Leveraging Managed Data Protection to Safeguard Intellectual Property

Mobile endpoint computing devices can greatly enhance worker productivity, but they also dramatically increase risks for the enterprise. Theft or accidental loss of these endpoint devices can lead to the exposure of an organization's intellectual property and other types of confidential business information. Their small size further makes it easy for data to leave the organization unnoticed.

As part of a larger risk management strategy, organizations are looking for a solution to prevent the exposure of intellectual property and other confidential business information by protecting data stored on laptop PCs and portable media devices.




The Solution: A Managed Approach to Enterprise Data Protection

Encryption software provides the foundation for securing data on mobile endpoints such as laptop PCs, flash memory cards, portable hard drives and smart phones. However, traditional data encryption software solutions are designed for individual users and do not scale well to meet the needs of corporate and governmental organizations. These customers require a comprehensive solution for endpoint data protection that helps automate and enforce endpoint data security policies in a consistent manner across their organization.

Commercial and government organizations around the world rely on GuardianEdge software solutions for hard disk encryption, removable storage media encryption, and endpoint device access and usage control to secure their critical information assets. When implemented as part of the GuardianEdge Data Protection Platform, GuardianEdge endpoint encryption solutions offer comprehensive data protection capabilities that go far beyond the limitations of single-point solutions, offering a unified approach to managing multiple data protection solutions while leveraging existing business processes and IT infrastructure.

By implementing GuardianEdge solutions as part of an integrated system for managing information security, organizations can:

  • Reduce the risks and liabilities resulting from the compromise of trade secrets
  • Provide auditable evidence that data on missing assets is protected
  • Prevent erosion of brand equity or goodwill, and promote a stronger corporate image
  • Expand revenue potential via data security as competitive advantage
