Enhanced Encryption Policies
With PGP Universal Server, administrators can define polices for multiple encryption applications, including gateway email, full disk encryption, removable media, and network file encryption.
- Tailor email encryption policies based on content, delivery method, sender and/or recipient, and other message details.
- Exercise extensive control over mail flow and encryption handling using enhanced Mail Policy.
- Assign multiple sets of policies to different groups, allowing organisations to tailor encryption policies to meet their audit, data security, and organisational requirements.
Single Web-Based Administrative Console
PGP Universal Server’s unified, Web-based administrative interface provides:
- Access to user, key, and policy management in addition to system monitoring and reporting
- Role-based administration, enabling organisations to distribute administration functions while maintaining access polices
Enterprise Integration
PGP Universal Server can optionally leverage investments made in systems such as enterprise directories, PKIs, email hygiene and outbound content compliance solutions, and systems management tools.
- Broad standards support and robust integration help PGP Universal Server accelerate deployment time.
Clustering for Business Continuity
Multiple PGP Universal Servers can be clustered to make administration, enforcement, logging, and policy updates available, without interruption, throughout the enterprise and out to customers and partners.
Logging, Monitoring, & Reporting
Encryption events are logged with PGP Universal Server and made accessible through the Web-based administrative console. System monitoring is accessible via the Web administrative interface and SNMP.
Managed Client Deployment
For managed client encryption applications, PGP Universal Server supports the generation of client installers directly from the Web-based administrative console:
- Microsoft Windows and Apple Mac OS X client installers
- Generates MSI distributions compatible with systems management tools such as Microsoft SMS
Supports Long-Term Data Access & Retention
PGP Universal Server provides optional corporate access to encrypted data across managed applications.
- Patented PGP Additional Decryption Key (ADK) technology enables corporate access (according to policy) to encrypted files, emails, and network file servers when required by regulatory mandates.
- For PGP Whole Disk Encryption, users and administrators can quickly regain access to a system with a one-time-use passphrase.
Lower Operational Costs
PGP Universal Server allows administrations to configure encryption policies through a single interface so they can focus on other critical tasks, reducing operational costs.
- Eliminates the need for multiple training sessions, accessing multiple consoles, setting different policies through different interfaces, and applying updates to each managed client
Address Risk Exposure & Inconsistent Policies
With a common and consistent interface, PGP Universal Server allows administrators to define a tailored set of encryption policies for all encryption applications. This approach reduces the often overlooked risk of inadequate and inconsistent policies by:
- Reducing the potential for misconfiguration
- Centralising control and management
- Providing consistent policy definitions and enforcement
Tackle Evolving Audit Requirements
As audit requirements continue to evolve, PGP Universal Server enables administrators to stay focused on additional projects while delivering the flexibility and configurations needed. PGP Universal Server’s centrally defined and enforced policies, logging, and reporting reduce the time needed to validate and audit multiple encryption applications.
Build for Tomorrow’s Needs
As the foundation of the PGP Encryption Platform architecture, PGP Universal Server provides an extensible framework that allows businesses to:
- Proactively plan for the services needed tomorrow and adapt as required
- Use integrated applications from leading third-party software vendors such as the PGP Support Package for BlackBerry developed by Research In Motion (RIM)
