Security giant McAfee and networking specialists Alcatel-Lucent have joined forces in a collaboration to protect the data from lost laptops.

A new solution will integrate Alcatel-Lucent’s Nonstop Laptop Guardian (NLG) with McAfee’s Endpoint Encryption which enables pre-boot authentication and “remote kill” capabilities. It also claims to offer auditing and reporting capabilities to meet industry and government compliance rules.

McAfee’s Endpoint Encryption will use encryption and access control to prevent unauthorised use of data, while Alcatel-Lucent’s OmniAccess 3500 NLG will use 3G wireless networks to manage and secure computers in a similar way to the protection given to desktop computers.
