Re: Mac encryption?

["Jones, Dan" <Dan.Jones () UMASSMED EDU>]

With OSX, the included encryption tool only encrypts data that is stored in the user's folder. This leaves too much to 
chance, so we are extending our PointSec deployment to the Macs. 

Apparently CheckPoint has worked out the incompatabilities that PointSec had with Snow Leopard (as has most everyone 
else).

We're coming up on our Checkpoint renewal.  I'm curious what folks are using for Apple hardware encryption.  Are you 
using the built-in product or something extra such as PointSec?
