In today’s computing environments, the majority of new data is on the endpoint. These devices are mobile and not always behind your existing perimeter security. Laptops, smart phones, USB drives and other portable endpoint devices are especially vulnerable to loss and theft.
Novell Endpoint Security solutions provide a scalable and simple method for creating, distributing, enforcing, and monitoring security policies on endpoint devices, without forcing users to make security decisions or adjust any device settings.
Hard Disk Encryption
Stolen laptops do not have to spell disaster. ZENworks Endpoint Security Management secures data stored on Windows 2000, Windows XP and Windows Vista machines, including information stored on removable media, by encrypting files so they can only be read by authorized users. Sensitive information on lost or stolen mobile computers is therefore protected. Encryptions keys are managed easily and transparently throughout the enterprise, requiring no end-user involvement thus allowing them to work in their usual way.
Enhanced Wireless Security
Users who inadvertently access incorrect or bogus wireless connections expose your network to great risk. By centrally controlling when, how, and where users are allowed to connect, Wi-Fi connectivity can be limited to authorized and known access points, to utilise specified encryption strengths, and be disabled completely if necessary based on a users location. This location awareness feature is a key benefit of the Novell solution.
USB Device Control
Don’t let your secrets walk out the door on a USB drive. Novell solutions can prevent intentional or inadvertent transmission of data to removable storage devices. Furthermore USB drives, iPods, cameras, printers, CD and DVD drives can all be placed in read-only mode or fully disabled, while the endpoint hard drive and all network drives remain accessible and operational. White lists of specifically approved USB drives can also be employed in combination with data encryption for further control.
Enforce Application Control
Keep all users compliant with your corporate application policies. Secure your endpoints with a tool that lets you control the applications people can and cannot use. Ensure only approved applications are run on corporate IT assets — create white/black lists, or enforce applications to run (i.e., VPN) prior to network connection.
Personal Firewall
The world’s strongest, easiest to use firewall protects all your Windows 2000, Windows XP and Windows Vista clients against hackers, malware, protocol attacks, and more, keeping security invisible to the end-user and requiring no interaction on their part.
Ensure Client Integrity
Novell endpoint security solutions do not rely on the awareness or compliance of each user to remain secure. Policies ensure that OS security patches, AV data files and other critical posture elements are in place and up to date on your Windows 2000, Windows XP and Windows Vista machines, whether they are connected or not and the solution enables you to warn, shut down or point to update remediation services, prior to executing any other tasks on your network.
Client Self Defense
The solutions also protects the endpoint by ensuring that the security client itself cannot be altered, hacked, or un-installed.
This prevention of rogue access is managed to provide optimal security and performance, thus safely controlling connectivity via LAN, modem, Bluetooth™, Infrared, 1394 (Firewire™), and serial and parallel ports.
Alerts/Monitoring/Reporting
Novell Endpoint Security offers a robust and tunable reporting solution to assist in regulatory compliance reporting. Avoid costly accidents with an endpoint security tool that keeps you informed
