-Sean Kelley CEO, Collaboration Studios.com, LLC.

The Great WaveOrganizations conducting business in the tumultuous environment of the internet have much in common with the boats fighting to stay afloat in Hokusai's famous print "The Great Wave". Both are buffeted by forces largely beyond their control and both will need the guidance of an experienced navigator to reach their destination safely.

Protecting sensitive business information and ensuring client confidentiality has become a central concern for organizations providing internet-based services to their internal users and clients. Responsible corporations need to be sure they meet all of their legal and professional responsibilities, but new laws, rapidly changing manditory regulatory requirements, and sophisticated attacks by cyber-criminals make this a challenging and expensive task.

Most companies do not have the in-house resources or specialized technical expertise necessary to sufficiently protect the corporate and client information they need to store on the web. If this information is compromised, the costs in fines, compensation, legal fees, data recovery costs and loss of corporate reputation will be substantial.

Collaboration Studios offers a regulatory-compliant data processsing environment to companies needing to give their internal users and external clients the ability to share and communicate information in a secure and flexible manner. CS systems were designed and developed to meet stringent standards for data protection and user confidentiality. Our procedures and operating environment has been tested by security organizations and approved by regulatory agencies.

CS is certified PCI Compliant and fully meets the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS). PCI-approved security scans are run daily by our PCI-Approved Scanning Vendor McAfee (McAfee Secure™). The core CS system is certified as IRS e-file-compliant. The datacenter running our servers has been audited by AICPA (American Institute for Certified Public Accountants) and certified SAS70-compliant. Collaboration Studios is an accredited member of the Better Business Bureau and supports their policies and recommendations.

Collaboration Studios has established a strong presence within the financial services industry. This is not surprising considering the stringent legal requirements that apply to these types of organizations. Our systems however, can be used effectively by any group needing to improve security, incease efficiency and reduce costs. Accountants, attorneys, engineers and other professionals rely on CS software on a daily basis to meet their goals.

Our core CS product is a web-based, database driven, secure communications system that enables users to store, organize and share sensitive business and personal information in a truly collaborative environment.

CS provides a complete set of integrated functions that permit workgroup members to effectively communicate ideas, track work and exchange information on a real-time basis from their home or office anywhere in the world. CS services can be used to fulfill new business requirements, or provide secure, controlled access to existing applications. Our software runs within a dedicated hardware environment optimized for performance and constantly monitored for reliability. Our service can be purchased either on subscription or licensed basis.

Integrated within CS is a powerful Workflow Management and Tracking System (CS-WTS™). Built on “CS-Smart Folder™” technology, our Workflow Management and Tracking System allows jobs to be submitted, assigned, tracked and controlled through each stage of a user-defined workflow process. CS-WTS™ can be set up to run through job steps automatically, using CS-Smart Folder “triggers,” or manually, under the control of a workflow administrator. Jobs can be submitted from online forms, email requests, smart folder triggers, or through telephone requests using our unique interactive voice response system (CS-IVR™). A series of online reports track the status of each job as it progresses through the workflow queues.

We offer a number of Partner Programs to organizations and individuals wishing to distribute our systems.
