Removable Media Encryption

Encrypting data on removable storage devices allows organizations to enhance mobility and productivity without compromising security. Administrators can control which devices should be encrypted, as well as which users will be able to access encrypted devices outside the organization.

With this unique feature, every occurrence of offline access to an encrypted device is tracked, providing a comprehensive log of each file transfer to/from this device. With this detailed log, administrators can audit users' actions even on non-company computers, in order to validate legitimate use of corporate data.

For example, a user may be granted with offline privileges for opening a presentation while visiting customer sites. In cases of legitimate use, only these files will be read from the device.

On the other hand, a malicious user may attempt to abuse this privilege and download all the data on the device to his home PC. With this feature, all offline activity of the device is logged, securely stored on the device, and uploaded to the Management Server as soon as the device reconnects to a company computer. The method of storing offline usage logs on the device does not give the user any indication that his/her actions are being monitored. Furthermore, users cannot access this log or delete it.
