STOP DATA FROM SLIPPING THROUGH YOUR FINGERS

	Case Study

Stahl Locks the Side Doors with DeviceLock®

DeviceLock® ensures that users cannot simply download data from the network and copy it to USB sticks, laptops and other mobile equipment. Stahl operates an internally developed system for granting authorisations. Employees are assigned to groups and, depending on the group, they may or may not be allowed to read or read and write on removable discs. Those who are not a member of a group are automatically denied all access. Ultimately approval must be given on three levels, on the basis of a workflow model. It is only when the employee's own manager, the local IT coordinator and the 'object owner' (which can be a shared file, an application or a group) have given their permission that the employee is assigned to a group and granted access to the active directory environment.

New white paper published: "Adapting Endpoint Security to "Mobilized" Consumerization of Corporate IT"

03/02/2008

Consumer electronics and applications are proliferating in corporate IT environments, significantly increasing the threat of lost and stolen data. Personal devices such as Smartphones and Mobile Internet Devices (MIDs) are now commonly brought to work and used for business purposes.

Today’s personal mobile devices (smartphones and PDAs) have been a boon to employee productivity. Though the number of mobile business applications is limited today – mostly email, IM and, less frequently, Presence Awareness – smartphones are already actively used in mid-sized and large organizations.

In preparation, significant attention must be paid to the definition and enforcement of IT security policies related to personal devices and corresponding changes in security threat profiles. To meet the challenge, the industry should have an effective solution for every aspect of endpoint security.

By utilizing an internally developed patent-pending technology, DeviceLock, Inc. has implemented the fundamental components of the complete local sync DLP architecture in its DeviceLock® software product that enforces mechanisms of mobile device connection control in combination with local sync data type detection and filtering.
