January 2012 by Emmanuelle Lamandé
CoSoSys has just released version 2 of their EasyLock solution for portable data protection. The enhanced new version offers full support for cross platform encryption between Windows, Mac OS X and Linux openSUSE and Ubuntu.
The new EasyLock 2 not only provides military-grade protection for data stored on USB flash drives and other portable storage devices through its 256bit AES encryption (CBC-mode), but at the same time allows cross platform mobility by enabling users to protect their files when in transit and to access them on different operating systems. All these functionalities are available through the new and improved user interface, which focuses on ease of use and intuitive options.
EasyLock 2 is a solution for both home users that want to encrypt their private files, pictures or other personal information on a USB Flash Drive or external HDD and move them between a Windows PC in the office and a Mac at home, and for business users that need to ensure the privacy and protection of company and client confidential data. EasyLock 2 provides enforced encryption of data moved between endpoints of the corporate network when used together with the device control and data loss prevention solution Endpoint Protector.
