McAfee Data Protection Suite for Rights Management

McAfee Data Protection Suite for Rights Management Overview:

McAfee Data Protection Suite for Rights Management automatically discovers sensitive data and applies policy-based usage restrictions to safeguard critical information wherever it resides. McAfee’s data loss prevention technologies combined with Adobe’s LiveCycle Rights Management ES2 provides a comprehensive data protection solution that allows only authorized information to leave your organization. Data Protection Suite for Rights Management boosts control over your most business-critical data, and ensures you can safely work with partners, suppliers, and customers without worrying about data loss.

Description:

When data leaves your organization, you don’t have to lose control over it. Data breaches attributed to third parties are on the rise, but you can combat this information loss with McAfee Data Protection Suite for Rights Management. It merges McAfee data loss prevention technologies with Adobe LiveCycle ES2 Rights Management to provide comprehensive protection for your digital assets in a single solution.

Data sent to customers, suppliers, or partners can often end up in the wrong hands. For example, what happens to proprietary company information included in a RFP, after the bidding process is over? How do you ensure that service or training manuals are not only kept up to date, but also aren’t accessed by former students or former technicians? How do insurers safeguard sensitive patient data inadvertently sent to the wrong recipient?

Enter Data Protection Suite for Rights Management. It boosts control over your data even after it leaves your network, helping to avoid costly and damaging data loss, and keep you compliant. The solution automatically discovers sensitive data on your local drives, without requiring any user interaction, eliminating inefficiencies inherent with manual process-based data protection solutions. It then instantly applies policy-based usage restrictions by accessing the Adobe LiveCycle server to implement access rules that are based on your information security policies. Digital rights management protects files against unauthorized access, regardless of where the file resides or how it is distributed. User access rights are defined by individual, job title, job function, and other parameters.

The solution works with Adobe Reader and Microsoft Office. Native support for PDF documents gives you instant support for hundreds of millions of users globally. And since hundreds of document types can be converted into PDF files, you get nearly ubiquitous file protection that works anytime and anywhere. McAfee Data Protection Suite for Rights Management offers complete flexibility in data control. It covers data distributed via email, the web, and USB drives, so you can safely exchange information with partners, suppliers, and customers, without worrying about data loss.

With powerful and flexible policy controls, you can keep tabs on all of your data in the field and modify rights as needed. For example, revoke a service manual that is outdated or instantly change rights to eliminate user access to a file. Rest assured that unsecured data cannot leave your network, since all files must have a rights management policy.

And it's all centrally managed through McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator (ePO)—a single management console—giving you immediate visibility, actionable reports, and streamlined reporting for compliance. With simplified data management, robust digital asset protection, and flexible policy controls, you can confidently exchange information with third parties outside the enterprise—without worrying about the security of your most sensitive data.
