Delivering Comprehensive Endpoint Encryption
Drive and Removable Media Encryption. The Symantec PGP Encryption Suite includes Symantec Endpoint Encryption, which empowers your workforce to be productive from anywhere while ensuring the protection of sensitive data stored on their devices. This is achieved through robust full-disk and removable media encryption. Built on world-leading PGP encryption technology and featuring an intuitive central management platform, it safeguards sensitive data from loss or theft. Additionally, the system helps administrators demonstrate that a device was encrypted in the event that it goes missing.
Desktop Email Encryption. Symantec Desktop Email Encryption, included with the PGP Encryption Suite, offers automated encryption, decryption, digital signing, and message verification in alignment with centrally managed policies for employees and internal users. This encryption process occurs at the client level, ensuring that communications remain secure before traversing internal networks or being stored in cloud repositories. Additionally, Symantec Gateway Email Encryption (sold separately) enables message encryption based on highly customizable rules, without requiring a client.
File and Folder Encryption. Symantec File Share Encryption, included with the Symantec PGP Encryption Suite, extends file server access controls to incorporate strong end-to-end encryption. This enables content owners or administrators to specify access rights for specific groups, individuals, applications, or file locations. Administrators can set encryption policies to ensure automatic encryption when data is created by selected applications or sent to specific folders. Encrypted files and folders can be moved without compromising their encrypted status, ensuring that only authorized users have access to sensitive data.
