New File Encryption Software Tackles Top Security Threat With One-Click Simplicity

    DALLAS, TX, March 23, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- With horror stories of sensitive data stolen from lost laptops and flash drives becoming increasingly commonplace, a new product now hitting the market promises to keep personal information personal for PC users.

SensiGuard file encryption software, unveiled this month by Dallas, Texas-based Intricom Technologies makes it possible for any PC user to enjoy state-of-the-art encryption security with one-click simplicity that allows anyone to protect their private files, according to Intricom founder Steve Jordan.

"SensiGuard is simple to download, easy to use, and incredibly affordable considering the protection it provides," Jordan said. "Whether you're an individual who keeps personal information like account numbers and passwords on your PC or USB flash drive, or a professional maintaining client records on a laptop or office computer, recent incidents leave no doubt it's essential to encrypt private information."

In fact, both objective data and subjective surveys now show that stolen data from PCs, laptops, USB flash drives, memory sticks and other peripherals now amounts to a greater security threat that either viruses or malware. Some 637,000 laptops go missing each year in U.S. airports alone, according to figures from the Ponemon Institute, and about 70 percent of them are never recovered. In the same vein, a Centennial Software study identified removable media as the top security threat facing the field.

In some workplaces, security experts have gone so far as to glue USB drives closed so data can't be transferred to theft-prone removable devices. But the real answer lies in encryption, said Jordan, a 20-year veteran in the field of financial services technology innovation who established Intricom last year.

"Until now, the solution was too expensive and too technical for most PC owners," Jordan said. "SensiGuard makes it simple and affordable for everyone to keep their files secure."
