WINMAGIC LAUNCHES MySecureDoc™ FOR
ONLY $29.95: THE FIRST
FULL-DISK ENCRYPTION SOLUTION PRICED FOR ANY USER
MySecureDoc Enables Any User To
Protect All Data On Desktops, Laptops, And Easily-Stolen Storage
Devices With A Full-Disk Encryption Solution Based On The Same
Technology Utilized By The NSA
Mississauga, Ontario: April 11, 2006
– WinMagic Inc., the innovative leader in full-disk encryption,
today launched MySecureDoc™ (www.MySecureDoc.com),
the first line of full-disk encryption solutions specifically priced
for the individual consumer and home office/small business user.
Based on WinMagic’s encryption software certified by the National
Security Agency (NSA) to safeguard U.S. government secret
information, MySecureDoc makes it simple for any user to protect
themselves from potentially-devastating data theft for just
US$29.95.
“If the entire hard drive is not encrypted, it is impossible to
guarantee data security on computers and easily-stolen mobile
devices,” said Thi Nguyen-Huu, President & CEO, WinMagic.
“WinMagic has been providing full-disk encryption software
solutions to organizations with the strictest security mandates,
such as the NSA, Homeland Security, and the Royal Canadian Mounted
Police, for over nine years, and is proud to be the first to make
this security measure available to everyone at a terrific price.”
Priced at just US$29.95, MySecureDoc Personal Edition is the
only product designed specifically for the home office/small
business user. Compatible with Windows 2000/XP, MySecureDoc protects
all data on desktops and laptops by encrypting the entire hard drive
before the operating system brings up the logon screen to prevent
intruders from bypassing the encryption level. MySecureDoc’s
“install-and-forget” functionality provides user-friendly real-time
data protection that is completely transparent to the user.
Built on the same FIPS 140-1 level 2 validated
cryptographic engine utilized by WinMagic’s certified Professional
Edition, and incorporating the same AES 256-bit encryption
algorithm, MySecureDoc offers more features than many “enterprise”
products. These features include data recovery in the event of virus
infection or hardware failure and encryption of all residual data,
temporary files, paging files, and hidden partitions often left
unprotected by other encryption solutions. MySecureDoc also provides
disk imaging capabilities and full support for Windows built-in
defragmentation software and hibernation mode.
At only US$19.95, MySecureDoc Media Edition
is perfect for protecting all data on easily-lost removable storage
devices, such as external USB drives, USB sticks, and SD Cards.
Unlike most encryption solutions that only encrypt the file and
folders in use, MySecureDoc Media Edition encrypts the entire media
and asks for authentication before granting access to the device.
MySecureDoc Personal Edition Plus combines
the functionality of Personal Edition and Media Edition for only
US$49.95.
“As highlighted by the Fidelity Investments’ security breach
where personal information from 196,000 pension plan participants
was stolen from a single laptop, unencrypted data can easily be
compromised,” said Thi Nguyen-Huu. “WinMagic firmly
believes that all data on every computer should be encrypted, and
has priced MySecureDoc at under 30 dollars so that all users can
afford this peace of mind.”
MySecureDoc is available directly from WinMagic or through Tiger
