ABOUT GOVERNMENT CERTIFICATIONS
Government departments in North America can no longer ignore the importance of information security.
The U.S. Office of Management and Budget made it clear in a 2006 Office of Management and Budget (OMB) memorandum that government departments must take action to secure sensitive information with approved information technologies. All data on mobile devices must be encrypted and remote access be permitted only with single-factor or 2-factor authentication. The Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat has also set standards on Management of Information Technology Security (MITS) that require all data on mobile devices be encrypted and that outline identification and strong authentication measures to be addressed for network access.
PURCHASING A PRODUCT THAT MEETS GOVERNMENT REQUIREMENTS
Both U.S. and Canadian governments mandate that any data stored on removable storage devices, such as USB drives, must be encrypted. The encryption product must be certified as compliant with the Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 140-2. This certification validates that a product underwent stringent testing by an accredited independent lab, earning the FIPS 140-2 certification from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the Canadian Communication Security Establishment (CSE).
Balancing the need for mobility with upholding security standards starts with putting into place the solutions that will prevent data security breaches.
Imation provides its government customers with greater mobility without compromising security, thanks to its managed portable security solutions. Government employees can securely store sensitive information as well as their digital credentials on one portable USB device, thereby preventing both data security breaches due to lost data and unauthorized access to network resources.
Imation Defender Collection™ devices are powered by the Imation Stealth Processor which is FIPS 140-2 Level 3 validated. The Imation M600 is offered for organizations/users that prefer a password-based, secure, encrypted USB flash drive; the Imation H200 Portable Biometric Hard Drive offers both strong password and biometric authentication.
