Cruzer® Enterprise
USB Security at Multiple Tiers
USB flash drives have been transformed from consumer gadgets into must-have productivity
tools used by business people everywhere. However, most drives are privately owned
and lack the mandatory security and control measures that organizations require.
This exposes organizations to tremendous risks when a drive containing sensitive
information is lost or stolen, potentially resulting in expensive customer notifications,
a compromised company image, or failure to meet regulatory requirements.
SanDisk® Cruzer® Enterprise Secure USB flash drive imposes mandatory, hardware-based
encryption on all files, protecting mobile data both within and outside the corporate
environment. It is the first drive to fully support Apple Mac OS X computers and
can be initialized from either a Macintosh or a Windows computer. By supporting
both Macintosh and Microsoft Windows environments, IT professionals can more effectively
use SanDisk Cruzer Enterprise to protect information on company-issued secure
USB flash drives across their organizations.
Secure and Manage Enterprise Data, Everywhere
The Cruzer® Enterprise USB flash drive helps IT professionals more effectively
protect information on company-issued secure USB flash drives. It is specifically
designed to meet the unique security, compliance and manageability needs of enterprises.
Rather than rely upon users to secure files, it imposes mandatory access control
on all files, storing them in a hardware-encrypted, password-protected partition.
This secures all stored data in the event of drive loss or theft. The Cruzer Enterprise
secure USB flash drive features ultra-fast transfer speeds and a simple user interface,
all in a plug-and-play device.
Central Management and Control (CMC) software can manage the complete lifecycle
of Cruzer Enterprise secure USB flash drives, from initial user-deployment, through
password administration and data backup, and finally to drive termination if lost
or stolen.

Central Management and Control (CMC)
for Cruzer® Enterprise USB Flash Drives
Keeping track of data brought into/removed from a company on personal USB flash
drives poses both significant security and regulatory challenges for IT departments.
Many employees use their own devices to store company information, and may overlook
company mobile usage policies. The data stored on such devices is generally not
handled by routine company procedures such as backup, encryption or asset management.
Organizations acknowledge the need for special safeguards to protect against the
associated risks to sensitive company data. SanDisk Central Management and Control
(CMC) software, teamed with SanDisk Cruzer Enterprise companyissued USB flash
drive, provides these safeguards in an optimal manner.
Central Control, Tighter Protection
Central Management and Control (CMC) server-based software is an innovative solution
that utilizes the unique hardware and embedded software capabilities of Cruzer
Enterprise USB flash drives. The CMC device agent resides on a company-issued
Cruzer Enterprise drive, enabling the corporate IT department to centrally manage
devices both within and outside the corporate environment.
Added Security for Corporate Networks
CMC protects corporate data by coordinating the complete lifecycle of Cruzer
Enterprise drives, from initial userdeployment, through tasks such as password
recovery and data backup, and finally to drive termination. CMC provides continuous
enforcement of company policy, tracking and monitoring activity beyond the corporate
network. Now the control and management of mobile devices through corporate networks
can be in the safest hands of all − corporate IT personnel.
