Takeware Gatekeeper

Now you’re back in control!

The not-so-quiet revolution that has brought about the 'iPod Generation' also brings with it a threat that we can no longer ignore - opening the floodgates via a data-highway that is faster than the Internet and has been completely unprotected. This comes in via iPods, smart-phones, pendrives and a plethora of other removable devices, increasingly from people inside as well as outside. This is the biggest threat to many organisations today, big and small, yet has been almost entirely neglected - until now!

Schools, colleges and learning institutions are also increasingly at risk not just from data theft, malware and other dangerous content but also from law suits for breach of copyright and the data protection act – with directors and governors increasingly held personally liable.

Gartner Research has recently drawn attention to this, saying "Organisations are increasingly putting themselves at risk by allowing the unauthorized and uncontrolled use of portable storage devices". “These are ideal for anyone intending to steal sensitive and valuable data. Employees may also be responsible for losing data if they inadvertently mislay these devices. The impact of this goes beyond the commercial value of the data.”

Prevention - better than cure

Takeware® Gatekeeper has been designed ‘from the ground up’ to efficiently monitor, record and actually police both devices and the flow of data onto (and off of) the whole range of portable ‘mass storage devices’. Integrated control and intelligent monitoring removes the need for interventions by scarce and expensive technicians.

Our active system intelligently enforces policies – standalone or across your network - allowing only authorised devices and authorised use. Otherwise remaining virtually invisible while protecting you against the increasingly prevalent attacks from inside as well as outside - allowing safe use of your PCs and their ports and proper use of removable devices, providing convenience and greater efficiency with the security needed you need.

Perfected in some of today’s harshest environments Takeware® Gatekeeper:

Integrates monitoring and active policing of the whole range of portable devices
Allows only ‘authorised’ removable devices to be attached to the PC
Prevents use of Banned Content
Maintains a full audit trail

Passport based ‘Hard Login’: ‘door-pass’ and ‘escorted’ modes are supported. This powerful new feature limits access to a PC and strongly authenticates users.
