How endpoint encryption works in a data security strategy

https://www.techtarget.com/searchsecurity/tip/How-endpoint-encryption-works-in-a-data-security-strategy

Excerpts:

Companies should use encryption to keep data on endpoints protected should an attacker successfully get hold of a device or breach enterprise security measures.

Hardware-based encryption takes place within the drive itself, using an onboard cryptoprocessor that automatically encrypts everything when written to the disk. These are known as self-encrypting drives (SEDs). The encryption key used to encrypt data stored on these drives never leaves the device and is known only by the drive itself. The authorization key, set by the user, is also encrypted and stored on the drive. It is used to decrypt the encryption key and load it into the cryptoprocessor, thereby controlling access to the drive's data.

Encryption keys and user information are stored in the drive hardware. This isolates the drive from the CPU and OS, making it less vulnerable to attack. SEDs also work without affecting system performance as the drive controller performs all the hardware-based disk encryption, not the host OS.
==================================================================
It would be smart for your organization to activate these SEDs in computers and manage them with Wave SED management as all organizations are concerned about data security!! Wave has had a lot of experience in doing this; some companies with over 100,000 employees!!
