BitLocker Drive Encryption vs. INKY Behavioral Email Security Platform

It is well suited especially for users that access or store sensitive/confidential data on their computers. In the case of where users are accessing confidential data over the network, it is highly recommended to use Bitlocker to encrypt the computer. In the case where users are storing confidential data on their computer, it should be a requirement that BitLocker is used/enabled. It would be less appropriate if someone was using a computer and they were not dealing with any sensitive data, or in cases where the computer is used for recreational purposes (browsing the web, playing games, etc).

definitely great to use for any microsoft Client, the google issues are more a google thing so you will have similar issues with any other vendor. If you do not want a SEG for google, then use INKY Behavioral Email Security Platform, as it is still great once you get it set up

• Encrypts the entire drive and provides a high level of security.
• In an Active Directory environment, you can set up BitLocker to automatically save keys to AD.
• As part of Windows, no additional licensing costs.
• Set up and configuration is relatively easy.
• Uses TPM module to increase security.

• Anti Spam
• Simple User Interface
• Simple Admin Interface

• Even if it's the best we tested, I think write performance could be improved. Maybe with dedicated hardware inside the TPM?
• No integration with OS password is a shame as most others have it and it is Microsoft on Microsoft so they can probably do it better then anyone else and safer.
• I wish they would support multiple passwords like FileVault on macOS. If it's a shared computer, you have to give the only password to Bitlocker to both users.

Very easy to enable.

if only there was a way to make the google integration smoother, in my experience, it is really bad.

Not good nor bad, BitLocker encryption is a symptom of our era, we need to protect ourselves and our data, BitLocker is a tool, as an IT we have to deal with it but it doesn't bring any benefit to my daily operations.

It's best suited for companies that are not trying to go far away on the disk encryption matter

we migrated from SpamTitan due to multiple outages and billing problems.

• The biggest positive impact it has on ROI is the cost savings, since there is no cost to using the software.
• Since it's widely available to anyone with a Windows computer, and the program is built into the operating system, there is no need to really install anything. This helps to save time of the IT department having to do installs, and also keep track of licensing, etc.

• clients were not happy with previous system
