Security company Symantec has announced three security products that it claims organisations can use to secure and manage unstructured information, including email, instant messages and files.

The products were announced by the security firm on Tuesday. The first product, Symantec Brightmail Gateway 8.0, has anti-spam and antivirus capabilities, along with outbound email-content filtering, and is the latest iteration of a product that used to be called Symantec Mail Security.

The company also announced Symantec Data Loss Prevention 9.0, which it claimed makes it possible to use a single dashboard to mitigate data loss across end-user devices and network and storage systems.

The third product to be announced, Symantec Enterprise Vault 8.0, lets organisations store, manage and discover information, including unstructured information.

The three products are designed to complement Symantec's 'Information Risk Management Strategy', a suite of services for messaging security, archiving and data-loss prevention.

Availability and UK pricing information was unavailable at the time of writing.
