DriveStrike Product facts

What DriveStrike is

DriveStrike protects data when a device is lost, stolen, or leaving the company. From the dashboard, an administrator can locate, lock, or wipe an enrolled device, and manage encryption on the computers the product supports.

Read the product story on the homepage, the platform list on mobile device management, and the method on how to compare DriveStrike.

What DriveStrike is not

  • It is not consumer antivirus, and it does not replace identity security, endpoint detection, patching, or backups.
  • It is not a ranked “best MDM” list. This site does not publish an aggregate star rating.
  • It does not manage Apple security settings today. That work is on the roadmap.
  • It manages Mac FileVault. FileVault key escrow, FileVault key rotation, and automatic FileVault re-enable are not documented.
  • It does not currently capture GPS on MacBooks. Mac location is the IP address, recorded once a day.
  • An iPhone reports its IP address unless the device was placed in Supervised Mode before the DriveStrike iOS profile was installed. With that supervision, Lost Mode can return the location.
  • Customer work is described on what DriveStrike will stand behind. Those stories do not name the companies. Do not turn the Spearstone client list on the about page into DriveStrike customer counts.
