MUNICH, Germany, May 24 /PRNewswire/ -- SecurStar's DriveCrypt Plus Pack is a customizable solution for companies and individuals that need to keep confidential information safe on their computers and networks.
It can encrypt the entire computer's operating system, and together with its management console, allows protection of an entire computer network made up of desktop computers and notebooks. The process takes place in real time and at a high security level, using a military strength encryption algorithm.
Companies commonly protect their sensitive data using a variety of means - - from firewalls to even encrypting hard drives -- and yet, they overlook portable network devices such as notebooks, which are the most vulnerable to data breaches.
For these cases, DriveCrypt Plus Pack Enterprise Edition with its management console is the best solution.
The encryption method used by SecurStar (AES 256 Bit) was tested by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and received a classification of "SECURE". AES is a symmetrical algorithm, and is used, for example, by U.S. government agencies for the protection of sensitive data.
With its full disk encryption, the computer's entire hard drive is encrypted and all documents are instantly available, on the fly.
DriveCrypt Plus Pack works differently than most of its competitors. When an encrypted file is accessed, it only deciphers parts of the file. Other products decipher large portions of the hard drive, even to make use of a single document, and thus creating gaps in security.
With DriveCrypt, data is never unprotected.
