Magix Security announces availability of Safend's Data Protection Suite V3.4.5

Johannesburg, 26 Jan 2012

Magix Security has announced the availability of Safend's Data Protection Suite V3.4.5 in South Africa.

Safend Data Protection Suite provides complete endpoint data protection in a single software product, with a single management server and a single lightweight agent. It includes several product components, which are activated by associating an appropriate policy with the user/machine, assuming the component is licensed.

“Theft and malicious damage to company intellectual property (IP) stored in a digital environment is a constant threat for South African businesses, irrespective of their size,” says Phillip Gerber, MD of Magix Security. “Safend Data Protection Suite gives companies greater protection and control of their assets across the network by delivering complete visibility, control and protection of enterprise endpoints.”

Gerber adds that Safend's Data Protection Suite does more than just protect endpoints and IP. “By safeguarding company assets, it also provides organisations with additional levels of risk management, governance and compliance. In addition, it also protects clients, business partners and employees from the actions and intentions of unscrupulous individuals.”

* Automatically Mount Encrypted Volume for Encrypted CD\DVD - Safend Data Protection agent is now mounting automatically the encrypted volume of the CD\DVDs that were encrypted with Safend Agent.
