A smart way to protect your data and resources
- Device binding is a feature -- sometimes requested as part of Data Loss Prevention (DLP) control -- which ensures that certain information can be accessed “only” from authorised devices.
- Every organisation will have some form of sensitive or critical information that cannot be made available to every employee. Device Binding is perfect to protect the privacy of such information or data.
Restrict sharing of sensitive information
- An IT administrator who makes sensitive data available only to authorised devices can place further restrictions to ensure that the data in question can be shared only with certain users or devices, or over certain networks.
- Feature access restrictions can be set by an IT administrator to prevent users from accessing certain features. For instance, the administrator can restrict a user from setting auto-forward on their email account, which means that the user can view his/her mails only from his/her officially issued account.
