Endpoints are a common route for sensitive data to leave an organisation. Removable media and other data channels are difficult to supervise, increasing the risk of accidental or deliberate exfiltration.
Netwrix Endpoint Protector enforces access and transfer controls at the endpoint and records transfer events for reporting and investigation. It gives IT teams visibility into endpoint transfers and a record to support audit and forensic review.
Use cases include blocking unauthorised USB or peripheral use, enforcing rules for file transfers, and retaining transfer logs for audit and incident investigation.
Organisations also deploy the product to limit insider data theft, protect PII and intellectual property, and control data movement from remote or hybrid workers.
