iStorage/Kanguru Updated On-Premise Edition to KRMC Remote Management Platform

iStorage Ltd. | Kanguru announces the launch of their updated KRMC (Kanguru Remote Management Console) On-Premise Edition – an advanced, self-hosted solution designed to meet the high-security demands of government, defense, healthcare and other critical sectors.

This latest edition introduces an enhanced and streamlined user interface, making it easier than ever for administrators to manage and monitor secure USB devices across the enterprise.

KRMC is a remote management platform purpose-built for organizations that require strict data protection and regulatory compliance. With KRMC, IT administrators and data security officers can remotely manage and enforce custom security policies on Kanguru Defender hardware-encrypted USB drives – whether they’re deployed in the field, at secure facilities, or across decentralized departments around the globe.

“Kanguru has reimagined the KRMC interface from the ground up with usability in mind,” states Nate Cote, chief growth officer and MD, Kanguru, Americas. “We’ve listened to our customers and delivered a user experience that’s faster, more intuitive, and more powerful – without compromising the security and control they rely on.”

The new On-Premise Edition offers complete control over the deployment, eliminating reliance on 3rd-party cloud services. It’s a solution for government agencies, defense contractors, hospitals, and organizations handling sensitive or classified data. The new, modernized interface dramatically improves the administrative experience, offering intuitive navigation and simplified workflows for key tasks.

Building on the KRMC-Hosted Edition released in August 2024, the new KRMC On-Premise Edition introduces an updated pricing structure with Advanced and Premium tiers, offering more flexible, tailored solutions to meet a wide range of budget considerations and security needs. The On-Premise Premium Edition features the same File Audit capability as KRMC-Hosted Premium — a favorite among administrators — which tracks files added, modified, or removed from Kanguru Defender drives. Notifications appear directly within the KRMC Console when file changes are detected, enabling administrators to actively monitor data streams and quickly identify any suspicious activity.

Kanguru Defender USB drives are FIPS 140-2 Certified, and all models feature AES 256-bit hardware encryption, secure firmware, and TAA Compliance, making them ideal for highly regulated environments. When paired with KRMC, they become part of a policy-driven data protection and remote management ecosystem.

With the ability to oversee 100s or 1,000s of devices from a single dashboard, administrators can ensure compliance with internal policies and external mandates like HIPAA, GDPR, and GLBA – reducing the risk of data breaches.

The KRMC On-Premise Edition is available for deployment.
