Re: Streamlined PGP WDE Deployment

We have about 4600 systems deployed in this manner. If you believe that the content of your discussion may be private 
or sensitive, then feel free to contact me off-list. Otherwise, I feel like we could really gain a lot from an open 
discussion on this topic since we operate in different environments with different management structures and processes. 
I know I'm curious about how others are doing things  ;)

Subject: [SECURITY] Streamlined PGP WDE Deployment

All,
We are currently evaluating PGP WDE. While it meets our data recovery requirements and centralized management needs, 
the inclusion of the email component is outside of our scope at this point. If anyone has deployed the PGP WDE 
component is an autonomous (or mostly) manner I would love to speak to you regarding the challenges associated with and 
how they were overcome at your respective institutions.

Thank you,
