Cyberoam Endpoint Data Protection

EPDPEndpoints like desktops and laptops are large repositories of organizational data with hundreds and thousands of them carrying critical product, financial, sales, marketing and employee data. Data transfer from these endpoints over USB devices, applications, printers or through network sharing can lead to loss of confidential information.

Also, modification and deletion of critical files over the endpoint poses a significant threat to data security. Lack of strict policies regarding file and device encryption make removable devices the most critical points of data loss.

Such data breaches can lead to severe financial and legal liabilities to organizations including loss of customer, partner and stakeholder confidence.

Cyberoam Device Management

Cyberoam Device Management enables network administrators to control the use of removable media based on the user or group and type of media. With customizable alerts to administrators and warning messages to users, Cyberoam alerts administrators while educating users regarding the organization’s data protection policy.

Types of Devices

Cyberoam Device Management supports access control for USB and other storage devices, including pen drives, hard disks, CDs / DVDs, tapes, PDAs, smartphones and more. In addition, it offers control over Wi-Fi and Bluetooth adapters, Wireless & LAN adapters, infra-red, serial and parallel ports and other devices.

Policies can be created for individual users and groups based on their work profile or hierarchy. Granular controls are offered based on the time of the day, allowing organizations to have differing policies for non-working hours. Expiry time can be defined for temporary policies.

Most importantly, device control policy can be defined in situations when the user is outside the organization’s network, extending organizational data protection policies in case of mobile devices like laptops. This prevents users from transferring data when physically outside the organization’s network.

Devices

Audit trail

Cyberoam Application Control

Cyberoam Application Control regulates application use at the endpoint through granular, policy-based controls over individual users as well as groups. It employs customized application whitelisting to ensure that only authorized applications can be accessed by end users. Organizations can, thus, protect sensitive data from loss, entry of malware while simultaneously boosting employee productivity.

Cyberoam Application Control

Application Classes

Cyberoam Application Control allows administrators to create customized groups of application lists. These groups can be used as white lists or black lists to allow or deny access to users and groups based on departments, work profiles and hierarchy. The grouping allows easy retrieval and quick policy enforcement.

The list of application classes can include browsing, instant messengers, office applications, entertainment, FTP utilities, games, mail applications, P2P, utilities and more to begin with. Administrators can however, create extensive customized lists that are relevant to their organization. This classification also allows administrators to reduce the incidence of malware.

Alerts and Archival

While customized alerts inform the administrator regarding attempts to access unauthorized applications, warning messages enhance user education. Cyberoam Application Control also generates logs of application access which includes time of access, system, user, and application name. These logs enable managers to assess employee work behavior based on their access of unauthorized applications.

Cyberoam Asset Management

IT managers are frustrated by the tedious routine of auditing and maintaining computer systems for hundreds and thousands of users in distributed locations. Some of the frequent issues that crop up include:

  1. How many computers are installed with Windows XP or Vista?
  2. When should software licenses be renewed?
  3. How does one allow Windows patches to be applied automatically?
  4. How does one prevent the download of illegal applications?
  5. Which systems could be vulnerable to malware attacks?
  6. Is my browser patched with latest updates ?

Consequently, organizations must use an asset management solution to optimize their hardware and software inventory. This helps them gain cost control while lowering the incidence of threats.

Cyberoam's Asset Management module for Windows enables organizations to streamline their IT infrastructure management with centralized and automated hardware and software asset management that includes inventory, patch and update management. This results in control of hardware and software costs, while keeping the Windows operating system and application software up-to-date, lowering malware incidence.

Asset Management discovers all hardware and software components through the Agent installed in Windows endpoints. This reduces the tedious and complex task of manually collecting hardware and software information, lowering manpower utilization and resulting in higher accuracy.

Asset Types

Asset types include the following:

  1. Hardware: Information with username, IP address, BIOS, disk drive, CPU, network adapter, sound card, keyboard, modem, etc.
  2. Software: Operating system, anti-virus, applications, Microsoft patches
  3. Custom: Customized definition of new assets such as switches, routers etc.

Patch Management

Cyberoam’s patch management functionality makes periodic checks for Windows patches. It then automatically downloads, distributes and installs the patch to all agents if a new patch is found, therefore, handling bug fixes across the network irrespective of the geographic location and preventing malware attacks. Cyberoam’s comprehensive and centralized controls allow organizations to meet security compliance requirements.

Remote Deployment Support

With Cyberoam’s Asset Management, administrators can remotely install new MSI-based applications without the need of their physical presence at the endpoint. The module has the ability to create specific packages and to remotely perform bulk deployment of these applications.
