I would certainly go for Safeboot hard disk encryption Easy to manage which is very important towards users as they will be your assurance East to link with an active directory / ldap environment I evaluated Safeboot, Pointsec, Safeguard (Utimaco) and Safeboot I defentively the best www.safeboot.com Hugo Deckx Computer Forensic Manager -----Original Message----- From: listbounce () securityfocus com [mailto:listbounce () securityfocus com] On Behalf Of Andrea Sent: donderdag 8 maart 2007 20:32 To: security-basics () securityfocus com Subject: Re: Hard disk Encryption Why don't you have a look at Fox IT Control http://www.foxt.com/products/it_controls.html The part of the software dedicated to workstation control allows you to 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
