Contact Renaissance today to find out more and discover how Endpoint Protector can help secure your data. For an overview of what Endpoint Protector delivers read on.

Deliver Regulatory Compliance

One of the major concerns for business leaders in all organisations is ensuring that the data they collect about customers and clients is handled in a way that meets regulatory requirements. The number of different pieces of statutory legislation that are in place is quite large. Especially when looked at from a global perspective and coupled with the fact that many service and online businesses have customers across global regions. It is essential to protect the data to the level required in various jurisdictions.

From a European perspective, CoSoSys Endpoint Protector has functionality that can help deliver data protection to levels required under these regulations:

  • GDPR - Endpoint Protector policies can provide an audit for tracking and reporting on the transfer of data outside of an organisation. For example, to see which accounts are transferring sensitive data. Restrictions can be put in place to prevent that, and also cross-border data transfers.
  • PCI DSS - Endpoint Protector ships with predefined policies to protect credit card details. These policies can be further customised with additional keywords and metadata specific to each organisation's needs.

In addition to the above, Endpoint Protector can also help deliver the requirements for these USA based regulations:

  • CCPA - Similar to GDPR and recently introduced in California. Endpoint Protector tracks use of data protected under CCPA and then using monitoring, filtering, blocking and other remediation features, it guards against confidential information loss.
  • HIPAA - A USA regulation to protect sensitive health data. With Endpoint Protector, you can implement predefined HIPAA policies and reach compliance protecting confidential medical information against leakage through online applications, services and removable devices.
  • NIST - The US National Institute of Standards and Technology publication 800-171 is a set of guidelines and regulations to protect controlled unclassified information (CUI) in non-federal information systems and organisations. Endpoint Protector allows you to protect the confidentiality of CUI at rest, to control the use of removable media on information system components, and to perform file tracking and shadowing on the data in use.
  • GLBA - A US federal bill to protect the information about people stored by financial institutions. Endpoint Protector has the functionality to deliver this protection.

Protection Based on Industry Requirements

Not all industry sectors have the same types of data or requirements to secure it. Even within the various regulatory frameworks that are in place, there are still specific and unique requirements in certain industries. CoSoSys have substantial experience across sectors, and the Endpoint Protector tools can provide for the specific needs in these sectors:

  • Healthcare
  • Education
  • Manufacturing
  • Finance
  • Media

Protect Data Across All Devices

Whether on computers running Microsoft Windows, Apple macOS, a Linux variant, a thin-client device, or on a mobile phone or tablet running iOS or Android, then Endpoint Protector can be deployed to protect the data.

Across all sectors, and generally, Endpoint Protector provides real-time data protection via:

  • Content Aware Protection - Ensures that data does not leave the organisation by being copied to devices, through applications, via online Cloud services, or even as screen captures of sensitive data.
  • Device Control - Manage the use of USB and other portable storage devices and enforce strong security policies to protect data.
  • Enforced Encryption - Keep sensitive data encrypted while on the move on any Windows, macOS and Linux computer. Encryption on iOS and Android mobile devices can be enabled in those devices and monitored via Mobile Device Management.
  • Discovery - Discover, encrypt and delete sensitive data. Full content and context inspection can be done via manual or automatic scans.
  • Mobile Device Management - Gain full control and detailed monitoring of mobile devices and make sure your data is safe. This can also be used to allow users to store data on their own devices and keep it secure if required.

Additionally, Endpoint Protector can prevent the transfer of sensitive data beyond endpoint devices by means such as email, cloud saving, or transferring it to other applications.

Deploy Flexibly Within Existing Infrastructure

Endpoint Protector has a flexible deployment model that will fit into any organisations existing infrastructure. It can be deployed as a hardware appliance that is shipped with the tools installed. Alternatively, a virtual machine deployment can be used to fit Endpoint protector into existing virtualised infrastructure.
