Bangalore: First Indian Corporation, a member of The First American Corporation (NYSE: FAF) gropup, providing specialised services in business process outsourcing, production and application development for the real estate information, credit and title insurance industries, has announced compliance with Cybertrust Inc's TruSecure Perimeter Certification.

This makes First Indian Corporation, which has two centres — one each in Bangalore and Hyderabad that meet the information requirements of its parent companies' client base, one of the few companies in India to achieve the TruSecure Perimeter Certification.

The $6.72-billion (2004 revenues) parent, First American Corporation — which started in 1899 — is now a Fortune 500-company and America's largest data provider, supplying businesses and consumers with information resources about major economic events in people's lives, such as getting a job, renting an apartment, buying a car, house, boat or aircraft, securing a mortgage, opening or buying a business, and planning for retirement. Its group companies command leading market-share positions in their respective industries in title insurance and services, specialty insurance, trust and other services, mortgage information, property information, credit information and screening information.

The TruSecure Perimeter service by Cybertrust Inc is recognised world-wide as an integrated security program that addresses the most significant sources of risk across all the dimensions of an organisation. The program provides security assurance in six major areas of risk — electronic threats and vulnerabilities, malicious code, privacy, physical security and human factors.

According to Anoop Hegde, country manager, First Indian Corporation: "Information security takes on a much greater significance as Indian companies take on higher end work often involving proprietary and sensitive data," As the risk of external threats proliferates, optimal information security management has become a paramount concern for our business, Cybertrust's TruSecure Perimeter Certification confirms that we are following essential practices to maintain appropriate levels of information security.

Cybertrust is a leading managed-security services provider (MSSP). Its security analysts work with network administrators over a period of time to create a customised program that meets companies' business and information security needs. A secure, web-based dashboard application delivers superior security management capabilities. Real-time updates to Cybertrust's essential security practices and alerts, accessible through the dashboard, enable organisations to manage more effectively security in a constantly changing environment.

The Cybertrust dashboard determines the 'right level' of security controls by identifying the relationships between networks, devices, applications, people and physical locations. Additionally, customers are notified about new vulnerabilities through Cybertrust's alert service.

Cybertrust is a global provider of information security, providing a unique mix of processes, products, and people to enable enterprises and government agencies to secure and manage their IT infrastructure. It was the first company to comprehensively address the entire security lifecycle by providing offerings for each of the four critical security domains of identity, threat, vulnerability, and compliance management.
