With the continued rise in bigger and broader federated search deployments, security is only becoming more important, and as a result we’re doing more in terms of educating enterprises on the topic.  Our latest effort is a technical white paper titled, “The Principles of Security Management in the Context of Secure Search.”  While this paper won’t serve as a “how-to” manual on the subject of secure search, it does provide a suitable framework for better understanding the topic and ensuring your security managers are comfortable with the requirements.

Stay tuned for our upcoming whitepaper that will tell you everything you need to know about security in a federated search environment. We’ll do our best to have it out by the end of January!
