SanDisk's Tool to Secure USB Flash Drives
By

Mumbai, Apr 22, 2008
SanDisk Corporation has launched version 3.0 of its Central Management and Control (CMC)software, for managing SanDisk's secure Cruzer Enterprise USB flash drives. The product has its own characteristic features, by virtue of which, it transforms portable storage into a mobility and productivity asset.
This, gives IT departments a powerful tool for lifecycle management of Cruzer Enterprise drives - including deployment throughout the organization, password recovery and renewal through the network, central back-up and restore, central usage tracking, and remote termination of lost drives.
Although it is suitable for enterprises, it may be effectively used in other smaller businesses too. According to Etti Berger, product-marketing manager for CMC in SanDisk's Enterprise Division, "CMC is at the center of SanDisk's mission to make flash memory - the preferred solution for authentication, workspace virtualization and endpoint security. We recognize that IT departments aren't interested in new technologies that place additional demands on their time - no matter how compelling in theory. So, we focused on adding features to CMC 3.0 - that reduce the effort required to manage secure flash drives, and therefore allow easy enterprise-wide implementation."
It may be recalled, Cruzer Enterprise protects all files stored on the drive with advanced hardware-based 256-bit AES encryption, and mandatory password protection. Data is doubly protected with Cruzer Enterprise and CMC - files are protected from unauthorized users if the drive is lost or stolen, and the backup feature of CMC makes it simple for the IT department to provision a new drive with the files from the missing drive.
