Trubiquity Solution Certified for OFTP2 Compliance by Odette
ROCHESTER HILLS, Mich., Feb. 5 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --
Trubiquity, a leading international provider of global managed data
exchange (MDE) and business process integration solutions, announced today that
its B2B communication product TRUeurex-c has been certified by Odette
International Ltd, the European automotive standards organization, as being
fully compliant with the new OFTP2 communication protocol specifications. Upon
successful completion of the last stage of interoperability tests including the
verification of meeting all of OFTP2's new security features, the solution has
been issued official certification from Odette. TRUeurex-c is used by over
2,000 companies to enable CAD and EDI data exchange as a standalone or as a
part of a more comprehensive Trubiquity or partner solution.
The OFTP File Transfer Protocol (OFTP) is a de facto standard for the
automated standardized data exchange between trading partners within business
sectors such as automotive, engineering and transportation. OFTP2, the new
version of the protocol, was developed for secure data exchange globally over
the public Internet, reducing data transport costs and increasing transmission
speed dramatically. Trubiquity has played an active role in the Odette OFTP2
working group to ensure the development and release of this important standard
and was involved in the initial development of the testing specifications.
"OFTP2 provides improved capabilities for data encryption, partner
authentication, digital signatures, compression and other features. Our proven
OFTP2 capabilities provides added functionality to Trubiquity's global managed
data exchange solutions used by customers in Europe, the Americas and Asia
Pacific," said Klas Uhthoff, Trubiquity's Technology Director.
Key automotive manufacturers have announced OFTP2 data exchange strategies
in order to reduce communication costs and to benefit from a globally
available, fast, reliable and secure communication protocol. These strategies
will require automotive supply chains to comply with the requirements by
implementing the appropriate software. Therefore, Trubiquity has developed its
OFTP2 solution TRUeurex-c and has incorporated support of OFTP2 into a number
of its managed data exchange automation solutions, for instance TRUfusion
Connect and TRUfusion Enterprise.
