LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--MXI Security™ today announces the UK availability of its RSA SecurID-interoperable Remote ACCESS™ solution. MXI Security is first-to-market with a FIPS 140-2 Level-2 certified, portable, driverless and fully-automated software solution that helps enterprises protect data on the move and validate remote network access.

MXI Security devices are deployed to ensure the integrity of confidential and commercially-sensitive data in mobile environments, and to verify user identity for remote network access. The FIPS-certified flash-based Stealth MXP™ offers up to 4GB of storage space encrypted to 256-bit AES standards, and protects data on the move via three-factor authentication – biometric access control, a fingerprint, and authenticated ownership of the physical device itself.

Stealth MXP and the hard drive-based Outbacker MXP, offering up to 80GB of encrypted mass storage, are driverless devices that function on any PC with a USB port running Microsoft ® Windows ® Vista, Windows XP, Windows 2000 or Embedded XP. Since the devices feature on-board processing for hardware-based AES 256 encryption, Stealth MXP and Outbacker MXP are zero-footprint drives that leave no trace on host machines.

In addition to the potentially catastrophic consequences from the loss of mobile data devices, digital footprints left behind on host machines by employees accessing corporate networks remotely can lead to security being compromised.

Dr Daniel Walsh, MXI Security Regional Director for EMEA says: “MXI Security solutions provide enhanced security in the field by eliminating any digital footprints on host PCs, and because we do not require users to take any special steps to secure data. Unlocking and locking a device is as simple as swiping a finger and security is maximized since Stealth MXP and Outbacker MXP units are automatically locked once they are disconnected from a USB slot or when the host computer is rebooted.

“One of the biggest challenges with mobile security is persuading field users to actually take precautions to ensure that their data is secured,” adds Dr Walsh. “One of the single biggest weaknesses in any mobile data security policy is requiring users to actively secure their data – because people forget, don’t care, or lose devices when they are in an unlocked state.”

The highly-portable Stealth MXP and Outbacker MXP are backed by MXI Security’s ACCESS Enterprise software suite, which simplifies the speedy rollout of secure portable storage devices across an organization, and provides the ability to fully control security policies, deployment and field usage of secure storage devices.

Secure devices are bound to individual users through hardware-based strong biometric and/or password authentication adding another layer of security to protect the RSA SecurID® software authenticator. This helps to ensure that even if a device is lost or stolen, unauthorized access to the stored data is not possible.

MXI Security is a member of the RSA SecurID for Authenticators Partner Program, having integrated RSA SecurID technology into its Stealth MXP, Stealth MXP Passport and Outbacker MXP products.
