WindTalker CEO Chris Combs has an analogy. Think of a glass of water. The glass itself is simply a container—like a law firm’s IT network, or its hard drives. But it’s the water—the firm’s content—that truly needs to be protected. “If we’re protecting the container, protecting the glass, and we take the water and pour it into another glass, the container is no longer around the water and it’s no longer protected.”

It’s that focus on protecting content itself that has led Combs and his team to develop WindTalker, a cloud-based content security software that looks to allow for more secure, yet collaborative, document redaction and sharing. The tool was initially developed for the U.S. Department of Defense and is now seeing its release into the wider legal market this week.
