SecureData, a member of the JSE-listed ERP.com Group, and the southern African distributor for SafeBoot, today announced the latter's release of SafeBoot for USB Enterprise.
This enterprise management software of the SafeBoot for USB product line makes it even easier for corporations to deploy and manage SafeBoot for USB devices on an enterprise-wide scale, providing maximum protection over an organisation's assets.
SafeBoot for USB devices are secure, portable storage devices that provide strong user access control and transparently encrypt all data stored on them, ensuring sensitive data remains secure wherever it travels.
The range of devices consists of four models, Standard, Silhouette, Phantom and Hard Disk, each with its unique features and benefits.
According to SafeBoot Product Manager Tom de Jongh: "The launch of the SafeBoot for USB range was a huge success and demand for the SafeBoot for USB devices is overwhelming. However, in large implementations there is always the question of how to deploy and administer these devices. This enterprise release tackles these issues."
SafeBoot for USB Enterprise is management software that enables corporations to implement and manage their SafeBoot for USB devices. Benefits include:
* A light deployment model - featuring fast and easy deployment with virtually no impact on existing IT environments and business processes.
* Streamlined workflows - whereby multiple users throughout an organisation can be assigned different roles off the roll-out, such as the help-desk for recovery, security managers for policies and secretaries for issuance.
* Fully scalable - allowing any number of SafeBoot for USB devices, complete with unique ID registration, can be effectively managed and controlled and bound to the corporate user from Microsoft Active Directory.
* No end-user training - featuring intuitive wizards and user interfaces allow users to fully enrol themselves without any training.
* Regulatory compliance - ensuring secure, remote recovery and rescue, corporate data is not lost when an employee leaves the organisation or forgets a password. Extensive auditing also enables proof that data was encrypted at the time the device was lost or stolen.
"By adding SafeBoot for USB Enterprise to our product range, organisations can now start to roll-out large numbers of SafeBoot for USB devices without being worried about how to manage them. With this enterprise management software, they will have full control over their devices and can achieve a minimal total cost of ownership," added De Jongh.
