Ricardo,

Pointsec has some limitations, other solutions that are worth looking into
are:

Which would be?  I'm not trying to be confrontational, I am simply curious.

I have personally used WinMagic, PointSec and PGP.  I am not familiar
with the TecSec, though I am curious as to what limitations you would
be referring to in regards to PointSec.

IMO I would use either PointSec or SecureDoc, by WinMagic.  I would
stay away from PGP's product like the plague.

They are both extremely thorough.  Pointsec with it's current release
is much faster, and has quite a few handy features, like disabling
removeable media until authentication, etc...  I haven't used
SecureDoc since it's been Linux compliant, so I can't speak on it's
newer revisions...
