Check Point Endpoint Security Adds Full Disk Encryption for the Mac Platform
Check Point® Software Technologies Ltd.
(Nasdaq:CHKP), the worldwide leader in securing the Internet, today
announced the release of Check Point Full Disk Encryption™
for Mac OS X, the industry’s first full-disk
encryption solution with pre-boot authentication to support the Mac OS.
Check Point Full Disk Encryption now supports all major laptop and
desktop operating systems, including Mac OS X version 10.4.5 "Tiger”
through Mac OS X version 10.5 "Leopard.”
Check Point encryption products support more end-user platforms than any
other solutions in the industry, from Windows, Linux and Mac OS based
laptops to Symbian, Windows Mobile, Palm and PocketPC based smartphones
and PDAs. Today, regardless of the operating systems, customers receive
encryption technology from Check Point that is recognized as a data
security leader in the latest Gartner Mobile Data Protection Magic
Quadrant.
"Enterprises and organizations have to secure
100 percent of their laptops and desktops to be fully protected,”
said Bob Egner vice president of product management at Check Point. "Check
Point recognizes that Mac OS has an important and growing place in the
enterprise and is proud to offer enterprise customers endpoint solutions
that cover all platforms and work in mixed environments.” "We're delighted that Mac users in industries
like government and healthcare who value high-quality encryption
technologies have a strong solution that supports Leopard, the world's
most advanced operating system,” said Ron
Okamoto, Apple's vice president of Worldwide Developer Relations. "Leopard
is Apple's most secure OS release ever, and Check Point's encryption
solution nicely complements features already present in Mac OS X.”
Check Point Full Disk Encryption is quick and easy to deploy, scales to
any size organization and is proven in every type of industry and
government agency around the world. Customers benefit from easy to use
features and centralized management across diverse operating systems,
significantly simplifying the implementation and use of full-disk
encryption in mixed environments.
"Rarely will large-scale businesses and
organizations have just one endpoint operating system,”
said Steve Snider, president at Cadre Computer Resources Co. "Security
solutions, like Check Point Full Disk Encryption, that support multiple
platforms not only are easier to deploy and manage, but improve the
level of end point security throughout the organization.”
Features and benefits of Check Point Full Disk Encryption include:
Industry-leading full-disk encryption protects lost or stolen data
Pre-boot authentication requires username and password before the
operating system loads, increasing security
Automatic and transparent operation has minimal effect on end users’
productivity
Centralized management simplifies setup and administration, providing
lowest total cost of ownership
Multi-certified cryptography engine addresses adherence to state and
federal privacy laws
Scalable deployment meets the needs of any size enterprise, business
or government agency
"Whether a mixed environment consisting of
Windows, Linux and Mac based computers or a network comprised of a
single OS, Check Point Full Disk Encryption provides total security to
customers with the industry’s leading
encryption technology,” concluded Egner. More
