With 74 percent of an enterprise’s overall financial losses being the result of virus attacks, unauthorized access to networks, lost/stolen laptops and mobile hardware, theft of proprietary info or intellectual property, protecting your endpoints is of an utmost importance.
Enterprises today are constantly challenged with security and support issues arising from endpoint users, their laptops and PCs.
The proliferation of consumer devices such as iPods, USB drivers, smart phones and other portable devices has increased the risk of data leakage and malicious activity on networks. While most companies have anti-virus software, firewalls, email and web content security to protect against external threats, few realize how easy it is for an employee to copy huge amounts of sensitive data onto an iPod or USB stick. There is also a risk of viruses or malware and illegal software being introduced on the network. One way to prevent this from happening is to lock down all ports but this is neither sustainable nor advised.
Lumension Sanctuary Device Control delivers effective data security across endpoints and removable devices with the most comprehensive enterprise-wide policy and granular control capabilities.
USB memory sticks, FireWire external hard-drives, scanners, music players, digital cameras, PDAs, and CD/DVD burner drives are scattered throughout offices around the world. The proliferation of these devices provides many avenues for sensitive data to literally walk out the door. By taking a proactive approach through the use of whitelisting, Sanctuary enables only authorized devices to be accessible on a network, laptop or PC. All unauthorized device access is prohibited by default.
Sanctuary Device Control prevents data loss and theft by enforcing removable device use policies to control the flow of inbound and outbound data from your endpoints. Ensuring the protection of data-at-rest or data-in-motion, Sanctuary Device Control:
- Identifies all the devices that are currently connected or have ever been connected to network assets
- Protects against data theft and data loss
- Enforces the encryption of information transferred to removable media, including USB sticks, CDs and DVDs
- Controls and manages any removable devices through any ports including USB, Firewire, WIFI, Bluetooth, etc.
- Delivers detailed forensics of device usages and data transfer
- Prevents malware introduction via removable media
Using GFI End-Point Security you can centrally disable users from accessing portable storage media preventing users from stealing data or bringing in data that could be harmful to your network, such as viruses, trojans and other malware. Although you can switch off portable storage devices such as CD and/or floppy access from the BIOS, in reality this solution is impractical: You would have to physically visit the machine to temporarily switch off protection and install software. In addition, advanced users can hack the BIOS. GFI End-Point Security allows you to take control over a wide variety of devices including:
- Floppy disks
- CDs and DVD ROMs
- iPods
- Storage devices
- Printers
- PDAs
- Network adapters
- Modems
- Imaging devices
- Perimeter Defense and Network Security
- Wireless Networks & Mobile Security
- Intrusion Prevention / Detection
- Event Correlation/Management
- Patch Management
- Proxy Servers
- Content Management
- Enterprise Antivirus
- End Point Security or Data Leakage
- Database and File Servers Security
- MS Active Directory Optimization
- Authentication & Single Sign-on
- Enterprise Encryption
