Shared on laptops, mobiley and on attachable devices, sensitive municipal information needs tighter endpoint security and control.

DPS for Municipalities balances productivity and performance without compromising daily activities. DPS is granular, has comprehensive integration and a full-range of compliancy features. You know where your data is and who is accessing it. You can also limit Wi-Fi connectivity. DPS port and device control stops information leakage from endpoints, including from lost or stolen devices like laptops, tablets, mobiles and USBs.
