Decho Corporation
EMC formed Decho Corporation in November 2008 to help people protect, manage and enrich their "digital echo," the ever-growing quantity of personal
digital information in their lives. Decho will help individuals take control of their digital echo through a set of cloud-based services that will enable easy and
full utilization, organization and enrichment of important personal information.
Decho combines the Mozy, Inc. and Pi Corporation businesses. The new company offers consumers and businesses the Mozy-branded online backup
service and expects to introduce new cloud-based services over time.
Content Management and Archiving Segment
Our content management and archiving software, which includes the EMC Documentum, EMC Captiva and EMC Document Sciences xPression
families, helps customers optimize business processes and create, manage, deliver and archive information, ranging from documents and discussions to e-
mail, Web pages, images, XML, reports, records, rich media and application data.
In 2008, EMC unveiled its next-generation EMC Documentum 6.5 enterprise content management ("ECM") platform, enabling customers to experience
Web 2.0. Documentum 6.5 is a family of ECM products that combines the user experience of Web 2.0 and the strength of the enterprise-class Documentum
platform to deliver a balance between business agility and IT control.
Additionally, EMC launched a strategic alliance with IBM and Microsoft for the creation of a new Web services interface specification, enabling greater
interoperability between ECM systems. The jointly developed Content Management Interoperability Services ("CMIS") specification uses Web services and
Web 2.0 interfaces to enable applications to interoperate with multiple ECM repositories by different vendors.
RSA Information Security Segment
RSA, The Security Division of EMC, delivers products, packaged solutions and services designed to guard the integrity and confidentiality of
information throughout its lifecycle, no matter where it moves, who accesses it or how it is used. RSA's expertise in Identity Assurance, Data Security and
Security Information and Event Management technologies enables EMC's customers to discover, classify and place appropriate controls around their data;
secure access to the data, both inside and outside the network, at all times; and monitor and enforce these measures to prove compliance with security policies
and regulations.
In 2008, RSA focused on helping customers discover and comprehend the risk to their most sensitive data, including intellectual property and personally
identifiable information, and map their security investments and associated priorities to meet critical business objectives. The division defined its Identity
Assurance strategy and associated set of core capabilities around access management, contextual authorization, strong authentication and anti-fraud
intelligence to protect against identity impersonation and inappropriate account use. RSA also launched its RSA Data Security System, comprising product
suites and services for comprehensive data protection, including loss prevention, encryption and key management. The emphasis on integrating RSA
technologies into the wider EMC portfolio continued in 2008, as did the focus on helping customers meet their multiple compliance demands in a repeatable,
framework-based and cost-efficient manner.
