Data Security: Introducing Devicelock

Protect your sensitive data and enforce device related security within your organisation using DeviceLock.

Are you protecting your sensitive data?

Do you control what data leaves your network?

Do you know what data is being downloaded from your network at any time?

It only takes competitor – or perhaps a member of staff planted by a competitor - a few seconds to steal vital data from your computers. They only need to plug in a USB memory stick (or even an iPod) into a PC to copy your entire client list, for example. The same action could also introduce a virus, the results of which could be unthinkable in terms of your business.

And they wouldn’t even need to have Administrator rights.

Now, DeviceLock will allow you to enforce device related security within your organisation.

Key Benefits & Features:

Access Control

You can control which users or groups can access your systems; you can even set access permissions for any user down to the time of day and day of the week.

USB White List

Allows you to authorise a specific device to access the USB port, while locking out all others.

Media White List

Allows you to authorise access to specific DVD/CD-ROM disks, uniquely identified by data signature, even when DeviceLock has otherwise blocked the DVD/CD-ROM drive. It can also specify allowed users and groups, so that only authorised users are able to access the contents of the DVD or CD-ROM.

Temporary White List

Allows granting temporary access to a USB-connected device by the issuing of an access code, rather than through regular DeviceLock permission setting/editing procedures.

Device/Port Auditing

Gives your IT staff a complete record of port and device activity, such as uploads and downloads by user and filename in the standard Windows Event log. Also, audit records can be automatically collected from remote computers and centrally stored in SQL Server.

Data Shadowing

This significantly enhances the corporate IT auditor's ability to ensure that sensitive information has not left the premises on removable media. It captures full copies of files that are copied to authorised removable devices, burned to CD/DVD or even printed by authorised end users.

Mobile Device Data Leakage Prevention

With DeviceLock, you can set granular access control, auditing, and shadowing rules for mobile devices that use Windows Mobile or Palm OS. You can centrally set permissions with fine granularity. DeviceLock detects the presence of mobile devices attempting to access ports through USB, COM, IrDA or Bluetooth interfaces.

Tamper Protection

Every user with local administrator privileges is not automatically given DeviceLock administration privileges. The Chief Security Officer or other super-administrator has discrete control.

Group Policy Integration

You have a choice of DeviceLock management consoles including the ability to manage DeviceLock settings using the Windows standard Group Policy interface, making it easier for busy administrators to merge hardware lock-out tasks into their overall systems management workload.

TrueCrypt & PGP Whole Disk Encryption Integration

DeviceLock can detect encrypted PGP and TrueCrypt disks (USB flash drives and other removable media) and apply special "encrypted" permissions to them. For enterprises standardised on encryption solutions, DeviceLock allows administrators to centrally define and remotely control the encryption policies their employees must follow when using removable devices for storing and retrieving corporate data.

Lexar SAFE PSD Integration

DeviceLock detects hardware-encrypted Lexar SAFE PSD 1100 USB drives and applies special "encrypted" permissions to them.
