Extending Centralised IT Security Policy Enforcement and Management

Yoggie Management Server extends the IT manager’s ability to manage and enforce corporate-level security to traveling laptops that secure the actual laptop and also protect the corporate network when laptops return to the office. It is as if these users never left the secure environment of the corporate network, enjoying the peace of mind of a robust first line of defense, managed by IT professionals.

With the Yoggie Gatekeeper brand of security mini-computers plugged-in on every mobile and remote workforce computer all users benefit from the same level of security as the corporate network. The USB plug-in mini-computer is revolutionising how computers are protected. The Gatekeeper is packed with 13 different security software solutions including Firewall, VPN Client, Intrusion Detection and Prevention, Anti-Virus, Anti-Spam, and more that block all Internet threats before they reach the PC or laptop.

Corporate security policies are effectively enforced across all users as the Yoggie Management Server can apply connectivity conditions such as not allowing connection of all laptops or any individual laptop to the Internet without the presence of the Yoggie security mini-computer.

Controlling the Yoggie Devices in the Field

Yoggie Management Server™ is a robust security management appliance installed in the IT server room. It manages the fleet of traveling Yoggie devices, providing security policy updates, signatures, and rule-base updates, while obtaining local logs and events.

Centralised Security Enforcement

Yoggie Management Server™ offers centralised management and enforcement of the security policies. Policy setting can be as easy as setting High, Medium and Low protection settings or by setting the policy for each of the security packages, including Firewall, IDS, VPN, Anti-virus, Anti-spam, and Web-filtering policies. The security policies are effectively enforced thanks to the Yoggie Driver, which does not allow the connection of the laptop to the Internet without the Yoggie personal security server – either Pico or Gatekeeper.

Comprehensive Reports
