McAfee Endpoint Encryption
(formerly SafeBootŪ Encryption)
Prevent data loss using powerful encryption and strong access
control
With more and more data breach incidents making the news, companies are
understandably concerned about protecting their information assets. Using the
powerful encryption and strong access control features of McAfee Endpoint
EncryptionT, you can prevent unauthorized access to your sensitive data and stop
data loss and exposure today.
Description
According to a recent study by the Ponemon Institute, data breaches have cost
companies upwards of $6.3 billion.1 It's no wonder protecting information assets
is one of the most important issues facing companies today.
Protect your company's mission-critical information with McAfee Endpoint
Encryption. This solution uses powerful encryption and strong access control to
prevent unauthorized access to your sensitive data and stop its loss.
Endpoint Encryption offers two forms of encryption to protect data from
unauthorized access wherever it is stored or travels:
- Full-disk encryption helps ensure that information remains secure when it's
stored on desktops, laptops, tablets, and other mobile devices
- File and folder encryption lets you control which specific file types and
folders are encrypted-and ensure they stay encrypted regardless of where they
are saved using Persistent Encryption TechnologyT
With both encryption types, encryption happens transparently and "on the
fly," with virtually no system performance degradation. There's also no user
interaction or training required. As a result, you never miss a beat to keep
your data protected.
When users start up their PCs, they are met with strong two-factor
authentication before their computers complete booting. These two factors could
be the combination of a password challenge and possession of a smart card or
token. Other options are also available. Thanks to single sign-on, once users
authenticate, they have unfettered access to the information they need to do
their jobs efficiently.
Through powerful encryption and strong access control, your data is now
protected against unauthorized use. To demonstrate this fact to others and meet
industry and government compliance requirements, Endpoint Encryption also offers
extensive auditing and reporting capabilities.
