Re: Laptop whole disk encryption

[Dan Han/HSC/VCU <s2dhan () VCU EDU>]

We are using Credant mobile guardian for endpoint encryption. We have 
reviewed a hand full of other products before going with Credant, the 
biggest reasons for choosing Credant is that from our testing, Credant 
generated the least user impact and offered best compatibility with 
varying device models from multiple manufacturers.

We currently use McAfee?s Safeboot/Endpoint Encryption software to encrypt 
our users laptops. Our PC Hardware folks do not like McAfee, we did when 
it was not owned by McAfee but you know how that goes.
 
Anyway, I have been tasked when helping to find a possible replacement. 
What software package are you using to encrypt your users laptops. Or for 
that matter, if you are not, what is your rational.
