GLBA Compliance

Enforce GLBA Information Security Plan

The Financial Modernization Act, also known as the "Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act" (GLBA), was signed into law in 1999 and includes provisions to protect consumers' personal financial information held by financial institutions which include not only banks, securities firms, and insurance companies, but also companies providing many other types of financial products and services to consumers.

IT departments in financial organizations are responsible for the maintenance and security of the information of their customer base which can be hosted on a large network of PC's in many locations. In addition, GLBA encourages organizations covered by the GLBA to implement safeguard rules that require financial institutions to develop a written information security plan that describes how the company is prepared for, and plans to continue to protect clients' non-public personal information.

From Our Customers

"Proxy allows me to connect with my users and solve their problems immediately, instead of travelling to their location which eats up valuable time. It also lets me provide training remotely for new and existing customers. I am able to perform maintenance afterhours without user interaction at all our remote locations. I am satisfied enough so that I have recommended the product to several other companies which are now Proxy users."

"Watson Realty Corp has offices located throughout North and Central Florida and South Georgia with over 1100 workstations and 1600 agents. With Proxy Pro, we can give immediate software and hardware support. Proxy Pro has proven to be a essential tool and our investment has been returned several times over by reducing the amount of time that I have to send technicians onsite."

"The new remote management software tools in PROXY Pro are very convenient to use. It is very useful to be able to make repairs on-the-spot, without having to make any security exceptions or asking the user to log-off."
