DISK Protect is a software security solution for Windows Laptop and Desktop computers. DISK Protect is available in a corporate version (DISK Protect), and in two government versions (DISK Protect Baseline and DISK Protect Enhanced), which are CAPS-approved to Baseline and Enhanced grade, respectively. Note that these products are only available to organisations that have obtained sales approval.
All versions of DISK Protect provide:
Pre-boot authentication. DISK Protect authenticates the user by password, or by password and token. If the user fails authentication, he or she is prevented from logging in to Windows and the data of the machine remains secure. DISK Protect and DISK Protect Baseline also provide a mechanism (Challenge-Response) which allows an authorised user, with the aid of an Administrator, to unlock the computer and log into Windows without compromising data security. DISK Protect then forces a password change.
Full-disk encryption. When first installed, DISK Protect encrypts the computer's hard disk(s). From then on, data is decrypted and encrypted on the fly and applications can be used as normal. If, however, the hard disk is removed from the machine, and the thief attempts to access the data by bypassing User Authentication, its contents are unintelligible.
Please Note:
These products are non-returnable once ordered.

Dual-factor authentication. DISK Protect supports dual factor authentication by Aladdin eToken and password, or by Smart card and PIN.

Dual-factor authentication. DISK Protect Baseline supports dual factor authentication by Aladdin R2 eToken and password.
Challenge-Response. Under some circumstances, an authorised user may, with the help of an Administrator, use Challenge-Response to unlock a machine following authentication failure. See S(E)N 05/06 for guidance.
DISK Protect Enhanced
DISK Protect Enhanced (formerly sold as Serco Data Sentry) is a full-disk encryption solution for Laptop and Desktop computers running Windows. DISK Protect Enhanced is CAPS approved to Enhanced grade.
Boot-time authentication. DISK Protect Enhanced authenticates the user by user name, password and personalised touch token. Up to four separate user accounts can be created on each protected PC.
Full-disk encryption. DISK Protect Enhanced fully encrypts all drives and data using evaluated encryption algorithms approved by CESG for UK Government use. Encryption is automatic and transparent to the user; overhead is minimal, with little or no noticeable impact on system performance. The Encryption Key may be updated (if required) whilst the system is in operation. Data may be exchanged via encrypted removable media, including Floppy disk and Zip drives. Users may import Transport Keys for use with removable media.
Recovery facility. A recovery diskette may optionally be generated during installation which allows an administrator to start up the computer without the touch token or password and to perform disk repairs.
