USB data key theft could have been avoided, says Avanquest

14 June 2007

The theft of a USB key belonging to a Perth and Kinross Council employee, reported in the Perth Advertiser (21 March), could have been prevented with Avanquest’s latest security products, according to the software developer.

ControlGuard’s Endpoint Access Manager program manages all removable media, input/output USB devices and communication interfaces, and offers “complete endpoint security” by controlling, monitoring and logging how information is downloaded and uploaded.

And by combining Endpoint with SanDisk manager — an Avanquest product which centrally deploys tracks, manages and audits the activity of company information stored on corporate drives even after they have left the network — Avanquest is “able to offer the complete solution to protect against data loss, identity theft and malicious intent”.
