Extol Updates AS2 Communication Solution

Mar 16, 2012 (Close-Up Media via COMTEX) -- Extol International, a provider of business integration software and services, announced the release of Extol Secure Exchange 5.5 (ESX), an AS2 standard-compliant data communication solution that protects the privacy and integrity of EDI and other data exchanged over the Internet.

The Company reported that the ESX v5.5 release enhances data security and adds fail-over features that improve service availability.

Extol reported that its Secure Exchange 5.5 enables e-commerce and data interchange with trading partners that use AS2-compliant communications, applying advanced encryption, authentication and non-repudiation methods to protect exchanged partner data against external tampering.

ESX 5.5 leverages several new features to ensure seamless integration, including: -Support for mutual authentication to verify both sender and receiver identities prior to data transmission -Fail-over forwarding of sessions to a standby server should the primary server become unavailable "Rapid, cross-industry adoption has made secure AS2 communication a staple of modern B2B integration," said Jim O'Leary, vice president of product management for Extol. "The expanded security and availability features in our latest ESX release greatly increase its value for customers who rely on Extol's middleware for business-to-business integration." Prior to its release, ESX 5.5 earned AS2 Interoperability (AS2-3Q11) certification from the Drummond Group, which tests AS2 communication products twice each year for standards compliance.
