| Local file encryption
can be used to protect files stored on computers. When a laptop
is being used outside of a secure location or a desktop terminal
allows for multiple users, sensitive information needs to stay
secure. Even if a system is lost, stolen, or otherwise compromised,
the file is protected. Simple File Encryption solutions are
always needed for mobile users. However, weak security that
allows users to keep their mobility is more detrimental by instilling
a false sense of security. Most mobile solutions are primarily
password only, which is inherently insecure. Some solutions
offer the ability to incorporate a token or smart card, but
only at an additional expense and added administration. Local
file encryption also needs to be intuitive and effortless, to
ensure that user habits allow them to easily encrypt items.
Authenex ASafe™ offers local
file encryption protected by two-factor authentication. With
the convenient Authenex A-Key®
token, files can be encrypted by a simple right-click method.
The A-Key is a house key size device that utilizes the USB port
and uses 128-bit AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) to protect
your files. The ASafe application also allows for Secure File
Exchange.
