Checkpoint pointsec crack

Am I missing a step? The notebook in question is a Lenovo T61 widescreen. I am also having the same problems as GiantKiller.

I am using pointsec 6. Do you guys thnk the problem is with the SATA controller? GiantKiller, I was having the same issue as you were. I can see the local drive and copy files to a network share. Give it a try. Hope this helps!!!! It sounds like the drivers for the hard drive bus are missing as they were for me. XP recognizes only so many devices and or the generic drivers will not work.

Sometimes you might have them incorporated into Bart PE but the naming convention is wrong. The correct Sata Driver is a must. You mentioned 6. Ensure you have the correct version of the Pointsec plugin. It is very possible to corrupt the hard drive if you fail to do so. Hello, I am one of the people that hasn't backup up a few projects to the network yet whilst getting a Windows system error early in the morning at work.

What if i reinstall windows on another disk hdd2 , install pointsec on that environment and use the same Username and Password for the pointsec encryption. Mark It sounds like you want to try taking your unreadable drive and put it into a working machine that has Pointsec installed and read the data that way. Yes it will work, as long as you have valid credentials for the unreadable drive. Here are some instructions.

I've been researching but cannot find good instruction. If you could help me out, I'd really appreciate it! Thank you!!! I do not have the sys file. Can we guarantee that with another laptop with pointsec and put the old HD from the crashed laptop as slave to the new laptop also with pointsec installed would make me restore the lost data? I mean new laptop with my login for windows and pointsec and after that , try access the slave lost disk?

Maybe this would automatically ask for a secondary authentication and get the data even without the recovery file. If you have pointsec on your working laptop, then you have the "sys" file. Read the top segment of the blog very carefully. If you build the Boot CD you do not need to boot from another hard drive.

Use the CD to pull your files. Hi, What an interesting find here, just a quick run through, my company laptop decided to BSOD upon XP bootup, we are using pointsec 6. I know I can access the preboot menu okay my only problem is the recovery file is on the laptop itself. I have been issued with another laptop spare with the same version of pointsec installed. If there is a problem with the drive where the sectors have gone bad for some reason then your IT staff may be right.

Having said that, then yes. You should be able to follow these instructions and read the contents of the drive if you can satisfy a few "ifs. For future reference, I would highly recommend that you make backups of your files and especially make a copy of the recovery file and keep it somewhere else.

I am really surprised to hear that your IT people are deploying this and not keeping copies of the recovery file. They will suffer much pain if they continue with this practice. It's only a matter of time before someone's laptop fails and it's a person with enough clout in the company to make life hard on them. Worked like a charm, thank you! The only quirk was convincing the helpdesk team to supply the Pointsec Resource Kit, but more than that, they supplied the complete ISO!

I have gone thru the instructions of creating a Bart boot cd and login. But after login into Bart its not recognizing the encrypted hard drive. Thank you Brian. Brian, have you gone through the Pointsec regular login screen? Only after that you should boot from the CD. Assuming you have followed the process correctly in making the CD, then you do not have the drivers installed on the CD.

Part of creating the Boot CD is integrating the drivers for the hardware into it. You do not have the proper drivers loaded into the build - these would the critical - IDE or Sata, networking and or video - get those correct drivers blended into the build deck to make the boot CD. THe steps to do this are on the Bart website. GiantKiller, Thanks I'll try to add some additional drivers, but what i've observed the BartPE created is working perfectly on a machine that has no pointsec, but when tried to a machine with a pointsec, thats the error You must satisfy point-sec security in the boot process as detailed on the blog.

If it was not loaded properly or was the wrong version, it would not work. While complex, convoluted, and way too painful, this process will yield a forensically sound image of an entire decrypted drive with all metadata intact for the drive, not just the unlocked partition s.

Would anyone please be able to send me the plugin Our install is on a network share and no-one seems to know who put it there and didnt copy the resource kit folder. Attempted use on two differnet hardware platforms with no success. Wondering if you ran into this problem or have any insight.

Thanks and awesome site. We've used this successfully with Windows XP. We are testing R73 on 64bit Windows 7 and haven't had the same luck. Anyone have better luck? Black Fist, thank you for your work. I have followed your instructions on downloading bart pe.

I can not find the resource kit. Can you please be more specific. Thank you. New version is tentatively scheduled for the middle of Q1 Running pointsec 6. I'm just testing and the test system is actually booting fine. Once I hit ctrl-F10 and log into preboot and select boot from PE, the system boots directly to windows. The only reason I can think of that it wouldn't boot to the disk is if there was something wrong with the disk and the disk is not bootable.

In that case it would fall back to booting the hard drive. Guys, know it is a long shot but is anyone able to provide me with a version the Resource Kit pointsec. It just goes ahead and loads the OS. We do have WIL enabled on both the console and laptop. It does the same thing even if i try temporarily disabling WIL in the customization secion.

We are using version 6. What am I doing wrong?!!! HDD is fine I'm sure of that, I just need to modify my boot. Even Fail-safe doesn't work. But here's the thing. Hi Ranjobd, can you please advise how can we reach you beside the mobile as we can't reach your number.

Hi there, I have a laptop that I inherited from my last company which has pointsec on, something happened the other day and amessage came up saying the password database was corupt and that I would have to use an old password, when i use the old password I get a message saying "Invalid login, password ok but locked" What should I do please????

This FireWire attack would not be successful in that case, because the attack requires that Windows already be up and running. In the circumstance of a properly configured encrypted computer, a stolen system that is powered off would be well protected from unauthorized access and this type of attack. The workaround for this according to Pointsec Checkpoint is to have the administrators that have the Pointsec solution deployed in their networks to re-deploy it with the "Pre-boot authentication" enabled.
