Cyberoam Launches Endpoint Data Protection

Cyberoam, a provider of identity-based Unified Threat Management solutions, has launched its Endpoint Data Protection suite to secure corporate data and manage IT assets. This suite extends Cyberoam’s security protection from the gateway to the endpoint, reinforcing its presence as a complete security provider.

Harish Chib, vice president, New Business Development, Cyberoam, says, “Blended threats do not distinguish between the gateway and the endpoint to gain entry. With the launch of the Endpoint Data Protection suite, Cyberoam will secure organisations at the gateway and the desktop, offering a single security cover for organisations.”

Cyberoam’s Endpoint Data Protection suite consists of four modules - Data Protection and Encryption, Device Management, Application Control and Asset Management. With its policy-driven data protection and asset management, the suite delivers identity and group-based policy control as well as activity logging to provide control and visibility of data transfer over removable devices; applications; chat applications such as Skype, MSN and more; network sharing and printers.

The real benefits of this suite come in the form of high granularity in defining customisable whitelists and blacklists. User identity-based control over file handling, granular controls over data transfer based on user, group, time, file name, type, size, location, and extending of controls outside the network in addition to creation of shadow copies ensures that Cyberoam delivers effective data security. Encryption and decryption controls of the file or removable device prevent data leakage either through loss of device or malicious transfer of data to unauthorised endpoints.
