Data Encryption Systems (DES), a UK-based software copyright protection and data encryption provider, has introduced new DESlock+ Enterprise Server.
The new DESlock+ Enterprise Server brings cloud-based management to endpoint encryption, allowing centralised control of encryption keys and policy beyond the perimeter of corporate networks.
The offering allows companies to extend encryption security policy to include home and mobile networks by allowing users to send updates on key management through the cloud, said the company.
In addition, the new offering is browser-based and available to multiple users, and can be used by Administrators with full access to Encryption policy settings and encryption keys or help-desk users who are limited to user recovery and remotely resetting passwords.
The offering features include: web-based user interface; internet connection; licence management; encryption key management; encryption policy management; and assured security.
DES managing director David Tomlinson said end-point encryption is targeted at mobile workers using laptops and USB flash drives, as it allows users to protect their data even from remote locations, ensuring they are meeting data protection and compliance requirements at all times.
"However end-point encryption still often relies on users connecting to a corporate network to manage their encryption keys and software policy, which can cause an issue for users who are seldom in the office," Tomlinson said.
"By moving the deployment component into the cloud all connections from client and server become outgoing, making it easy for any organisation to remotely manage endpoint encryption, meeting regulatory conditions and completing security audits along the way."
