Features

Set Encryption from Centralized Security Management

The centralized endpoint security manager allows administrators to set and enforce encryption policy for removable media and devices using algorithms such as AES 256-bit, for maximum data protection. Unique to Check Point, users can securely access encrypted media from unmanaged computers, with no client installation.


Removable Media Enforcement

Removable media enforcement maximizes data security by placing a unique digital signature on each encrypted device, informing the user of any unauthorized changes made to stored information. Should any changes be detected, the device will need to be re-authorized before it can be used in the protected environment again.


Engage and Educate Users with Integrated Check Point UserCheck

Use Check Point UserCheck™ to actively engage and educate users as they access portable media to identify potential policy incidents as they occur and remediate them immediately.
