Comprehensive data protection and control for endpoint removable media
Maximize operational efficiency with industry-leading performance
Easy-to-use, transparent centralized management from a single console
The centralized endpoint security manager allows administrators to set and enforce encryption policy for removable media and devices using algorithms such as AES 256-bit, for maximum data protection. Unique to Check Point, users can securely access encrypted media from unmanaged computers, with no client installation.
Removable media enforcement maximizes data security by placing a unique digital signature on each encrypted device, informing the user of any unauthorized changes made to stored information. Should any changes be detected, the device will need to be re-authorized before it can be used in the protected environment again.
Use Check Point UserCheck™ to actively engage and educate users as they access portable media to identify potential policy incidents as they occur and remediate them immediately.
The Media Encryption Software Blade is centrally managed by the Endpoint Policy Management Software Blade, enabling central policy administration, enforcement and logging from a single, user-friendly console. Centralized management offers unmatched leverage and control of security policies and multiple deployment options offer easy installation and minimize user impact, for a reduced overall cost of operations.
The device access settings control access to removable media, devices and ports. Devices can be defined at a granular level by type, brand, size or ID, for maximum data protection. Access to endpoint ports such as USB, FireWire, Bluetooth, WiFi, printer, etc., can be centrally managed.
Use Check Point UserCheck™ to actively engage and educate users as they access portable media to identify potential policy incidents as they occur and remediate them immediately.
