Email, mobile computers, and file servers have quickly emerged as
industry-standard tools for increasing communication, user productivity,
and collaboration. Unfortunately, unprotected email, files, and devices
pose a critical risk to an enterprise’s most sensitive data: customer information,
financial data, trade secrets, and other proprietary information.
Exposure of this data can result in financial loss, legal ramifications, and
brand damage.
Features
- Secure confidential data in email, on laptops and
desktops, and shared on file servers
PGP Desktop Corporate provides flexible, multilayered encryption using PGP®
Desktop Email and PGP® Whole Disk Encryption to secure confidential
data in email and in files stored on local desktop or laptop systems and
using PGP® NetShare to securely share files with selected colleagues. This
approach ensures that only authorized users can access sensitive data,
fulfilling partner and regulatory requirements for information partitioning
and security.
- PGP Desktop Email
Delivers all the encryption functionality necessary
for protecting an organization’s email communications in a single, easyto-
use and easy-to-manage solution.
- PGP Whole Disk Encryption
Locks down the entire contents of a
laptop, desktop, external drive, or USB flash drive, including boot sectors,
system, and swap files.
- PGP NetShare
Extends file server access controls to include strong
end-to-end encryption, allowing content owners or security administrators
to specify access rights for groups or individuals.
- PGP Encryption Platform–Enabled
PGP Desktop Corporate is a PGP Encryption Platform–enabled application.
The PGP Encryption Platform provides a strategic enterprise encryption
framework for shared user management, policy, and provisioning, automated
across multiple, integrated encryption applications. As a PGP Encryption
Platform–enabled application, PGP Desktop Corporate can be used with
PGP Universal™ Server to manage existing policies, users, keys, and configurations,
expediting deployment and policy enforcement. PGP Desktop
Corporate can also be used in combination with other PGP encryption
applications to provide multiple layers of security.
- PGP Universal Server Management
PGP Desktop Corporate can be centrally deployed and managed
when used with PGP Universal Server (optional), enabling organizations
to easily set and enforce data security polices throughout
the enterprise.
- Centrally enforced security policy
Automatically enforces
protection of sensitive data and email using security policies
driven by an existing corporate directory.
- Extensible protection
Allows management of any other PGP
Encryption Platform–enabled application.
Benefits
- Easy, Automatic Operation
Once PGP Desktop Corporate is deployed, its operation is
completely transparent—users simply continue to work as
usual. The software automatically protects email and local and
shared information according to policy, ensuring that users
never forget to secure confidential data.
- Single sign-on
Provides simplified login experience using
existing Windows’ password.
- Encryption that follows the file
Ensures that files stay
encrypted locally, on the server, and in backups.
- Automatic messaging security
Automatically encrypts,
decrypts, digitally signs, and verifies email messages
according to individual or centrally managed policies.
- Enforced Security Policies
Security policy configured in PGP Universal Server ensures
that data and email messages are secured automatically,
without requiring changes in user behavior.
- Protect data by application policy
Enforce
encryption for desktop applications, securing documents
wherever stored or used.
- Expanded device security policy
Limit access to
systems after failed pre-boot authentication login attempts.
- Client controls
Enable the organization
to better meet security requirements by locking down which
features are enabled, visible to the user, and enforced.
- Status logging & reporting
Tracks and reports on the
state of protection in the organization to satisfy regulatory
requirements and help prevent a data breach.
- Strong authentication options
Perform pre-boot authentication
using smart cards such as the RSA SID800.
- Accelerated Deployment
Used together, PGP Desktop Corporate and PGP Universal
Server’s unified management console establish, enforce, and
update security policy in real time. This combination reduces the
time and effort required to deploy comprehensive data encryption.
- Reduced Operation Costs
With PGP Desktop Corporate, no special training is required for
end users. This approach accelerates deployment time, reduces
training costs, and avoids any increase in help desk calls.
