SecureDoc for Government

How can a government organization easily and rapidly defend the data for a temporary remote office?

What can a government organization mandated to encrypt tens of thousands of laptops and desktops do to control the cost of compliance?

A common access card (smartcard) is mandated for use from “door to desk” – what can a government organization do to meet this mandate without a long and painful implementation?

Government sector organizations are stewards for an incredible amount of personal identifiable information (PII), including health, tax and social insurance information of private citizens. Encryption of data-at-rest is a critical part of the information security architecture that must be in place to safeguard the PII of the citizens served by government organizations. The government sector is also under intense scrutiny over its handling of this sensitive data, and must be above reproach in its technology, methods and standards when it comes to data security.

That’s where SecureDoc comes in.

SecureDoc is known internationally as an encryption solution that is trusted by some of the most demanding and security-conscious government organizations in the world. SecureDoc enables government organizations to reliably and auditably protect PII and other sensitive data collected in the course of public service. With the ability to synchronize users, encryption keys, key files, and group files with Active Directory means that authorized users across the enterprise can access and share data (with variable access levels) with NO PASSWORDS REQUIRED, while keeping the sensitive data fully secure; this is critical for maintaining a low cost of ownership without sacrificing the ability to meet the needs of the public.

SecureDoc is deployed in many leading Government organizations around the world, including the US Department of State, the US Department of Homeland Security, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, the US Internal Revenue Service (IRS), Staatsministerium Baden-Württemberg [Germany]
