PC Guardian Introduces USB Port Security System to Prevent Unauthorized Data Transfer & Reduce the Risk of Data Theft



PC Guardian's USB Port Security System reduces the risk of data leakage, data theft, computer viruses, and malware by physically locking and blocking USB ports from unauthorized access.

San Rafael, CA -- February 9, 2007 -- PC Guardian, a premier manufacturer of computer and data security products, announced today the launch of its new USB Port Security System.

In addition, it provides continued, secure access for authorized USB devices by capturing the device's cable and locking it into the USB port.
