Overview
Sophos SafeGuard encrypts content as soon as it is created. The encryption is always on, allowing for seamless and secure collaboration. Synchronized Encryption proactively protects your data by continuously validating the user, application, and security integrity of a device before allowing access to encrypted data. This method of always-on protection goes everywhere your data goes, making it the most comprehensive data security solution on the market.
Always-on encryption protects data everywhere
Sophos SafeGuard Encryption Enterprise is data-centric, automatically securing content upon creation. Once encrypted, files remain secured when shared across platforms and devices, or if they
are emailed or uploaded to cloud-based file sharing programs such as Box, Dropbox, or OneDrive. This method promotes secure collaboration everywhere, working across device
and platforms without compromising security and preventing accidental data leakage.
Transparent encryption ensures user productivity
Encrypting, decrypting, and accessing information is automatic and transparent to the end user. Your users can open an encrypted file, edit it, or share it internally as they normally
would. For externally sharing, decryption or creating password protected files takes only one click.
Proactively protects data against data theft
SafeGuard Encryption has the ability to intelligently protect your data against theft. It automatically encrypts your content, and the content stays encrypted even when it’s shared
or uploaded to a cloud-based, file-sharing system.
Synchronized Encryption continuously validates the user, application, and device integrity. If your data ever ends up in the wrong hands, SafeGuard renders the information unusable;
the files remain encrypted and unreadable.
Protect Data Everywhere, Automatically
- Full Disk Encryption: Sophos SafeGuard encrypts content as soon as it’s created. And with the encryption always on, you can enjoy seamless secure collaboration.
- File Encryption: Encrypt files individually. They’ll remain encrypted even when transferred to a shared folder, removable USB stick, or the cloud.
- Automatic and Transparent: Encrypting, decrypting, and accessing information is automatic and transparent to the end user.
- Prevent Data Loss: Intelligently protect your data against theft, hacking malware, and accidental data loss.
Real-time threat protection
SafeGuard Enterprise offers Synchronized Encryption by connecting to Sophos Endpoint Protection. The SafeGuard local agent listens to an endpoint’s Security Heartbeat™ and
enables automated, proactive protection. For example, in the event of an active infection, the SafeGuard agent can temporarily revoke the encryption keys, proactively protecting your
data against threats. As soon as the security health of the device is restored, the SafeGuard Management Center pushes the encryption keys back to that device, restoring access to
encrypted data.
