PGP NetShare
Encrypt files with policy-enforced file encryption for collaborating teams
![]() | PGP NetShare from Symantec allows users to automatically and transparently encrypt files and folders on a file server enabling secure sharing of protected documents, spreadsheets, graphics files and more. PGP NetShare provides client-based server encryption that can be managed via PGP Universal Server to enforce corporate data protection and key management policies. | Trialware Purchasing Data Sheet (PDF) |
Key Features
- Transparently allows a user to read and write shared encrypted files if they have been granted PGP NetShare access – otherwise access to those files is disabled.
- Embeds file or folder encryption protection. Once secure, files and folders can be moved without losing their protection.
- Supports role separation by enforcing different permission levels for users, data owners and administrators.
- Enables PGP Universal Server administrators to ensure a PGP NetShare user will automatically and transparently encrypt files based on application type.
Key Benefits
- Allows users to easily and transparently share encrypted files and folders, improving data security without impacting user productivity.
- Enables administrators to provide owner-based content encryption for files and folders on file shares while maintaining control over encryption keys and encryption policies.
- Leverages existing PGP Universal Server capabilities such as Active Directory support and key management services to reduce the complexity inherent in providing user-based file server encryption services.
