New Feature Provides Automated Disk Encryption to Secure Corporate Data


MINNEAPOLIS, MN--(Marketwired - Jan 21, 2014) - JAMF Software, the leader in Apple device management, today announced automation for FileVault 2 disk encryption for the Casper Suite. As Apple continues to grow in the enterprise, JAMF's Casper Suite is embracing Apple technologies to ensure Macs are able to meet corporate security standards. This new feature provides organizations with an automated way to ensure corporate data is secure and encrypted in Mac environments.

More than ever, security in the workplace has to be reliable, consistent and enforceable. FileVault 2's full disk encryption provides peace of mind that data is secure. The Casper Suite extends this native technology, providing a seamless end-user experience, while offering administrators reporting and compliance adherence options. Key features include:

  • Configuration - Automatic deployment and setup of FileVault 2 disk encryption technologies
  • Reporting - Provides administrators and security teams with a high level, or granular views of the overall security of Mac environments
  • Remediation - Remotely lock or wipe a compromised device on the network; Ability to reissue an encryption key if reporting is compromised

JAMF's proven track record of supporting Apple's rapid release cycles enables end users to update to the latest Apple OS with the Casper Suite, most recently OS X Mavericks. The Casper Suite offers a full security solution that goes beyond disk encryption by ensuring corporate data is secure on Macs, in transit to and from a device and between corporate applications -- whether they are on or off the corporate network.
