Secured eUSB

Business Benefits

• 

  Encrypt any USB drive, use it anywhere

  It doesn’t matter what USB flash drives your employees buy or get given for free, Secured eUSB can encrypt any brand and will secure its entire available storage. A secured USB flash drive can be used in any Windows-based computer as all the software required for operating it is on the drive.

• 

  Encrypt CDs/DVDs, track their use

  Empower end users to encrypt CD/DVDs through a simple process. Once encrypted the CD/DVD can be used on any Windows-based computer. Every encrypted CD/DVD has the intelligence to report all user actions to the central management console for comprehensive reporting capabilities.

• 

  Encrypt external hard drives, protect data

  Empower end users to encrypt any brand of portable external hard drive in minutes and use it on any Windows-based computer. Every encrypted portable hard drive has the intelligence to report all user actions to the central management console for comprehensive reporting capabilities.

• 

  Enforce encryption of portable storage devices

  For most organizations with regulatory compliance obligations, it’s important to ensure that all data that is saved to a portable device is encrypted. With the Secured eUSB solution it is possible to configure it so users are obliged to encrypt USB flash drives, external hard drives and CD/DVDs in order to be able to store information on them. For example, IT can set up a device policy to ensure that end users can read data from private flash drives and customer flash drives but in order to be able to store data on a flash drive it must be encrypted with the Secured eUSB technology.

• 

  Kill Pill Anti-theft system

  If a user loses or misplaces a secured portable device IT can issue a ’lockout’ command to block access to the device - administrators can unlock the device if required. The "Kill Pill" command will wipe the portable device completely clean to ensure complete data protection, even over the Internet.

• 

  Track device ownership

  For each secured portable device, the system automatically assigns ownership to an Active Directory user. IT can therefore track usage of secured portable devices and generate data loss reports if a secured portable device is lost or stolen. If a user leaves the organization, IT can quickly identify which secured portable device the user owns and ask for them to be returned.

• 

  The highest security standards

  Secured eUSB creates a secure working environment. The user can open or create any Microsoft file within the secure working area of the device and make changes without ever moving documents to an insecure environment. Any temporary files created by Microsoft during the editing process are wiped. A secured Recycle Bin travels with the device to ensure that data is not moved to an unsecured recycle bin, enabling restore at a later date.

• 

  Enable users to take responsibility for removable media security

  The Simple Encryption Platform (SEP) allows IT to centrally manage and enforce removable media security policies - create custom environments, define roles and permissions for groups and users, and then deploy this across the entire network. Users are then able to define who can access their encrypted portable device, and what they can do with a document: eg. read only, or read/write.

• Client application or zero footprint deployment

  You choose how you want to manage the removable media encryption process: deploy client software to all end point computers, so that users can execute the removable media encryption on their own flash drives automatically, or centrally manage the encryption process in the IT department, distributing pre-encrypted devices on demand.

• 

  Full compliance reporting and audit trail

  Automatic reporting ensures a complete record of removable media security in the organization. Reports include inventory listing of all secured portable devices, and real time analysis of what data is on each device and where it originated. If a device is lost or stolen, IT can quickly do a data loss report. IT can also track data content movement on each device - copy, rename, delete - to audit for possible illegal activity or data leakage.

• 

  Help desk support for lost password recovery

  A built-in password recovery system significantly reduces the workload for the help desk by speeding up the process for verifying the user’s identity before a recovery password is issued.
