GFI EndPointSecurity 2012

GFI EndPointSecurity 2012 (Build 20111116) offers the following Improvements:

Volume Encryption - For maximum security, GFI EndPointSecurity can be configured to encrypt storage devices. The encryption feature has the following characteristics:
- Traveler application that enables users to access encrypted content when away from the office, without installing GFI EndPointSecurity. Ability to control who is allowed to use the Traveler application.
- Availability of a master administrator password that enables the recovery of encrypted data if the user forgets the user password used for the encryption process.
- No encryption key management required
- Ability to apply encryption enforcement to specific users only, or all users with certain exceptions
- An additional report containing the failed attempts to access encrypted devices
Product Auto Update - To keep GFI EndPointSecurity up to date the application can check for new updates on the GFI website, download and install the updates automatically
Database Roll Over - Enables GFI EndPointSecurity to divide the data into multiple databases within the same SQL server. When the source database exceeds the specified size, it creates a new database; This is especially useful when using the Microsoft SQL Express editions which have a database size limitation.
