What’s new in GFI EndPointSecurity 2012 (1/2)

Volume encryption for removable devices

» When users plug in a USB device with unencrypted data,

GFI EndPointSecurity will encrypt all the contents on the device.

From then on, access to the data will work normally with the added

benefit of being encrypted using a strong AES 128-bit algorithm.

Traveler application

» GFI EndPointSecurity also ships with a program called Traveler

Application, which enables users to access encrypted content when

away from the office, in locations where the GFI EndPointSecurity

agent might not be installed.

What’s new in GFI EndPointSecurity 2012 (2/2)

Product update mechanism

» The product now updates itself automatically via GFI’s servers – this

functionality allows GFI to roll out fixes immediately without troubling

the administrator with downloads and installation of upgrades.

Database maintenance – rollover functionality

» GFI EndPointSecurity already downloads, installs and configures

Microsoft® SQL Server ® Express Edition for its users and it now

removes another administrative headache – database size limits.

Based on the database size limit (4 GB) imposed by SQL Server

Express, the product now also automatically rolls over and starts

report logging in a new database once the original one is full.
