PRESS RELEASE BY SOFTEK LTD – 4th October 2011
Softek launch Free USB Flash Drive Management Software - SafeConsole LITE
Leading IT Security Distributor Softek today announces the immediate availability of a new, free version of the SafeConsole USB flash drive management software - SafeConsole LITE.
SafeConsole LITE is a special version of the most popular encrypted USB drive management solution in the world - Blockmaster's SafeConsole - available only from Exclusive UK Distributor Softek.
The new SafeConsole LITE software includes the most used, core features of SafeConsole - Password Complexity Policy Enforcement, Remote Password Reset, Device State Management (to Kills / Disable lost drives) as well as full Geolocation auditing and reporting.
“With all the recent high-profile data loss reports, customers are really starting to appreciate the need for managing their encrypted USB drives, they now understand the risks. The ability to know how many pen drives are being used, who is using them and what is on each drive at any given time is critical for compliance". Said Mike Bienvenu, Technical Director at Softek.
"Also important is the ability to remotely wipe a device when a staff member leaves or the drive is lost, to remotely reset a user's forgotten password, and to enforce a complex password policy” continued Bienvenu.
“Softek surveyed our partners and customers to see what features were used the most, what customers saw as the most important features of SafeConsole, and then we bundled them into a Lite version and have decided to provide it free of charge for a limited period.”
Customers who purchase 25+ drives from Softek’s SafeConsole Ready® collection of hardware encrypted USB devices will be eligible to the free 1 Year Subscription for SafeConsole LITES for the number of devices purchased.
“We want even more customers to gain the added protection that SafeConsole offers when using our Safeconsole Ready® devices, making it zero cost seemed the ideal way to enable those, who in these times of austerity, may be forced to forgo this critical step in protecting data from accidental or malicious loss.” Bienvenu concluded.
