Features

Full Disk Encryption
Automatic encryption of all hard drive contents, including the operating system, system files and temporary and erased files. All logical partitions are boot-protected and encrypted, sector-by-sector. As a result, attempts to copy individual files, or introduce rogue programs for brute force attacks, are made impossible - even if the hard drive is physically transferred to another computer. And, transparent encryption and a single user interface provide a simple and seamless user experience. Check Point Full Disk Encryption has been awarded the highest security certifications - including Common Criteria EAL4, FIPS-140-2 and BITS – thereby enabling compliance with global data privacy rules and regulations.

Pre-boot Authentication
Prevents unauthorized users from accessing or manipulating information stored on a protected computer. Users must provide all required credentials – username, password, certificate, token, etc. – before the operating system boot process will even begin. For the strongest security, Check Point Full Disk Encryption supports multi-factor authentication options such as certificate-based SmartCards and dynamic tokens.


Single User Interface
Whether deploying the full suite of Check Point Endpoint Security protections or only Check Point Full Disk Encryption, users will always have a single interface accessed via a single tray icon. The interface enables a user to view security status and log files, as well as make basic configuration changes as allowed. Supports multiple languages for global deployments.

Central Management and Logging
Check Point Full Disk Encryption is centrally managed from a single console enabling central policy enforcement and logging for easy compliance and simple administration. Central configuration and support for multiple deployment options streamlines initial installation for the lowest user impact.

Secure Remote Help
Remote Password Change and One-Time Logon remote help options are available for users who may have forgotten their passwords or lost access tokens. In addition, web-based remote help scenarios are supported.
