An internal audit at Swisscom, the leading Swiss telecommunications enterprise, showed that the company did not effectively safeguard sensitive information and documents from unauthorized use. That risk was not acceptable to Swisscom. The company charged a subsidiary, Swisscom IT Services, with designing and implementing a rights-protection strategy. After evaluating several possible solutions, Swisscom deployed Microsoft Windows Rights Management Services (RMS) for Windows Server 2003 as its rights-protection solution because of its ease-of-use, seamless integration into the corporate network and the Microsoft Office System software environment, and excellent cost-efficiency. Today, the solution is available to all 17,800 Swisscom employees. With a single mouse click, document authors can safeguard files from unauthorized access and minimize the risk to sensitive information.
