Stellent, Inc.’s (Nasdaq: STEL) Content Components group, the industry’s leading provider of component technologies used to access, transform and control unstructured data, announced today the release of an enhanced version of Stellent Outside In Technology, including the introduction of the Outside In Clean Content software development kit (SDK).
The upgraded product suite will help original equipment manufacturer (OEM) customers develop more robust search programs and applications critical for finding information in documents and other files as part of electronic discovery, compliance and risk management initiatives.
Specifically, the new version of Outside In Technology allows software developers to build applications on the latest 64-bit operating systems, and enhances their ability to access and manipulate complex file formats and structures commonly searched during the litigation and forensics process. These formats include Microsoft Outlook PST files, embedded files and images, spreadsheet row and column content, and field content in PDF forms.
The Outside In Technology suite also now includes the Stellent Clean Content SDK, which addresses the rising challenge of hidden data within documents that can create security and policy risks. This hidden information includes metadata, tracked changes and comments, revision and author history, fast-save data, and database connection details, among many other elements. The Clean Content SDK identifies and cleanses or strips files of sensitive, confidential or proprietary metadata and hidden information that may pose risks to organizations if exposed. Stellent’s Clean Content SDK is derived from Bitform’s Secure and Extract SDKs, which Stellent obtained through its acquisition of Bitform in August 2006.
"The latest version of Outside In Technology demonstrates our commitment to and leadership in helping OEM customers leverage powerful and scalable 64-bit operating systems and obtain information from the latest and most sophisticated file types,” said Bob Mahoney, vice president of sales and marketing for Stellent’s Content Components group. "Similarly, we are pleased to introduce and put our resources behind the cutting-edge, high-value Clean Content SDK, a new technology that will significantly enhance a software partner’s ability to create applications that can better mitigate risk by ‘scrubbing’ documents of undesirable content.”
