Benefits of Netwrix Endpoint Protector for Different Industries
1. DLP for Financial Companies and Banking
Protection against leakage of confidential financial data from endpoint devices through applications, browsers, artificial intelligence tools, and removable media.
The solution allows banks to comply with strict data processing policies and meet PCI DSS regulatory requirements and other compliance requirements. Based on this, DLP helps reduce the risk of operational disruptions, regulatory penalties, and reputational damage caused by data security violations.
2. DLP for Government Institutions
For government institutions, Netwrix Endpoint Protector provides comprehensive protection of official and confidential information against leaks through data transfer channels. The solution allows centralized control over the use of external media, automatic data encryption, and detection of sensitive information on workstations. DLP ensures compliance with audit and data protection requirements and supports different types of installation, even in a critical closed architecture.
3. DLP for IT Companies
The main advantages of DLP Netwrix Endpoint Protector for software development companies are source code protection by programming language. Technical documentation and other intellectual property will be protected against leakage through USB devices, cloud services, web applications, messengers, and AI tools. The solution provides data transfer control based on content and context and supports flexible policies for remote employees, contractors, and BYOD scenarios. Thanks to support for Windows, macOS, and Linux, it easily integrates into heterogeneous development environments without significantly affecting team workflows.
License package options
Device Control
Device control is the first layer of defense for organizations that want to protect sensitive data from being lost via USB drives, Bluetooth connections, printers, and other removable media.
Control over 40 different classes of devices; including USB drives, external hard drives, card readers, printers, Bluetooth devices, webcams, smartphones, and more, as well as the ability to apply detailed controls to different types of devices and set policies for different user groups or classes of devices.
Device Control+
Controls data transfers to USB, Bluetooth, printers, and other peripheral ports and automatically encrypts removable media to protect data in transit.
Device Control+ extends the capabilities of the award-winning Netwrix Endpoint Protector Device Control solution, including the option to force 256-bit AES encryption when USB drives are allowed for data sharing and portability.
Active Data Defense
Active Data Defense allows security professionals to monitor, control, and block the transfer of sensitive data from employee devices.
Using content verification and contextual data scanning, sensitive information is protected from unauthorized access and theft through both hardware and software exit points, including removable drives, printers, email clients, corporate messaging applications, browser downloads, and more.
Active Data Defense+
Active Data Defense+ includes Active Data Defense functionality to help protect sensitive information from unauthorized access and theft. It also adds encryption capabilities when data transfer still requires the use of a removable drive.
In these scenarios, Active Data Defense+ includes an option to automatically protect data copied to a USB drive with 256-bit AES encryption to secure it in case of loss or theft.
Enterprise
Enterprise Netwrix Endpoint Protector combines all the functionality of Device Control, Active Data Defense, USB encryption, eDiscovery, and includes comprehensive support and maintenance services to manage configuration, server installation, policy configuration, and ongoing performance optimization.
