Ensure authorized transfer of information to portable devices

Preventing the unauthorized transfer of sensitive data to portable media is a critical component of a complete enterprise endpoint data protection strategy. While portable storage devices and media drive productivity in the workplace they also pose numerous risks to critical enterprise data. Organizations need solutions that protect this mobile data while preserving productivity. Achieving this balance requires a comprehensive solution that pushes the data security protection perimeter down to individual endpoints through effective controls and comprehensive activity monitoring.

GuardianEdge Device Control enables organizations to monitor device usage and file transfer activity, control access to ports, devices, and wireless networks, as well as to restrict user’s ability to copy protected information to removable media. When implemented with GuardianEdge Removable Storage Encryption, the combination provides complete protection for enterprise data on PCs from the risks of portable devices and media.
