Last night’s AMITPRO meeting saw a presentation from James Cole and Andy Dreier from Security IP. The Oxford-based company provides niche security solutions to IT resellers in the UK. Although they resell a wide range of security products, their focus last night was on Interguard suite and DataGuard.

Interguard is a collection of three complimentary products, designed as answer to internal security threats and includes the following:

• Sonar – monitoring and reporting of all employee computer activity on or off the corporate network
• Datalock – provides protection for IP, trade secrets and confidential data
• Laptop Cop – track and recover stolen laptops (or data)

The second part of the presentation featured DataGuard. This is an encryption solution aimed at home and small business users. Essentially a stripped down version of apSec’s fideAS file Enterprise product, the product handles full volume encryption as well as folder/USB memory stick protection. More information on both products can be found at Security IP’s web site: http://www.securityip.com

Thanks to both James and Andy for bringing these excellent products and solutions to the attention of the group.
