Just a couple of months ago, Amazon rolled out Server Side Encryption (SSE) on its online storage web service, S3. Amazon S3 Server Side Encryption allows you to encrypt files you upload to S3. Companies who are looking for better protection for data at rest and those who need to comply with regulations like HIPAA or data breach notification laws may find this bit of information very useful.

All you need is a regular computer, a Java enabled web browser, and of course an Internet connection.

For some entities in the health care industry, file transfer activities are no longer as simple as before. Measures have to be taken to make sure violations aren't made against HIPAA. FTP services, perhaps the most widely used services for transferring large files over the Internet, now require enhancements to ensure that data considered as electronic protected health information (ePHI) are protected throughout an FTP transfer.

Getting validation for an email address using JSCAPE's Secure iNet Factory library is a lot easier than getting personal validation (although let me say right now, dear Reader, that I think you're smart to learn more about the EmailInspector class, and you're all right with me!). The EmailInspector class has four levels of validation and you can give a submitted email address only as much scrutiny as it needs. In each case, the EmailInspector returns true if the address passes validation, and throws an exception if it does not.

Email messages are made of required parts, such as the bunch-of-exclamation-marks part ["HOO!!!!!!!"], the emoticon part [;-)], and the abbreviations part [ROTFL]. All emails are required to contain these parts (at least, all the emails I get have them), as well as other parts such as the Subject, the From, the To and the Body. The JSCAPE Secure iNet Factory library lets you use Post Office Protocol 3 (POP3) to write a client program that will retrieve your email and look at the parts. (That is, the parts in the second list!!!!!!! LMAO :-)).

Using JSCAPE's Secure iNet Factory library, it's not hard to retrieve your email easily and with complete security from GMail, Hotmail or other servers that require APOP authentication, and we'll show you how in this article. On the other hand, how does your hand-addressed Christmas card get all the way across America to your Aunt Petunia's house, traveling over purple mountain majesties and across fruited plains, carried by trains and airplanes and, for Pete's sake, by a friendly mail person who walks it down the street? This process is a complete mystery and some scientist should investigate it!

So let's say you have developed a marvelous herbal supplement that will help men grow larger ears, and you need to share this discovery with the world (or at least, that part of the world that is willing to send you $12.95 for your special mix of grass clippings from your backyard). You can use SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) to route your message through the Internet, and the Secure iNet Factory library to help you write a Java program to do this.

In addition to the information below, we're offering a free trial when you contact your account manager. SCP is another old SSH (Secure Shell) file-transfer protocol — it can be traced back to the rcp command that was added to BSD Unix in 1982, which makes it the same age as ET The Extraterrestrial. It may have been the protocol ET used to communicate with his mothership. If he had had JSCAPE's Secure FTP Factory library, things might have gone more easily.

Haven't yet found any compelling reason to deploy data security solutions like managed file transfer (MFT) and data loss prevention (DLP)? Looks like the European Union is about to give you one. If provisions in the leaked draft of the regulation for the new European Data Protection Directive get carried over into the final form of the law, EU companies as well as global companies who operate in EU-member states will have to improve IT security in order to comply with the regulation or risk incurring heavy penalties.
