devices on corporate computers can create security risks and support
nightmares. USB thumb drives and other portable storage devices
represent a danger to corporate data. Users who plug them into
computers may inadvertently introduce viruses or spyware. Even worse,
employees can copy large amounts of confidential data to these
devices, and you won’t know in whose hands this data will end
up.
DriveLock is a leading solution for controlling all peripherals in
your network and securing your mobile data. Unparalleled flexibility
and granular control mean that you can achieve this protection without
adding to the workload for IT administrators. DriveLock has the best
integration with Windows Active Directory. Product description: DriveLock Standard gives you complete and granular control over who is allowed to connect which device to a corporate computer. You can also control what users can copy to or from these devices. For example, you can prevent the use of music players, portable hard drives and novelty items, such as coffee warmers, without blocking approved devices, such as keyboards, mice and printers.
Administration
- All configuration is done using a Microsoft Management Console (MMC) snap-in
- Device Scanner allows you to find out which devices are or were ever connected to all computers in your network and simplifies the creation of rules
- Easy client deployment using Group Policy or other software deployment system
- Central configuration using Active Directory and Group Policy
- Alternate configuration mechanism using configuration files via UNC path, HTTP or FTP
- Supports Group Policy Management Console (GPMC) and NetIQ Group Policy Administrator
- Remote connection to Client computers to temporarily unlock devices and to troubleshoot policy enforcement
- Remote identification of devices connected to clients
- Quick policy deployment using templates for common computer models (Dell, HP, IBM, etc.)
- Deployment Wizard
- Customizable taskbar notification with HTML text
