SecuriKey Debuts SecuriKey Professional 1.50, Featuring Intel Mac Support
‘Best of CES’ Winning Security Technology Also Provides Full Compatibility
with PowerPC-based Mac and Windows PCs
LAWRENCE, KS (June 15th, 2006) — SecuriKey, a leading provider of
information security solutions for data protection and user authentication,
today announced the launch of SecuriKey Professional 1.50, an important
update to its award winning two-factor user authentication and computer
security product. Featuring new support for Intel-based Macs such as the
iMac and Mac Mini desktop computers and the MacBook and MacBook Pro
notebook computers, SecuriKey Professional 1.50 is the only heterogeneous
token-based security solution for controlling access to numbers of mobile
and/or desktop PCs.
Combining award-winning ease of use with enterprise level security,
SecuriKey Professional 1.50 also includes complete backwards compatibility
with older PowerPC-based Macs as well as cross-platform compatibility with
Windows PCs running Windows XP, Windows 2000 and Windows 2003 Server.
“As the problems associated with stolen laptops, data theft, and
unauthorized network access continue to rise, the need for a strong access
control solution has turned critical,” said Bennett Griffin, CEO and
founder of SecuriKey. “As the recent incident with the VA demonstrates, it
only takes one stolen laptop to affect millions of people. SecuriKey v1.50
solves the problem with terrific capabilities that make it a robust, easy
to use, and cost effective alternative for both small to medium networks
and for fleets of laptop computers, which are often the weak link in an
organization’s computer security infrastructure.”
SecuriKey combines USB token and password technologies to provide totally
secure, yet user- friendly computer access control. The product works
essentially as an “ignition key” for the user’s laptop or desktop
computer–simply insert the token in any available USB slot, enter the
correct password, and access to the computer is granted. Because SecuriKey
is so intuitive to use, user training is minimized.
Pricing and Availability
SecuriKey Professional 1.50 for Windows/Mac platforms is currently shipping
worldwide. A single user package, including all software and a matched pair
of USB keys, is priced at $129.99. Larger multi-user packages are also
available. To purchase SecuriKey Professional 1.50 or any of the SecuriKey
user authentication solutions, call SecuriKey at +1-800-986-6578 or visit
