MISSISSAUGA, Ontario. January 12, 1999WinMagic Inc., developers of
data security solutions, today announced the availability of a beta
version of SecureDoc 2.0 disk encryption software. This new version
of SecureDoc blends the latest breakthroughs in information security
technology, making it the one of the most advanced security products
in its class. The intended market for SecureDoc 2.0 is security
conscious governments, enterprises, and end-users. Release of the
completed version is scheduled for March 1999.
This upcoming version of SecureDoc is proof of our continuing
commitment to provide both the public and private sectors with high
quality security software,” says Thi Nguyen-Huu, CEO of WinMagic.
This new version will be easy to use and feature-rich. With Y2K
spending subsiding and greater emphasis on information security,
companies are looking at Information Security more closely. They are
rejecting other methods of encryption and turning to Disk Encryption
as a safeguard for their data. We anticipate our percentage of the
market will increase substantially with the final release of
SecureDoc 2.0.”
SecureDoc 2.0 will contain an impressive array of features. Designed
for Windows 95/98 & NT, it will provide total protection for all
information on a computers disk. SecureDocs new Boot Protection
feature with Single Sign On will ensure users with valid passwords
only need to log in once for both SecureDoc and Windows NT. The
software then disappears and operates transparently in the
background. By encrypting a computers entire hard disk using
industry standard 3DES or CAST algorithms, information will never be
at risk. And Administrators will enjoy SecureDoc’s quick
installation, user management/retrieval capabilities, and its
capacity to employ hardware tokens such as SmartCards.
WinMagic Inc. is a privately held company located in Mississauga,
