Comparison Matrix

  Enterprise IT Perspective •  Holistic Approach •  Security •  Access Control and Tracking •  Sharing Controls •  Online Document Viewer •  Sharing Controls •  Outlook Plugin •  Mobility Management Controls •  Data Loss Prevention and Data Protection •  Efficiency •  Deployment Options

  End-user Perspective

Vaultize – Holistic Approach

  Information-centric   Security, Control and Visibility through built-in

•  Digital Rights Management (DRM aka IRM) •  Data Loss Prevention (DLP) •  Backup/Restore •  Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM)

  IT team can monitor, control and track even after data goes to third-party on devices beyond IT control

  Watchdox also follows information-centric approach but lacks end-to-end security like Vaultize •  Encryption at Source •  No dependence on VPN •  On-disk Encryption on endpoints

Vaultize - Security

  Vault KNOX Technology •  Encryption and Content-aware Smart De-duplication both

together at source (patent-pending)

  Does not rely on SSL alone •  SSL is prone to attacks

  Creates secure tunnel like VPN •  So, no need for VPN when using Vaultize

  Adds DRM layer as additional security to manage rights even after downloaded by third-party

  Watchdox relies on SSL and DRM-encryption

Vaultize – Access Control and Tracking

  Control access at the level of user, data source and content

  Both Vaultize and Watchdox provide Digital Rights Management (DRM) •  Access rights travel with files – security envelope •  Track access, use (edit, copy/paste, print) •  Even when files leave corporate network

attachments (even non DRM-encrypted files) o  Ensures better control o  Reduction in PST size o  Reduction in Exchange Storage – highly reduced TCO

•  Auto-conversion based on policies

DLP and Backup/Restore

  Vaultize •  Endpoint Encryption and Remote wiping for Windows and

Mobile Devices (iOS/Android) o  Selective file/folder encryption on Windows based on policies

•  Automatic wiping based on IP and Geographical location •  Comprehensive Endpoint Backup

o  Policy based o  Large size files o  Open files o  Outlook PST – efficient content-aware backup

  Watchdox provides encryption only of shared DRM’d files

Vaultize - Efficiency
