WORLDSYNC, INC. SHIPS fmDataGuard 1.1
- Now With Support to Log Viewed Data, fmDataGuard Provides Audit Technology to
Meet Regulatory Compliance, Instant Data Rollback and Quick Recovery from Crash
or Corruption -
BERKELEY, Calif., Nov. 14, 2007 - WorldSync, Inc. today released fmDataGuard
1.1, with new support for logging Viewed data, and new SQL query and execution
capabilities.
fmDataGuard 1.1 provides those solutions built with FileMaker Pro software with
the technological basis for regulatory audit trail compliance, logs all data
changes, and allows for instant data rollback or quick recovery from a crash or
corruption. The new View option for data logging gives the developer another
choice for control over which, and how, events are logged.
Beyond new support for logging Viewed data, fmDataGuard also introduces a new
SQL Execute capability. Developers can now send dynamic SQL queries and execute
functions directly to FileMaker, enabling them to include data modifications to
remote tables, constantly update data in layouts, perform data updates without
requiring special relationships, or construct advanced relationships including
"or" criteria.
fmDataGuard 1.1 is also a maintenance release with minor, optional function
enhancements and fixes to reported issues. The fmDataGuard 1.1 update is
available free of charge to all registered fmDataGuard customers from the
WorldSync, Inc. web site at: Download Update
"We recently learned HIPAA mandates can be interpreted to require logging when a
record is even viewed, irrespective of modification, printing or some other
action," explained Jason Erickson, president and CEO of WorldSync, Inc. "So, we
added the logging capability for viewed data straight away. With this addition,
we're more confident that fmDataGuard practically meets the technological audit
trail regulatory requirements on its own, while simultaneously making it easier
to recover from a crash or from errors caused by users."
"HIPAA encompases a lot of requirements and fmDataGuard solves the audit trail
requirements of HIPAA really well," explained Rich Carlton, senior engineer and
CEO, R.C. Consulting, Inc. "fmDataGuard addresses audit trail issues in a smooth
and seamless way, and in a fairly automatic fashion for the developer. That
leaves the developer open to focus on the remaining HIPAA compliance
requirements related to security, reporting, backup strategies, and the like.
fmDataGuard easily cuts the time required to address HIPAA in half."
fmDataGuard provides complete audit trail capture, with no scripting, layout
modifications, or custom development required. fmDataGuard can capture all Add,
View, Change and Delete actions to a separate table, keeping a field-level
change history. The resultant fmDataGuard log meets the audit log requirements
for regulatory mandates such as Sarbanes-Oxley, HIPAA, Gramm-Leach-Bliley, and
European Union Privacy (Basel II) and Payment Card Industry Data Security
Standards (PCI DSS).
In addition, fmDataGuard makes it easy to recover from a crash or corruption,
and to revert undesired data modifications. fmDataGuard uses the logged changes
to empower administrators to roll back data in a single button click. Similarly,
administrators can roll forward using log data to reconcile the last known good
backup with the current state of the database since that backup, hence updating
the backup, all in one button click. �If needed, data recovery is provided for
both the field-level and the record-level modifications. fmDataGuard also
supports logging of custom events, such as user login and logout, report
generation and much more. Setup of fmDataGuard is an easy three-step process,
with an optional fourth step to capture Viewed records.
