Avoid data loss:
EU-GDPR compliant:
Predictive whitelisting based on machine learning:
Reporting
With the EU-GDPR, companies must take security measures to protect sensitive data.
DriveLock enables you to meet these requirements. You can encrypt your endpoint devices and receive access records and access control information via the Analytics & Forensics function.
The networking of production plants within the framework of Industry 4.0 has made its protection a key focus.
Attacks on production facilities, critical infrastructures (KRITIS) or devices that do not belong to conventional IT has become a reality in everyday corporate life. According to a BITKOM study, every second company is now threatened by cyber attacks.
Industrial companies are a particular focus here due to the long runtime of approx. 7 to 10 years, security updates (patches, hotfixes etc.) are no longer provided for these systems. Hackers, therefore, target and exploit these security vulnerabilities.
The combination of a device and application control effectively protects the manufacturing process. All interfaces of the PCs involved in production are monitored or blocked. The same applies to the applications used. The Machine Learning Algorithm automatically manages the local whitelist and controls the execution of applications. Nevertheless, service technicians must be able to import software updates, for example, via the USB interfaces of the devices.
One simply plugin the USB stick and follow the user guidelines so all applications can be installed in the production line within a defined time window. Machine Learning then ensures that all executed and copied files are entered into the Whitelist.
If, in addition, access to the USB interfaces is to be further restricted, maintenance can still be carried out efficiently and purposefully via the DriveLock SelfService.
Since all external drives are blocked, one can utilise DriveLock SelfService to grant access to the USB stick. This activates the learning mode. All executed and copied files are automatically whitelisted by DriveLock Machine Learning.
After software maintenance, the production line is protected again. It is no longer possible to run unauthorised applications or use devices without explicit user authorisation.
Increasing third-party risks: The use of sensitive company data by various parties - internal employees, external financial advisors, etc. - entails increased risks for data protection and unwanted data loss
Increased compliance requirements: Introduction of an information security management system based on ISO/IEC 27001 for compliance with legal requirements and internal compliance requirements
Growing number of mobile endpoint devices: Mobile endpoint devices in companies increase the risk potential for data thefts and cyber attacks, and require an endpoint-oriented security concept
Significant increase in cyber attacks: Cyber attacks by organised criminal groups, hackers, activists or even by own employees are growing exponentially
Protect patient data effectively
To improve patient care and meet usage standards, hospitals and healthcare providers are increasingly implementing sophisticated, networked IT systems and utilising electronic patient records (ePAs).
The electronic exchange of information represents a major efficiency advantage for patient care but is also a major challenge for IT security in the healthcare sector - because the large amounts of data with sensitive patient data must be securely protected.
Since April 1, 2017, all critical processes must be reported to the BSI. Not every "critical process" is as obvious as an extortion trojan that encrypts patient data or threatens to steal it.
If, for example, a doctor's laptop with unencrypted, confidential patient or study information is lost, this will be considered an incident that needs to be reported.
Especially critical: Patient data does not have an expiration date. Credit card information, passwords etc. can be blocked, but insurance or identity card numbers cannot.
Effective prevention with DriveLock:
With its security solution, DriveLock is actively involved in the market for more than 15 years. The company with headquarters in Munich, Germany, has become one of the leading IT specialists for IT and data security.
