New Software Generates A Complete Report Of Privacy Vulnerabilities And Provides Effortless Comprehensive Control
BOSTON - June 6, 2005 - Winferno Software today announced PC Confidential®, an information privacy program for the home and enterprise user. Features include detailed privacy reports, a data file shredder exceeding Department of Defense standards for data removal, and comprehensive tools for managing user history files. These history files -- such as browser cache and cookies, Internet and media player histories, chat logs, temporary files and the recycle bin, can be used to gain access to sensitive information. PC Confidential brings controls that are both far-reaching and fully customizable into one easy-to-use program.
The program provides a one-stop interface that controls and manages the files that track and record virtually every computer action. Over time, data builds up in these files, which not only slows the system down but also can be exploited to access sensitive information such as clues about the user’s habits, addresses, passwords, and credit card numbers along with other material a person or institution wants to remain private.
PC Confidential allows the user to generate a total system privacy report, detailing the information that is at risk. The user then determines what information is sensitive or unnecessary, purges it, and uses the Security Zone feature to tailor future preferences to automatically remove the information that poses a threat and maintain the harmless files that make the overall computing experience more efficient.
In a business setting where computers are often recycled to new users or to different departments, PC Confidential is an extremely useful tool for ensuring that private or classified records are not compromised. By using ten magnetically disruptive scrub passes followed by a final overwrite with random number keys, the data file shredder guarantees that information is permanently removed and cannot be recovered.
"Whether you are protecting information on a computer with multiple users or preparing a computer for sale, donation or redeployment, PC Confidential is the best solution," said Jon Lal, CEO of Winferno Software. "Winferno Software has always been about providing powerful tools to make the overall computing experience safer, easier and more secure -- and PC Confidential is a perfect example."
