SecureTower – still more opportunities for employee supervision

The new version of SecureTower system, created for confidential data leak protection, features extended functionality to control process and application activity on endpoints.

One of the main advantages of SecureTower as compared with the traditional functionality of DLP systems is complex approach to the economical security of a company. The rich functionality for data leak protection is accompanied with a whole bunch of tools for in-depth control of employees’ activity on their workplaces.

The new version of SecureTower provides a complete picture of each employee’s workday using the module of endpoint activity analysis, which displays the periods of computer’s activity and idle time since boot-up till shutdown in a vivid graphical form.

SecureTower system generates detailed reports on every employee’s network activities. Moreover, the reporting system is interactive, which allows monitoring the development of events in the information field of a company in real time.

Those possibilities are innovative for DLP solutions.

Apart from that, SecureTower is effective in the data leak prevention and provides supplementary possibilities both for the investigation of any previous security breaches, and for the localization and prevention of the potential ones.
