Sensitive company records or other data stored on your notebook
or PC could fall into the wrong hands. Especially today,
laptops/notebooks are widely used due to their portability. They
are also gaining on power, which makes many new workstations
built around mobile computers instead of desktops. Sensitive
data stored on these machines are highly vulnerable. Businesses
lose billions of dollars each year due to simple notebook theft.
The data lost in these thefts is far more valuable than the
notebooks themselves. In order to protect sensitive data
stored on notebooks (and PCs), companies need security solutions
that render the data inaccessible and useless to anyone but the
notebook or PC user. Industry standards, such as HIPAA and The
Sarbanes-Oxley Act, demand that measure are taken to secure
customer data or be subjected to monetary fines. Password
protection is not enough as it is easy to crack. Therefore, an
encryption solution that utilizes strong two-factor
authentication of the end-user is required.
The Authenex encryption applications utilize two factors of
authentication: the Authenex A-Key® token and login/password.
Two-factor AES-based encryption can be extended to encrypt and
protect the data on the hard-drive through Authenex HDLock™.
HDLock ensures that sensitive data is protected should a
Notebook or PC be left unattended, lost or stolen. Without the
computer owner's specific A-Key token and the A-Key password,
the disk drive cannot be accessed - protecting access both to
files and documents. |
