Have you consiered PGP Whole Disk Encryption? Easy to use, transparent to the user.

encrypt part of the file systems using a group or a personal encryption
key so that you can have different roles with different keys (accounting people, technicians, help desk etc..) and a user-personal encrypted folders at the same time. With group encryption keys only members of the specific group can have access to the docs in the encrypted folders, and that's good I think (e.g. tech people don't need
to know your ridicolous salary ;) ). You can even have encrypted share folders (e.g. on a file server) and all docs are encrypted/decrypted on-fly on the end point (so they "travel" encrypted on you LAN).You can
manage all the groups/keys quite easily from a centralized server and
you don't need to be a high-encryption-skilled guy actually.
I installed it few times on customers site when the software was RSA-then-TFS branded and the finally bought it.

I have tested various facets (Encryption, management, installation, data recovery, etc) of both the tools and both appear to be equally
good.
Since i do not have much knowledge of hard disk encryption, i wanted to
know which tool is more effective and easy to manage.Or infact any other good hard disk encryption tool in your knowledge. I want to implement the tool in client server architecture for easy management. would appreciate some comments. regards Xaya _____________________________________________________________ --- http://mail.secureroot.com/ - free mailbox for hackers and geeks
