Press Release Edited By Applelinks Contributing Editor Charles W. Moore
Research Triangle Software, a leading manufacturer of portable security solutions and devices, has announced that their CryptoStick Software Suite can now be loaded on to an iPod mobile digital device and other portable devices for use with a Window based PC. This additional flexibility means the software can be used on many more devices than had been available up to now, expanding its ability to protect valuable data.
"It will work from virtually any device a computer will recognize as a USB removable drive," said David Wimsey, Senior Software Engineer at RTS. "This means it can be carried virtually anywhere the user goes."
The CryptoStick Software Suite has been available for use on the CryptoStick brand USB flash memory devices, and has gained wide acceptance in that form. "We see this as another stepping stone in our development of this technology," said Jeffrey W. LeRose, President and CEO of RTS. "It allows our software suite to be compatible with iPod devices and other portable devices allowing the user to get all the features previously available only on a USB flash memory device. This means a user will only need to carry their preferred mobile device to do email and private Internet browsing when connected to a Windows based personal computer."
This configuration brings the CryptoStick Software Suite to portable hard drives and other memory units previously unable to be used in this manner. The software is carried on the device, and not the internal hard drive of the Windows based computer. Nothing is ever installed on the host computer, and the software runs from the device to perform its encryption and other security functions. This provides the user with a flexible and secure way to protect valuable data and other information wherever necessary.
The CryptoStick Software Suite includes CryptoBuddy encryption and decryption applications from RTS as well as the RTS Private Internet Browsing software, allowing the user to browse the Internet without leaving a data trail on the host computer. Along with these are eTrust PestPatrol anti-spyware software from CA and the free Firefox browser, Thunderbird email client, and Sunbird calendar system from Mozilla. This suite of products makes up the most powerful grouping of personal security systems available today. The full suite of products is available at:
