Drummond Group Certifies 17 AS2 Secure Messaging Products


Austin, TX (PRWEB) November 28, 2012

Drummond Group Inc., the trusted leader in interoperability software testing, today announced the completion of its AS2-3Q12 automated interoperability test event in which 17 products are now Drummond Certified. Twelve international companies participated, including Axway, CLEO, Dell Boomi, DiCentral Corporation, EXTOL International Inc., GXS, Hewlett-Packard Company, IBM, Liaison Technologies, /n software, SEEBURGER AG and TIBCO Software Inc.

Introduced in AS2-1Q12, the SHA-2 (Secure Hashing Algorithm) Optional Test Profile now has two additional products supporting it, which brings the total to seven products. In addition, AS2-Restart for VLM and AS2 Reliability had an additional two products adding support for this important profile bringing the total to six products.

As SHA-2 continues to gain support in the industry, Drummond Group expects that more AS2 products will be adding SHA-2 support in response. We see SHA-2 complementing SHA-1 which has been the default since the inception of AS2. In addition, there is a growing need for transferring messages with very large payloads (VLM) in AS2 and the AS2 Restart functionality makes these exchanges more efficient when network errors occur. The message can be resent from the last point of failure eliminating the need to resend the entire message again.

Trading partners who utilize AS2 standard-based software applications offer secure, reliable services that enhance business relationships across multiple industries, says Rik Drummond, CEO of Drummond Group. Collaborating with competitors in a neutral setting such as the Drummond Certified program allows these global companies a phenomenal opportunity to deliver the latest interoperable software applications which will better serve their customers in the long run.
