Re: U-wide Full-Disk Encryption Costs

["Swick, Forrest" <Forrest.Swick () UNCO EDU>]

We have used Checkpoint in the Past on our Apple Macintosh products and Sophos/Utimaco Safeguard on Windows products.  
With the built in encryption with the newer Apple OSx's and Windows Products we are using the Vendor products with 
their recommended management structure.

We are using McAfee AutoBoot for our workstations and are currently pushing to the enterprise. Laptops are using McAfee 
Preboot full disk encryption. 
Since we own the suite of McAfee products, the prices were not prohibitive given the fines and costs of breach 
reporting when workstations walk away. 
Thanks and Cheers.-grish

We have the university and also an academic medical center and hospital chain.  We had used an encryption product (not 
named) for laptops which costs $60 per license.  It worked great but the cost was prohibitive as we moved to also 
encrypt all PCs.

We have moved to Microsoft Bitlocker with the MBAM console. We have been using it for about 6 months and it is working 
great.  No issues.  And it is part of our enterprise licensing agreement.

We have kept our other licensed product for some non-windows devices.
