Manufacturing

Many manufacturers must protect not only customer data, but also valuable intellectual property (IP) stored on laptops, desktops and other locations across their enterprise. As the manufacturing industry continues to globalize, sensitive data including personal identifiable information (PII) as well as IP is put at risk of exposure through traveling executives and engineers, outsourced development and production, subcontractors and many others that may interact with this sensitive data. Public companies are often also subject to data protection and retrieval regulations found in legislation like the Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) Act [USA].

SecureDoc enables manufacturers to reliably and transparently protect PII and IP across an enterprise that spans multiple geographies, user types and organizational structures. 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. It is not enough to have encryption deployed in order to protect the enterprise – from a compliance and risk/exposure standpoint you must be able to PROVE that a lost laptop or USB thumb drive was encrypted. Audit trails and forensic support means that SecureDoc can help you prove encryption was implemented.

What can SecureDoc do for Manufacturers?
SecureDoc delivers a complete data security solution including government-grade encryption that reliably and transparently protects intellectual property and PII throughout the enterprise. SecureDoc gives manufacturers the ability to deploy encryption across the enterprise in a secure and auditable fashion without affecting productivity.
