Symantec Encryption

We used this for our customers from car dealerships that dealt with credit histories, etc, through healthcare providers. It worked well to auto encrypt specific criteria. I would recommend to any company the use of Symantec Endpoint. From the ease of use for end users to the auto encrypt policies, this software is worth a try.

• We can manage and view the status of each client from a centralized server.
• It sync passwords with the local Windows account so there are no additional passwords the user needs to remember.
• Our help desk is able to use the One-time password feature if the passwords get out of sync and the user is locked out.

Incentivized

• User Interface
• Global Management
• Password Changes can be slow, and are confusing for end users. Perhaps a prompt to remind them to use their older credentials?
• New users complain about slowness due to the first time encryption process. This is to be expected. A on-screen notification to the end user encryption is currently happening would be nice.
• We require check-in every 60 days. Sometimes even though the device has been on the network the device fails to check in with the SEE manager.
• Cannot manage disks once drives have been encrypted. This is a part of the design but annoying. We twice had to expand out-of-space drives and could not due to the encryption. We had to decrypt the entire drive and then re-encrypt to perform this task.

Back in the day, Norton was one of the choices in the company; while now Symantec is being used as default in the global organization due to its advantages against the alternatives. Very briefly, Symantec provides more benefits especially when considered as a business-level solution.

• Allows our helpdesk staff to help users who forget their encryption passhprase or need other help with things
• Provides ease of mind for management with them knowing all devices are encrypted
• Easy to use for our end users
