Endpoint Protector Basic: Device Control Security

Key Features of Endpoint Protector Basic

• Endpoint Protector Basic is a standalone device control utility designed to prevent data theft and malware infections via portable storage devices.
• In a security-conscious environment, USB ports are a significant vulnerability; employees can easily copy sensitive files to a thumb drive or accidentally introduce a virus from an unchecked device.
• This software locks down the computer\'s endpoints, ensuring that only authorized devices can connect.
• The software sits in the system tray and monitors all USB and FireWire ports.
• By default, it can block all storage devices, rendering flash drives, external hard disks, and MP3 players invisible to the operating system.
• Administrators can then create a "Allow List" (whitelist) of specific trusted devices based on their unique hardware IDs.
• This means a company-issued encrypted drive will work, but a personal drive brought from home will be rejected.
• Endpoint Protector Basic is designed for small deployments or single workstations, as it does not require a central management server.
• It is password-protected to prevent unauthorized users from uninstalling it or changing the security policy.
• It provides a robust, set-and-forget layer of physical security for kiosks, reception desks, and workstations handling confidential data.
