Re: Full Disk Laptop Encryption

Just like you're curious about Pointsec I'm curious about your opinion of PGP's products. I haven't tracked PGP corporations product lines at all, but I'm curious as to why you don't like them.

Which would be? I'm not trying to be confrontational, I am simply curious.

I have personally used WinMagic, PointSec and PGP. I am not familiar
with the TecSec, though I am curious as to what limitations you would
be referring to in regards to PointSec.

IMO I would use either PointSec or SecureDoc, by WinMagic. I would
stay away from PGP's product like the plague.

They are both extremely thorough. Pointsec with it's current release
is much faster, and has quite a few handy features, like disabling
removeable media until authentication, etc... I haven't used
SecureDoc since it's been Linux compliant, so I can't speak on it's
newer revisions...
