If you work on M.O.D sites all computers and pda's must use BeCrypt

Flagstone
Becrypt
SafeBoot

Hate safeboot though

Been looking at their hardware encrpyted disks lately, hoping to find something that easier on the admin than a software solution.

What pdas do they use as afaik only certain BlackBerry models and versions are CESG approved?

We use Bit locker and PGP if requested by the client.

PGP in particular seems to be a very good product from an end user's point of view.

We are in the process of switching all our engineers over to using Intemec CN3's but still use HP iPAQ's on some sites.

We've got a mix of two :
CheckPoint
DriveCrypt

I personally prefer Checkpoint.

Those CN3s are quite cool little units

DO NOT BE TEMPTED BY SAFEBOOT

We threw away Safeboot licenses (a lot of ££) and deployed PGP. Don't make the same mistake its an awful awful product.

The original Safeboot was awesome. The new one now that it has been bough by McAffee is shoddy

Yeah they are not bad, I did enjoy throwing them in the air and watching them crash to ground and them not breaking

Has anyone tried the new version? I'm in the process of piloting EEPC 5 but wondering whether to sack it off and go straight to 6.

I've got ePO 4.5 in place which I understand EEPC 6 fully integrates with but I've not seen or used the interface yet.
