Enhanced policy-based end point encryption

Echoworx announces enhanced Encrypted Documents for endpoint encryption. This release gives companies the power to automatically encrypt files and folders on their employees’ laptops, computers, network drives and even removable media devices if the files meet the requirements of the companies’ pre-defined policies.

Encrypted Documents already gives employees the ability to encrypt files at their option. This latest version helps companies mitigate the risk of liability for employees who forget to encrypt and protect sensitive data.

Data breaches continue to rise, and according to Ponemon Institute, lost business can account for 69% of data breach costs. In these difficult economic times companies are taking important steps to ensure their data is always secure and avoid any unnecessary security risks.

Encrypted Documents is integrated with Windows Explorer and includes a central administration console that allows the Enterprise’s administrator to easily set and manage policies and monitor usage. Enterprises pay a low monthly fee per end user, and as a fully hosted solution, it does not require any additional infrastructure or operations costs.
