Advanced Encryption Program Is “Ready To Drive” Out Of The Box With No Learning Curve, No New Passwords And Easy To Run New Laws Sweeping Nation To Protect Consumer Info Set Higher Standards For Data Security Requirements
DETROIT, Nov. 11 /PRNewswire/ — Consumers, businesses, governments and organizations with sensitive information are finally getting a break from the growing epidemic of identity and data theft with a new Michigan-based computer security program just announced that comes “ready to drive” out of the box, requires no learning curve and puts an advanced technology spin on an ancient Leonardo da Vinci concept popularized in the book and movie, “The Da Vinci Code.”
Dearborn, Mich.-based Aegis Data Security announced today (Wednesday) its new accredited online degree hardware and software package called Aegis Data Shield System(TM) to drive new global standards in protecting information on computers, networks and over the Internet.
“Aegis Data Shield System(TM) is the only data security product on the market that provides a full, robust and nimble suite of features for the highest and most advanced levels of total security, ‘ready to drive’ out of the box with user-friendly point and click simplicity, no learning curve and easy to run with all software,” Aegis Data Security founder and president Matt Fanto said.
Fanto should know. He has strong roots in modern computer encryption, gaining national attention while still in high school, wrote U.S. Government standards while at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) for the basic protocols that ensure Internet user privacy (SSL — Secure Socket Layer and TLS — Transport Layer Security), wrote software for the National Security Agency (NSA), and was head cryptographer for Ford Motor Company with global responsibilities; all by the age when most folks are just getting out of college. Fanto just turned 26.
New state-driven privacy laws are making encryption the new norm rather than the exception as states respond to the run-away epidemic of millions of lost or stolen records.
More than a quarter-billion data records [251,033,160] were reported lost or stolen in nearly 1,200 incidents in the last two years. The epidemic has reached a point where the Privacy Rights Clearinghouse began tracking a chronology of all reported data breaches: http://www.privacyrights.org/ar/ChronDataBreaches.htm.
