Ensure Technologies, the award-winning leader in intelligent wireless PC security solutions, this week will preview its Bluetooth wireless security solution and announced that it is now ready for interoperability testing with other Bluetooth devices. Ensure's XyLoc will be featured this week at WinHEC 2000, the Windows Hardware Engineering Conference for advancing the Windows platform, Morial Convention Center, New Orleans, LA, April 24-27, 2000, Bluetooth Pavilion, Booth #532-Stand 9.
"We are excited to see the progress that Bluetooth is making in the industry and we continue to put a lot of effort behind the Bluetooth initiative," said George Brostoff, co-founder and president of Ensure Technologies. "We look forward to beginning interoperability testing with other Bluetooth adopters to demonstrate the added value that XyLoc delivers to Bluetooth-enabled devices. XyLoc continues to be recognized as a very compelling Bluetooth application that delivers convenience, personalization and security to Bluetooth appliances and devices."
Ensure's XyLoc is a robust personalization and security application that will showcase Bluetooth technology. As more Bluetooth devices come to market, security will become essential to protect these devices from unauthorized access. Using XyLoc's patented technology, network managers can easily load and manage digital certificates on any Bluetooth PC, phone or PDA, which will add powerful security features to Bluetooth devices and appliances. XyLoc will allow Bluetooth devices to positively recognize and identify authorized users and make Bluetooth phones and PDAs more convenient to use.
Bluetooth (www.bluetooth.com) is a group founded in 1998 by Ericsson, IBM, Intel, Nokia and Toshiba to create a global specification for short-range, wireless connectivity. Bluetooth SIG has grown to over 1,200 members, recently adding Microsoft, 3COM, Compaq, Dell, Hewlett-Packard, Lucent, Motorola, Philips, Samsung, Siemens and Texas Instruments. The Bluetooth wireless transmission standard provides an inexpensive way to link different wireless devices and enable them to interoperate. The Bluetooth wireless radio is being built into many devices and information appliances such as mobile phones (WAP-enabled and others), PDAs, PCs and others.
XyLoc is a patented, centrally managed, automatic computer security solution that prevents unauthorized access to confidential PC-based information, and simultaneously makes access to network services and applications more convenient for authorized employees. XyLoc's full-time access control technology protects sensitive data when it is most vulnerable - after logon, when the authorized user -for whatever reason - steps away from the PC.
Suited for professionals who need easy, yet secure, access to information "on the fly," XyLoc is proximity-activated and completely "hands-free," requiring no user interaction. Because it enables the computer to know automatically and effortlessly who is requesting access to its resources, XyLoc offers security features and flexibility previously unavailable. XyLoc also simplifies public key infrastructure (PKI) implementations and protects digital certificates stored on PCs increasing the security of e-commerce transactions.
