Check Point Endpoint Security Full Disk Encryption and SafeSign Identity Client
The impact of data misuse can be severe and managing data security in complex enterprise environments—across servers, desktops, laptops and removable media—can be challenging.
To protect your valuable data on harddisk devices, authentication is done in pre-boot to prevent access through circumventing the operating system.
But pre-boot authentication is mostly based on username – password, which is a weak form of authentication. Access to the Management Center needs to be secured as well by a strong authentication mechanism.
The combination of Check Point Endpoint Security and SafeSign Identity Client (IC) makes it possible to use a strong authentication mechanism based on smart cards or USB tokens to make sure that you access your data in a save way. It safeguards critical data with secure authentication, strong encryption, powerful central management and access control for client PCs, networks and/or applications.
