"We believe that our leading edge USB flash drive encryption solution was a significant differentiator for the city of Malmoe. More and more large enterprise networks see a growing problem with handling all the information that can be stored on a USB flash drive and what the consequences of a lost or stolen drive would mean. The comprehensive nature of our Data Leak Prevention solutions will provide the city of Malmoe with an easy-to-use interface which will prevent the spread of sensitive and confidential information". "The city of Malmoe’s goal is to give their employees the proper business tools to minimize risk and control the access of sensitive and confidential information effectively without compromising normal business processes. Cryptzone’s technology provides a comfort factor in which the technology does not change the way the employees do their job, but enhances the level of security when dealing with sensitive information. We have looked at several different solutions but felt that Cryptzone’s DLP-products were the best regarding installation, ease-of-use, and central management. Other factors which influenced our decision were the quality in product knowledge, technical support and customer care, and we feel that Cryptzone lives well up to our demands", says Peter Johansson, Information Security Officer for the City of Malmoe.
