Effective security on mobile devices and PCs and for e-mail

As anyone responsible for data security already knows, most company data is either not stored securely or is e-mailed as plain text. Campaigns to secure internal and external communications by using public key infrastructures (PKIs) have so far failed to provide a comprehensive solution.

SafeGuard PrivateCrypto can close these security loopholes. The product can be implemented on all standard mobile device platforms, saving files securely on PDAs, notebooks, and desktop PCs. In addition, users can easily exchange encrypted data by e-mail, and recipients don’t need to have SafeGuard PrivateCrypto installed on their devices, because the files are self-extracting. All the communication partners require for the secure e-mail traffic is the password which they use to encrypt or decrypt the file.

SafeGuard PrivateCrypto provides encryption that is both easy to integrate and to use. It integrates seamlessly in Microsoft Windows Explorer and standard e-mail applications such as Lotus Notes and Microsoft Outlook, so there is no need for expensive upgrades to the existing IT infrastructure. The easily understood functionality in SafeGuard PrivateCrypto means users do not need any additional training. Users can encrypt and save the files they want simply by clicking the right mouse button to activate SafeGuard PrivateCrypto in the context menu.

SafeGuard PrivateCrypto has two other exclusive functions: an easy-to-use password logging provides a handy way to solve the problem of forgotten passwords, and the “secure wipe” function guarantees that original files are removed completely from the storage medium.
