Extend your USB security policies to cover data-in-transit

Enforced Encryption uses 256 bit AES encryption to ensure data being transferred to portable USB storage is protected from loss or theft.

The solution enhances your Device Control policies, and replaces the need for expensive hardware-based solutions, by automatically encrypting sensitive data being transferred to approved and trusted USB storage devices.

Data Compliance

Enforced Encryption enables your organization to protect sensitive data and achieve regulatory compliance with NIST, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, GDPR, SOX, and others, avoiding fines and other damages imposed by regulatory entities.

Remote Administration

Admins can send messages to users and reset passwords in case they have been compromised or forgotten. USBs can also be wiped remotely by resetting the device, effectively deleting the client and all the encrypted files.

Multi-OS

Overcoming the limitations of using OS-specific solutions such as BitLocker and FileVault, Enforced Encryption works across both Windows and macOS.

Keep control of your sensitive data-in-transit and protect it from loss ot theft

Multi-OS coverage

Unlike BitLocker and FileVault, Enforced Encryption is compatible across both Windows and macOS.

Military-grade encryption

256bit AES encryption (CBC-mode) keeps data safe in the event of device loss or theft.

Granular administrative controls

Manage access at the company level, or assignrights to users or individual computers.

How Enforced Encryption works

If permitted by your Device Control policy, the Enforced Encryption application is automatically pushed to the USB storage device on first use. The application then allows files to be moved and automatically places them within a password-protected, encrypted container on the storage device.

Security administrators can manage encrypted devices through the Endpoint Protector administrative console.

Data is encrypted automatically when files are transferred, with no additional action required by the user

Remote wipe capability and the ability to push updates and messages to users

Data can be moved securely to other computers enrolled in your Enforced Encryption program.

Protect company IP, PII, financial data, or other regulated data types without compromising productivity

Intellectual Property (IP) Protection

Endpoint Protector uses advanced technologies such as N-gram-based text categorization to accurately discover IP, including source code, within hundreds of file formats, and then monitor and control any transfers to prevent data theft.

Personally Identifiable Information (PII) Protection

Discover and protect Personally Identifiable Information (PII) and sensitive information stored on employee endpoints with our data discovery module. Monitor data and prevent data exfiltration and data leaks with an all-in-one Data Loss Prevention tool.

Insider Threat Protection

Stop data leakage and data theft and by applying appropriate cybersecurity controls at the endpoint - from logging potential insider threats, to real-time blocking. Discover end-users that fail to follow data security policies and situations that can lead to a policy violation or data leakage.

Compliance and Regulations

Endpoint Protector’s DLP software can help organizations ensure data privacy and achieve regulatory compliance with HIPAA, PCI-DSS, NIST, GDPR, SOX, and others, avoiding fines and other damages imposed by regulatory entities.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is USB encryption?

USB encryption means only users with an encryption key file or password will be able to access the data stored on an encrypted flash drive. With this security measure, companies can safeguard data copied on USB portable storage devices and restrict access to it. USB encryption ensures that sensitive data stored on removable devices remains protected and eliminates the threat of data loss or data theft.

How to encrypt a USB flash drive?

There are two types of encryption options for USB flash drives: hardware-based encryption and software-based encryption. While hardware-based encryption uses a device’s built-in security, thus being tied to a specific device, with software-based encryption all devices within the organization can be protected. Authentication like a key or password is required in both cases, thus unintended third parties won’t be able to access the information on the USB drive.

Check out how to use USB encryption from Endpoint Protector.

Why you need USB encryption software?

USB storage devices are convenient for sharing and transporting data, but due to their size and portability, they are easily lost, forgotten, or stolen. Therefore sensitive data stored on unsecured USB devices is at risk and needs to be protected. With USB encryption, companies can ensure that the sensitive data stored on these devices is useless to anyone who tries to access it without a decryption key, thus avoiding non-compliance fines, legal liabilities and reputational damage.

How Enforced Encryption Works?

Enforced Encryption allows IT Administrators to extend their Device Control policy and make sure all confidential data transferred to USB storage devices is automatically encrypted. The solution can be used on both macOS and Windows computers.
