Award-Winning Stellent Systems Again Certified for U.S. DoD 5015 -- STD Chapters 2 and 4

Stellent, Inc. (Nasdaq: STEL), a global provider of content management solutions, announced today Stellentâ Universal Content Management’sä Content Server and Stellent Universal Records Managementä received U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) 5015 - STD Chapters 2 and 4 recertification for the management of records. The recertifications verify Stellent’s systems — including Stellent’s new Universal Records Management server — comply with the U.S. DoD 5015 - STD Chapters 2 and 4, which are essential for any federal government organization managing records or classified documents.
"Records management increasingly is a critical component of successful governance, risk and compliance initiatives — whether these efforts are within a corporation or government agency,” said Dan Ryan, chief operating officer for Stellent. "We are pleased to obtain DoD 5015 recertification for our records management solutions as it further confirms for customers their information is properly and securely managed. Additionally, the recertifications enable us to continue to bring valuable technologies to the federal sector, addressing some of the most daunting content management challenges for these agencies.”
U.S. DoD 5015 - STD Chapter 2 is the de facto records management standard in North America. It defines the basic requirements that must be met by records management applications acquired by the Department of Defense and its components based on operational, legislative and legal needs. U.S. DoD 5015 - STD Chapter 4 verifies a system’s ability to control the creation, declaration, classification, retention and destruction of classified electronic and non-electronic records, including scanned documents.
To achieve U.S. DoD 5015 - STD Chapter 4 recertification, Stellent demonstrated its records management technologies could define and manage classification guides and rules for security clearance levels, and provide security features - such as access control lists and classification schemes - that allow records managers to control document access. In addition, Stellent demonstrated its robust, extensible metadata model can simplify the process of declaring and searching for records, and its reporting and auditing features can track all user interactions in the system.
The award-winning Stellent Universal Records Management — which was released in March 2006 — allows organizations to centralize, streamline and unify records management and retention management; mitigate legal risks and facilitate compliance; and reduce information technology (IT) costs and content clutter. It is the first software platform that empowers organizations to apply records and retention policies, as well as legal discovery and holds, to all relevant content, not just records, across the enterprise. The platform defines, manages and executes these records and retention management policies for all enterprise content from a single server.
In addition, Stellent Universal Records Management uses an agent architecture to allow companies to apply records and retention schedules and litigation holds to content located in nearly any repository or application. The key benefit of this in-place functionality is rules are directly applied to content where it resides, eliminating the need to move content to a central location for records and retention management. The first Universal Records Management agents Stellent and its partners will release are for Symantec Enterprise Vault and Microsoft SharePoint Server, as well as Windows, Unix and Linux file servers. Customers also can build agents for their own custom applications.
These DoD certifications will enable Stellent to further capitalize on the increasing demand for content management and records management solutions within the federal government sector. Many leading federal agencies — from the U.S. Department of Justice, U.S. Air Force Medical Center and U.S. Department of Commerce, to Los Alamos National Laboratory, and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services — already use Stellent technology to improve their information-sharing processes or support compliance activities. In addition, Stellent has heavily invested in its products to ensure they meet the security requirements, certifications and standards required by federal entities, including the Navy Marine Corps Intranet (NMCI), Department of Defense Information Technology Security Certification and Accreditation Process (DITSCAP) and Americans with Disabilities Act Section 508. 25.09.2006, Stellent GmbH
