Objective passes defence test, again

Objective passes defence test, again

August 2nd, 2006: Objective Corporation's flagship content management product, Objective 7 had recently been re-tested and certified by the US Department of Defence (DOD) against the military records management specification, US DOD 5015.2-STD.

The specification defines exhaustive requirements based on operational, regulatory and legal needs that must be met by Records Management Application (RMA) software used by the DOD and related agencies.

Objective is one of the few vendors currently certified in both Chapter 2 (Mandatory Requirements) and Chapter 4 (Management of Classified Records) for records management. Classification in Chapter 4 involved meeting stringent security requirements to support classified records.

"Organisations globally continue to face increasingly strict security compliance requirements for records management," said Tony Walls, CEO Asia Pacific.

Where compliance with DOD 5015.2 is mandatory for RMAs in US Defence organisations, adoption of the standard has increased by government and private sector organisations world-wide.

"Achieving this certification again, illustrates our commitment to customers who operate in highly secure environments within justice, defence and intelligence agencies," said Mr Walls. "This is the third time Objective has achieved DOD 5015.2 certification. The standard’s requirements have evolved since Objective’s initial certification in 2000," he added.
