FutureSoft Announces the Launch of New Integrated Endpoint Security Management Solution

HOUSTON, TX-July 24, 2007

FutureSoft today announced the launch of DynaComm PointGuard, an integrated endpoint security management solution that provides organizations with the ability to secure intellectual property, measure and maintain regulatory compliance, harden systems against infection from malware and control the use of removable media devices such as USB drives.

“This product represents a new, integrated approach to managing a range of endpoint business issues and security threats,” commented Tim Farrell, CEO and founder of FutureSoft.  “Our experience in the security space built over the last several years, including providing security technology to Microsoft for their next generation products, has provided us with a clear view of where the critical security and business drivers impact organizations.  This product provides real business-enabling security capabilities that give measurable return on investment from the day they are installed.”

DynaComm PointGuard uses a combination of agent and agentless technology to provide organization-wide threat assessment capabilities, and then feeds that information into the policy-creation process.  Once policies are defined for an organization, they can be implemented and enforced all from a central management console.

Benefits include:

• USB and removable media management
• Real-time system protection
• Local and remote device management
• Malware removal
• Intellectual property scanning and security
• Real-time file access control
• Centralized policy-creation and enforcement
• Full-auditing and reporting

The ability to manage such threats as external Trojan and malware attacks, internal data theft, device misuse and even application inventory and lock-down, from one centralized system, gives organizations unprecedented management and correlation capabilities.

“Instead of simply shutting-down IT capabilities and therefore reducing business flexibility, DynaComm PointGuard enables businesses to securely manage how resources are used,” said Geoff Webb, Director of Security Products at FutureSoft.  “This technology will enable control so granular that a business can track when a remote user with a laptop copied a specific file onto a USB thumb drive, enforcing the kind of business-centric policy controls on endpoint usage that stops data theft and endpoint-focused attacks from becoming significant business threats.”

Availability

DynaComm PointGuard, available both as a pre-configured appliance and a software-only option, is available from FutureSoft partners, resellers and integrators as well as directly from FutureSoft in the United States and Europe.
