SanDisk® Check Point ABRA 8GB - CPEP-VW-8GB

Description
Secure Virtual Workspace Check Point Abra combines a SanDisk high-performance, encrypted USB flash drive with Check Point virtualization, VPN and security technologies to deliver a device that turns a PC into a virtual corporate desktop.

Creating this virtual workspace does not require any additional hardware or software beyond the self contained USB flash drive. Check Point Abra users simply plug the drive into any Windows® OS-based PC and enter their credentials to initiate the session. All activity and information remains isolated from the host PC, preventing any data loss through the host PC and ensuring all information remains secure on the device. By utilizing hardware and software encryption, users can rest easy knowing their data is protected both while the drive is in use as well as if the device is lost or stolen.

Using SanDisk's secure USB flash drive platform in conjunction with Check Point's security and VPN technologies, organizations can provide corporate desktop access to their employees without the need of a bulky laptop. This provides more flexibility for the mobile workforce and minimizes costs. Check Point Abra also reduces complexity through simple setup and deployment. This ensures a secure workspace that maintains the highest degree of security and lowers administrative overhead for IT organizations.

Organizations who allow employees to access corporate networks through unmanaged and unprotected computer terminals or USB flash drives can create security and compliance issues. This is particularly true for companies with a remote workforce. These unsecured endpoints and the potential malware infecting them put companies in a position of unnecessary risk. With Check Point Abra solution, remote employees can create a virtual environment on these devices, mitigating risks and providing the added convenience of turning the PC into their corporate desktop.

This also creates greater flexibility for organizations looking to give contractors limited access to the corporate network. These drives allow companies to provide limited access to external employees and ensure the data they access remains secure. By using these drives, companies also reduce the financial expenses for these contractors while still providing the required access to the network.

Disaster recovery is another benefit provided by Check Point Abra. Many companies simply think of where the data resides when preparing for disasters. However, some fail to consider the difficulties that would result if employees could not access their workstations. Check Point Abra removes this problem by allowing access on an external PC, further expanding a company's disaster recovery capabilities.

Check Point Abra leverage the strength of SanDisk's secure USB platform, featuring hardware-based encryption, ultra-fast transfer speeds and plug-and-play functionality.
