Device Control for Microsoft® System Center
Historically, in order to enjoy the security benefits of an advanced device control solution, System Center customers would have to deploy a secondary infrastructure (server, console, agents) and incur the delays, disruption, and costs associated with implementing a solution from scratch. Now System Center customers can easily enforce device/port control and data encryption policies without requiring new infrastructure and without additional administration overhead.
Lumension Device Control for System Center Provides Device / Port Access and Data encryption Policy Enforcement Capabilities to Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM) Customers.
By centrally managing, deploying, enforcing and monitoring device/port access and file transfer/encryption policies via the already established SCCM environment, Microsoft SCCM customers can significantly reduce implementation costs and quickly enhance their security policy enforcement.
With Lumension Device Control for System Center, current SCCM customers can:
- Minimise data loss or theft by enforcing removable storage device/media usage policies
- Prevent unauthorised removable storage devices from connecting to organizational endpoints
- Automatically encrypt critical information on removable storage devices (e.g., USB flash drives) and media (e.g., CDs/DVDs)
- Prevent introduction of malware via removable storage devices (one method used to spread the Conficker worm)
Lumension Device Control for System Center integrates into the SCCM environment, eliminating the need for a separate server console and leveraging previously established system and user groups. This enables faster deployment, eliminating the acquisition and implementation costs related to "server sprawl", and reducing the training costs and productivity hits associated with new software.
