Aurora Offers Hosted Disk Encryption
As a SaaS
This is a Press Release edited by StorageNewsletter.com on March 1, 2010 at 3:24 pmAurora Systems Consulting, Inc. has launched Hosted Disk Encryption, a new service which provides affordable protection for the entire contents of laptops, desktops, external drives, CD/DVD or USB flash drives through a software-as-a-service (SaaS) subscription. This service seamlessly encrypts company sensitive data on a month-to-month ‘pay as you grow’ basis. Its purpose is to prevent the loss of sensitive data via physical loss or theft.
Using PGP Whole Disk Encryption technology, this service supports Windows, Mac and Linux platforms. SC Magazine Group reviewed PGP Whole Disk and named it a ‘Best Buy’ winner for ‘features, performance, ease-of-use, documentation, support and value for the money.’
Traditionally, this level of encryption would have taken time and effort from IT staff. With this new service, organizations can take cost-effective and proactive steps towards protecting their data and privacy without the major burden of purchasing, installing, training, and maintaining their own encryption equipment, software and staff.
"Additional equipment, software and consulting services, can be seamlessly replaced with this Aurora service, converting major capital outlays to minimal monthly operating expenses”, said Aurora CEO, Philip de Souza. "We take care of software management, updates, training and support."
