Re: Laptop whole disk encryption

[David Grisham <Dgrisham () SALUD UNM EDU>]

I have to echo Sherry success statement. We do manage with EPO but have not upgraded to the version 6 as it was buggy 
two years ago. We're hoping that the EPO version goes better this time around.

We've been using McAfee\Safeboot for about 5 years now and are very
happy with it.  That may change when we integrate management of the
product into our ePO console.  Having said that, we will be reviewing
Bitlocker as a possible replacement later this year.

Subject: [SECURITY] Laptop whole disk encryption

 
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.
