 Safend - New Security solutions
USB drives are among the most common endpoint security threats, as their portability and high capacity allow for easy data theft or for malicious code to be uploaded quickly. Safend Protector enables full read/write access for enterprise-approved SanDisk USB flash drives (UFDs) and prevents unapproved USB devices from connecting to the laptop or desktop. Safend Protector secures enterprise endpoints from data leakage and penetration through physical and wireless ports including USB, FireWire, WiFi, Bluetooth, Infrared (IrDA), and CD/DVDs, as well as providing data encryption, anti-network bridging capabilities, and protection from hardware keylogging devices.
