Attachmate Corporation announces the release of the Attachmate Reflection 2011 R2 family of products. The updated, next-generation terminal emulation software provides strengthened desktop and host security, gives IT administrators the tools to preconfigure and successfully deploy the product, improves user efficiency with advanced productivity features, and provides support for new and emerging platforms.

The product supports the stringent security requirements defined by the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS), the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), and new internal security policies that many organizations enact. With Reflection 2011, companies can mask sensitive data, such as credit card and national ID numbers, on live host screens; redact data while users type to prevent it from being written down and stolen; bar users from connecting to mission-critical applications unless encryption is enabled for the connection; and let administrators assign different levels of access to private information on host screens, limiting the exposure of sensitive data.

Additional new features and functionalities of Reflection 2011 R2 include:

• Browser UI mode is a browser-like user interface for host sessions that simplifies the user experience similar to next-generation web browsers, letting users use more screen real estate with host applications and efficiently work without their fingers having to leave the keyboard.
• The new .NET Embeddable Control enables Visual Studio .NET developers to augment and enhance the legacy application experience without having to modify the host application.
• A designated VMware-ready product, Reflection 2011 has passed a detailed evaluation and testing process managed by VMware and is now listed on the VMware Partner Product Catalog.

Reflection 2011 includes support for modern operating environments and virtualization technologies, and leverages key Microsoft Windows 7 and Office 2010 productivity features. In addition, the product can add an extra layer of security in front of host systems via the secure token authorization feature to help organizations further protect mission-critical systems and data.

Attachmate Reflection 2011 products connect Windows users to legacy applications running on IBM System z, IBM System i, Unix, OpenVMS, and HP NonStop hosts, and provide support for current operating environments such as Windows 7, Windows Vista, and Windows Server 2008 R2. The software also supports critical virtualization technologies deployed in the enterprise, such as Microsoft App-V, VMware, and Citrix XenApp.
