PC Encryption Compliance Enterprise-wide in Hours. Really.
|
Conveniently offered as a subscription service, Lost Data Destruction (LDD) can be deployed enterprise-wide in hours, not weeks or months as is the case with other encryption solutions. Remote deployment to your organization’s PCs means no physical software installation and absolutely no interruption of user productivity. In fact, your users need not know LDD has been installed on their PC. Your enterprise data is safe and exempted from disclosure, punitive and possible legal action in the unfortunate but predictable loss or theft of your next PC. With LDD, this protection can begin today.

Encryption is Only Part of the Enterprise PC Data Security Story |
| |
256 bit AES encryption is a foundation of LDD. Encryption alone however is an insufficient tool for true PC data security. Why? Because encryption relies on users to maintain the secrecy and integrity of their passwords or other credentials. Certainly it is a mistake to fundamentally rely on users to adhere to stated corporate policies. Witness the recent case of a home healthcare worker in Michigan who had her PC stolen. While the data was encrypted, the computer was taken with the password affixed thus eliminating the encryption protection, and prompting the company to publicly disclose the loss. An isolated event? Hardly. A Nucleus Research survey tells us that 1 in 3 users write down their password. To make matters worse, authorized users may someday become unauthorized, leaving the enterprise’s data fully exposed because those users still control the hardware and can continue to provide authentication to access hard drive data that they no longer have the rights to possess.
Responsible business leaders recognize the need for true PC data protection where the organization retains control over its data – not its employees. Solutions reliant on user acceptance are both flawed and adversely affect workforce productivity.
With or without an internet connect LDD silently enforces your organization’s data security policy on its PC inventory and will respond appropriately to various threats. Among the tools in the LDD arsenal for response to data threats are:

Intelligent Encryption
- Destruction of at-risk data
- Data "Quarantine" (temporary denial and restoration of data access through key management)
- Computer shutdown
- Time/date-specified data elimination
