Take control of all the removable data storage devices and media in your organization. Imation Defender enables organizations to control, manage and audit their removable data storage devices.
Imation provides a full range of encrypted, tamper-resistant and biometric flash drives. But unlike other vendors their approach to securing removable storage is not tied to purchasing proprietary hardware. Imation and Proficio can secure any media, including USB drives, CDs, Optical media and more.
With this powerful web-based software application administrators can:
- Set policies for users, removable device types (e.g. USB flash drives, external hard drives, iPods, or individual devices, based on brand, model or serial number), passwords, off-network usage, encryption, or device usage
- Block files by or type that represent risks of data leaks or virus/malware propagation
- Retain an audit trail of what files are stored and used on removable drives and media, plus details on where files are copied to from the removable device
- Remotely revoke devices exposed through theft or loss
- Recover lost or forgotten passwords without exposing the passwords to the help desk administrators
- Pre-establish offline usage policies that disable devices from being used off the network after a predefined period
