today announced the availability of
Bitform Secure SDK, a software component with an API for
identification and removal of more than two dozen metadata and hidden
information elements commonly found in Word, PowerPoint(R) and Excel
files ."
Specific testing performed at the new lab includes system efficiency
testing; steady-state load and step load tests; input frequency and input
voltage variation; utility failure; battery performance; and, faults on system
inputs and outputs.

Security issues arise when document metadata contains valid
path names and network share information; when SQL query strings can
be mined from Excel files - complete with database names and stored
passwords; or when users gain a false sense of document security when
using the Office encryption feature, which doesn't necessarily encrypt
all of a file's content .

The risks of metadata and hidden information range from
professional embarrassment to sensitive information exposure to
serious security threats. The lab provides APC customers and others involved in the
design, build and specification process such as consulting engineers and
contractors with factory acceptance testing for large power systems and
multiple UPSs in parallel.

According to Bitform Founder and CEO, Joe Keslin, "The problem
with metadata and hidden information is twofold. The
architecture enables deployment across multiple platforms in
high-throughput, high-availability environments required by Bitform's
target market of OEM customers.

About Bitform

Bitform develops software solutions that leverage the company's
expertise in unstructured data.

mops omg

Bitform Technology Inc. The result is the
exposure of data that most organizations would rather not share . Examples of unintended exposure are
plentiful: Organizations look sloppy when document properties contain
outdated or incorrect corporate and author information, or when
comments meant for internal discussion are left in documents shared
with third parties or the public. Proprietary information is easily
leaked when custom properties that include employee user names and
email addresses are exposed; when contracts or legal documents with
"track change" redlines still present include the names of other
customers or business terms from a prior agreement; or when the
"Author History " can reveal the names of multiple prior authors of a
document.
