Review : Our dependency on technology has never ceased to grow. Increased portability, ease of use, stylish looks and a
good dose of marketing hype are the perfect cocktail to entice the population at large! According to GFI’s research, 83% of UK companies surveyed admit giving their employees USB sticks or PDAs, and that portable storage devices enabled mobile working (76%) and data sharing was made easier (61%). A common misconception is that perimeter security measures such as firewalls and anti-virus software are enough to secure corporate data residing on the corporate network. In addition to that, you can also define which users can use removable media from Active Directory and control which user can access removable drives. Moreover, one of the best way to ensure complete control over portable devices is by stting strong technological barriers. This is why GFI EndPointSecurity allows administrators to actively log the activity of:Media players, including iPods Network cards, laptops and other network connections To demonstrate the vulnerability of corporate security, Usher developed a “proof of concept” software application that can automatically search corporate networks and copy (or “slurp”) business critical data on to an iPod. This software application runs directly from an iPod and when connected to a computer it can slurp (copy) large volumes of corporate data on to an iPod within minutes. Besides, the software provides a detailed list containing a number of portable device types. Installation GFI EndPointSecurity consists of a server part and a client part. On the server-side, policies are configured and settings are pushed to the clients. On the client-side, a GFI EndPointSecurity software agent must be installed. The agent handles and enforces the device policies provided by the server. Overall, you not only gain control over what is in use but you also know what has been used and by who, and most importantly you gain in-depth knowledge of what data has been copied. Moreover, there is a 30 day trial version that is available for download. |
