Overview:
- Internationally recognized encryption standards for fulldisk encryption of NTFS, FAT and FAT32
- Prevention from hackers from getting confidential data while computers are in hibernation mode
- Permissions that allow only authorized users to read encrypted data, even if the hard drive is removed
- Fast initial encryption option that encrypts only the parts of your hard drive in use so it won't slow your users down
- OPAL self-encrypting hard drives and two factor authentication through non-crypto token and biometric fingerprint at pre-boot2 support
Sophos SafeGuard Easy keeps all the data stored on laptops and desktop computers safe without getting in the way of your users' productivity. If a computer is lost or stolen, full-disk encryption prevents anyone from reading the data. So your users can take their computers anywhere without fear of a data breach or compliance problems.

Simplify set up and maintenance
Our Policy Editor lets you quickly create your initial security configuration policies. If you need to update the initial policies after deployment, you can use any standard software management tools to modify and reapply your policies.
Install quickly and remotely
For central, unattended installation, use standard MSI packages to deploy SafeGuard Easy to users' computers:
We make network rollout easy because there's no end user involvement during installation
You'll save time by choosing the fast initial encryption option, which only encrypts areas of a disk partition that are in use
