My project team releases the Data Encryption Toolkit for Mobile PCs Executive Overview

My project team is pleased to announce the release of the Executive Overview for our newest Solution Accelerator, the Data Encryption Toolkit for Mobile PCs.

A free Solution Accelerator from Microsoft, the Data Encryption Toolkit for Mobile PCs provides tested guidance and powerful tools to help you protect your organization’s most vulnerable data. The strategies outlined in the toolkit are easy to deploy, and show you how to optimize two key encryption technologies already available to you in Microsoft® Windows® XP or Windows Vista™: the Encrypting File System and BitLocker Drive Encryption.

The Executive Overview is the first of several deliverables in the toolkit, and provides a high-level overview of the business and security risks inherent in mobile PCs.  The Executive Overview also describes many of the technologies Microsoft provides to help address these risks – technologies that you already license. In addition, it provides a brief preview of the additional guidance and tools that our team will be releasing over the coming months in the Data Encryption Toolkit for Mobile PCs.
