Bitdefender GravityZone Full Disk Encryption
Comprehensive data protection and compliance

Key Capabilities:

• Uses proven native encryption for Windows (BitLocker) and Mac (FileVault) to help you avoid performance issues, no new agent required
• Provides central key management and recovery to help protect against unauthorized data access via pre-boot authentication enforcement
• Deploys simply and intuitively and doesn’t require additional management consoles, encryption management from the same cloud, or on-premises GravityZone console used for endpoint protection
• Prevents anything from being read from the hard disk using pre-boot authentication enforcement, guaranteeing a secure, tamper-proof environment external to the operating system as a trusted authentication layer
• Generates encryption-specific reports to help organizations meet compliance requirements

Native, proven encryption

GravityZone Full Disk Encryption leverages the encryption mechanisms provided by Windows (BitLocker) and Mac (FileVault), utilizing the native device encryption to ensure compatibility and performance. There is no additional agent to deploy and no key management server to install.

Ease of deployment

Using the existing endpoint security infrastructure (GravityZone console) to manage the Full Disk Encryption add-on makes deployment fast and painless. Once the encryption management module in the existing console is activated, the deployment of encryption on endpoints can be centrally initiated and fully managed.

GravityZone Full Disk Encryption reduces the risk of data theft while simplifying security and compliance with regulations like GDPR, HIPAA, PCI DSS and more. You can avoid risks and successfully meet compliance regulations by fully encrypting the hard drives of your mobile endpoints.

• Helps you avoid risk and successfully demonstrate compliance by fully encrypting the hard drives of your mobile endpoints – from the same cloud or onpremises console you use for endpoint protection
• Simplifies deploying Full Disk Encryption on endpoints and managing or restoring keys from the console
• Protects company data from accidental data loss or theft – prevent public exposure, heavy fines and legal consequences
• Ensures regulation compliance – (HIPAA, PCI DSS, GDPR) on encryption for data at rest

Why do I need GravityZone Full Disk Encryption?

GravityZone Full Disk Encryption (FDE) prevents unauthorized access to your entire hard drive all at once. Thousands of laptops are lost or stolen every week. Without full disk encryption, whoever finds (or has stolen) it can access the data on the disk drive.

Why passwords aren’t enough?

Even though passwords might stop malicious actors from logging into the device and using it, the data disk is still available to anyone by simply removing the drive and installing it on another computer. FDE secures the data on the disk drive, no matter who has physical possession.

How can I get it?

GravityZone Full Disk Encryption is an optional add-on module to any of Bitdefender’s GravityZone endpoint security solutions

What are the minimum requirements?

The GravityZone Full Disk Encryption module uses the existing hardware resources in your GravityZone environment. From a software perspective, the requirements are almost the same as for Windows BitLocker, or FileVault and the diskutil command-line utility for Mac, and most of the limitations refer to these tools.
