Kaspersky Lab has announced that Forrester Research has rated Kaspersky Lab as a Strong Performer in their evaluation of endpoint encryption solution.
According to The Forrester Wave Endpoint Encryption, Q1 2015, Kaspersky Lab’s endpoint encryption offerings may work well for firms looking to source an all-in-one endpoint security suite at an attractive price point.

Quoting from the report, “Kaspersky Lab’s endpoint encryption solution is unique in that its endpoint encryption offerings are not sold separately from its overall endpoint security suite. Thus, security and operations professionals benefit from a high level of management and policy integration between the two. Its mobile offerings for file level and media encryption are also comprehensive and span its endpoint encryption, file/folder encryption, and media control”.

The companies were selected for Forrester Wave research if they met several criteria: the commercial availability of the encryption component at the time of the study, a combination of several encryption technologies within a single product, more than 1,000 corporate clients (each with more than 1,000 employees), and/or sales of more than one million licenses since the product’s release.

“Encryption effectively mitigates against the risk of corporate data exposure when it is carried or exchanged by employees. As we continue to refine our products, we aim to give our corporate customers reliable yet flexible data protection tools that can easily be adapted to their business objectives,” said Nikita Shvetsov, Chief Technology Officer, Kaspersky Lab.

The encryption solution available as part of Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business is an effective tool to protect corporate data at different levels – folders, files or disks – depending on the client’s requirements. The component can be administered via the centralised management console, which makes it even more convenient to use.
