Jetico Extends Policy-Based Data Access Control to Enterprise Environments

BestCrypt Data Shelter Enables Centrally Managed Access Control Based on Zero-Trust Principles

Jetico, developer of long-trusted data wiping and encryption solutions, today announced the extension of BestCrypt Data Shelter to include centrally managed enterprise data access control for sensitive files. The solution allows security teams to define and enforce policies governing which applications, processes and users can access protected files. This default-deny model aligns with zero-trust security principles.

“Organizations have made significant progress in encrypting data and securing the perimeter, but broad access inside trusted environments often remains uncontrolled,” explains Jetico CEO Hannaleena Pojanluoma. “BestCrypt Data Shelter takes a different approach by restricting access by default and allowing only trusted applications and authorized users to interact with sensitive data.”

Administrators can now create, distribute and update access control policies across endpoints from a centralized management console. Each policy specifies which trusted applications, processes and users can interact with designated files.
