According to a recent study by the Ponemon Institute, data breaches have cost companies upwards of $6.3 billion.¹ It’s no wonder protecting information assets is one of the most important issues facing companies today.

Protect your company’s mission-critical information with McAfee Endpoint Encryption. This solution uses powerful encryption and strong access control to prevent unauthorized access to your sensitive data and stop its loss.

Endpoint Encryption offers two forms of encryption to protect data from unauthorized access wherever it is stored or travels:

• Full-disk encryption helps ensure that information remains secure when it’s stored on desktops, laptops, tablets, and other mobile devices
• File and folder encryption lets you control which specific file types and folders are encrypted—and ensure they stay encrypted regardless of where they are saved using Persistent Encryption Technology™

With both encryption types, encryption happens transparently and “on the fly,” with virtually no system performance degradation. There’s also no user interaction or training required. As a result, you never miss a beat to keep your data protected.

When users start up their PCs, they are met with strong two-factor authentication before their computers complete booting. These two factors could be the combination of a password challenge and possession of a smart card or token. Other options are also available. Thanks to single sign-on, once users authenticate, they have unfettered access to the information they need to do their jobs efficiently.

Through powerful encryption and strong access control, your data is now protected against unauthorized use. To demonstrate this fact to others and meet industry and government compliance requirements, Endpoint Encryption also offers extensive auditing and reporting capabilities.

Small size and low costs combined with immense storage capacity make USB drives wonderfully useful, yet incredibly dangerous. Because they’re small, these devices are easy to lose or use for corporate espionage. Their huge storage capability increases the potential amount of data at risk.

In a McAfee-sponsored survey, 55 percent of respondents claimed that they regularly brought documents out of the workplace on a USB drive. Of those, 17 percent admitted they accidentally left their USB drive in a public place.

McAfee Encrypted USB protects data from leaving your company’s control through USB drives. McAfee Encrypted USB storage devices feature powerful encryption technology and strong access controls to ensure that information copied and stored on them is safe and can only be read by authorized persons.

Data is automatically encrypted “on the fly” with virtually no impact on performance. Because the encryption happens transparently to users, there is no interaction or training necessary.

Each Encrypted USB storage device is capable of supporting multiple end users. Users maintain their own secure, password-protected partitions. When users enter their passwords, it unlocks the device and grants users access to their data.

Administrators can also create an optional “public area” in which to store information that doesn’t need to be encrypted.

Centralized management enables you to centrally define and enforce securities policies to ensure data stored on devices remains protected in case they are lost or stolen. It also allows you to deploy and manage any number of Encrypted USB storage devices and users. In addition, you can leverage your existing Microsoft Active Directory implementation to match users and Encrypted USB devices.

Finally, Encrypted USB helps you meet your compliance goals with extensive auditing capabilities. For example, prove that a USB device was encrypted at the time it was lost.

As long as PCs have been in use, they have featured wired ports to connect them to peripherals and networks among other things. In recent years, wireless connectivity has become increasingly popular as well. And while these wired and wireless ports are obviously useful, they also pose a potential security threat to your customer information and proprietary data. Any number of unapproved devices could be attached to your endpoint ports and used to siphon off your confidential information.

McAfee Port Control helps keep your sensitive data from leaving your company through strong access control. Only authorized individuals  may connect only approved devices to PC ports, including memory sticks, removable disks, and more.

Through a centralized management console, you establish security policies that control how users copy information to removable devices and media. You can even synchronize these security policies with existing solutions, such as Microsoft Active Directory, Novell eDirectory, and PKI. These security policies then run transparently to keep users productive. The only time users would even become aware of Port Control would be if they attempted to use an unauthorized storage device in violation of your established policies.

This solution’s centralized management gives you precise control over all devices, regardless of how they are attached to your endpoints. You have the options of enabling or disabling an entire class of devices through standard policies, or allowing some while disallowing others through policies with exceptions:

• Standard policy: No removable drives allowed
• Policy with exception: No removable drives allowed except Manufacturer A’s USB memory stick

Finally, Port Control integrates with McAfee Endpoint Encryption (formerly SafeBoot® Encryption) and other technologies to provide end-to-end data and device security within your environment.
