information about employees and customers is essential," said Muhi Majzoub, senior vice president of engineering, OpenText. "Developed specifically for IBM Content Navigator, role-based redaction helps organizations address their concerns about information security and data privacy which have become paramount to the ongoing success of every organization. Following so quickly on our recent acquisition of IGC, this new version represents the first example of our commitment to ensuring the success of all IGC customers and partners."

Using an intuitive, browser-based interface, Brava! Enterprise collaboration software makes it easy to view, annotate, redact and transform virtually any type of file, including PDFs, Microsoft® Office documents, CAD drawings, image files and video clips. Its customizability, scalability and easy-to-use interface make large deployments and rapid adoption a reality in any business environment.
