Combining EgoSecure Data Protection and PRTG Network Monitor enhances GDPR compliance.
With Data Protection, EgoSecure offers comprehensive data protection solutions, consisting of analysis tools and protection functions that complement each other in a modular way, and which are controlled via a central management console. The main focus is on a smooth integration of the modules and intuitive and easy use: “simply beautiful IT security”.
Monitoring expert Paessler is the world leader in IT infrastructure monitoring with more than 200,000 installations of PRTG Network Monitor worldwide. The solution supports all relevant monitoring protocols and methods and thus enables the integration of a wide variety of devices and systems in a central monitoring tool.
PRTG offers a range of options for the individual integration of devices and solutions. This includes an RESTful API, which can provide data to other solutions, and a REST custom sensor that can integrate data from other solutions into PRTG. In addition to this, there is also a whole range of custom sensors.
All of this makes it very easy to integrate information from EgoSecure into PRTG. Based on this information, PRTG provides long-term evaluations and, in the event of anomalies or the violation of defined thresholds, can send notifications and alerts via different channels, such as e-mail, SMS, or as push notifications on mobile devices. In addition, PRTG offers various options for reporting and publishing the data.
The new EU General Data Protection Regulation came into being in May 2018. As a result, companies are subject to completely new data security and processing requirements. The combination of data protection and network monitoring, i.e. EgoSecure and PRTG, helps you implement numerous provisions of the GDPR.
Take the example of drive encryption. For security reasons, all USB drives of a company must be encrypted, so that no access by unauthorized persons is possible in case of theft or loss of a drive. EgoSecure identifies unencrypted drives, transmits this information to PRTG as the central monitoring point, and PRTG immediately informs the responsible employee.
