Laptop Tracking
The Challenge: Laptop computer theft is one of the top three computer crimes, according to CSI/FBI. Laptop theft is also a leading cause of data breach, according to Symantec and the Ponemon Institute. “An average data breach costs $5 million”.
The Technology:eCompliantz Trace is a remote data destruction and laptop tracking software that protects your data and helps your organization comply with data protection regulations. It emails you the precise location of your laptop, which can then be pinpointed using GPS technology, and also lets you permanently destroy your sensitive data in the laptop via a remotely issued command to prevent unauthorized access or data breach.
Features:
- Accurate worldwide laptop tracking
- In case of laptop theft, permanently destroy data with a remote command.
- Complies with US Department of Defense clearing and sanitizing standard DOD 5220.22-M
- 100% protection of your privacy without sacrificing tracking abilities
Description:
Encryption is necessary for data protection, but it is powerless to protect data against an inside thief who has the key or password. CSI/FBI says that much of computer crime is the result of an inside job. Encryption alone does not guarantee data security. When a laptop is stolen, the data must be verifiably destroyed to protect data and reduce corporate liability related to data breaches. The stolen laptop should be recovered to determine whether the data has been breached and the suspect should be arrested for an investigation. eCompliantz Trace software:
- helps protect data and recover stolen laptops,
- helps locate the thief.
- can be used to wipe all data at the end of laptop lifecycle.
- Uses US Department of Defense clearing and sanitizing standard (DOD 5220.22-M) to ensure that data is securely destroyed.
Data security cannot be achieved without data confidentiality and data integrity. No monitoring staff to access or browse data files or install software.
