Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The most valuable feature of Check Point Full Disk Encryption Software Blade is hard disk protection."
"We never had any complaints about the performance of computers with this tool to be able to manage the protection of disks and drives."
"Its ability to provide a security layer of encryption that allows us to prevent unauthorized access to computers."

"Encryption prevents data loss which can cost the organization a lot of resources."
"It has addressed storage and data transfer demands efficiently."
"The initial setup is easy."

Cons

"The encryption is fast; however, when it comes to generating decryption of the OS disks, it is sometimes very slow, generating a loss of time."
"There are a few cases of security breaches when the networking system fails and can lead to malware attacks. The next release should focus more on data virtualization and support for all computing devices."
"I would like to bring centralized management to mobile devices."
"The tool should be able to recover data from a stolen device."

"They could improve the latency in the platform when entering the portal."
