Check Point Abra

Check Point Abra puts your office in your pocket.

Do you need to keep your remote employees and contractors connected when travelling without providing them with costly laptops? No problem! Check Point Abra puts an office in their pocket, with a secure virtual workspace that changes the way mobile users work. Abra instantly turns any PC into a corporate desktop, allowing employees and contractors to access files and applications anywhere, anytime—without the weight of bulky laptops or work files.

Its plug-and-play USB form factor allows users to easily launch a virtual workspace that keeps mobile data secure by segregating the virtual workspace from the host PC. And, built-in encryption protects data while working or traveling. Users can work offline from the encrypted USB drive or online using Abra’s integrated VPN client.

Plug-and-Play Operation

No host PC reboot, software installation or administrator rights are needed to launch the Abra secure virtual workspace. Just plug the encrypted Abra USB stick into any PC and provide valid authentication to begin.

Secure Virtual Workspace
Abra virtualization technology segregates the secure workspace from the host PC, enforcing isolation between the Abra and host PC environments. Since Abra writes nothing to the host, no session traces or data are left behind.

Standard Windows User Environment
The Abra secure virtual workspace leverages the standard Windows user environment, enabling easy navigation and rapid end-user adoption.

Integrated VPN Connectivity
Access critical files and applications anywhere using Abra’s advanced VPN client to connect with corporate networks and secure online resources. Host PCs are scanned to ensure presence of known-good antivirus software.

Always-on Hardware and Software Encryption
Data at rest on the Abra USB stick is always protected with ‘always-on’ AES 256-bit hardware encryption. In addition, software encryption isolates and protects the data when in use.

File Transfer Control
Transfer of files between personal and corporate workspace environments is strictly controlled by the security policy.

Application Control
Execution and use of applications and programs is strictly controlled by the security policy. Only pre-approved applications are allowed to run within the secure virtual workspace, effectively blocking installation of malware and other threats. Abra can also block attempts to print from applications running inside of the protected environment.

User Authentication Abra supports minimum password strength enforcement, as well as certificates and tokens for multi-factor authentication. A ‘virtual keyboard’ can be used at login to block password theft by keyloggers.

Central Management
Abra is fully integrated with Check Point SmartDashboard, providing central policy administration and updates through Check Point gateways. Authentication and compliance scanning rules, VPN settings and software updates can be centrally deployed. Password recovery is available to maintain business continuity.
