Transparent Encryption

Transparent Encryption

Encryption works effortlessly in the background, ensuring it does not disrupt employee workflows or routines.

Data Protection at Rest and in Motion

Data Protection at Rest and in Motion

Files are encrypted and decrypted directly on users’ devices, no matter where they are stored. This guarantees data remains secure—whether it’s at rest or in transit—protecting against unauthorized access and interception. Client-side encryption ensures that data can be safely stored off-site and even in the cloud.

Compliance Fulfillment

Compliance Fulfillment

LAN Crypt File and Folder Encryption supports compliance with key data protection regulations such as GDPR, NIS2, and DORA. A dedicated VS-NfD-approved version is also available for use in classified environments.

Role-based Access Management

Role-based Access Management

Organizations have the flexibility to control who accesses specific data. On the administration side, network administrators can access files without being able to read them, while security officers manage file encryption keys without handling the files themselves.

Secure Sharing with external parties

Secure Sharing with external parties

Share data securely with external collaborators: By using LAN Crypt 2Go, users can manage encryption of their sensitive data. It also enables them to manage and share access to encrypted documents with colleagues or external partners, like consultants or contractors.

LAN Crypt File and Folder Encryption is an easy-to-install encryption solution that provides an additional layer of data security. With role-based access management, it prevents malicious or unauthorized external access and restricts internal access within organizations ensuring compliant and secure data management.

Available in different versions and deployment options, it ensures that every organization’s encryption needs are reliably fulfilled:

  • LAN Crypt 2Go: Allowing secure sharing of external documents with encryption keys managed by the users.
  • File and Folder Encryption as a Service: Enabling reliable, role-based data encryption centrally managed in the cloud.

LAN Crypt File and Folder Encryption and LAN Crypt 2Go are also available as VS-NfD-certified version, making it ideal for safeguarding data in classified environments.

Customers have the freedom of choice between on-prem or cloud-hosted administration. Both variants support full key ownership and key custody, ensuring that encryption keys are never exposed to any outside party, as well as the integration with Utimaco’s Enterprise Secure Key Manager for local key storage.
