Power On Beefs Up Security With New On Guard for Macintosh Anti-tampering Software Gains Enhanced Synergy with Third Party Products New Albany, Ohio - April 18, 2002 -- Power On Software today announced the release of On Guard for Macintosh version 3.4, an update to its industry-leading security and computer access management software. On Guard is a powerful cross-platform anti-tampering product that protects valuable computer files and folders from unauthorized access or unwanted changes. It is ideally suited for environments such as schools and workgroups, where a computer is accessible by others, including situations where a single computer may be shared by more than one user. On Guard permits each computer to be customized for multiple users so that each user's access is limited to those files and folders that are needed for that user to perform specific functions. Nonessential areas may be totally eliminated from access. Highlights of the new release include: * The addition of enhanced support for Apple's Navigation Services and the ability to prevent files from being saved into protected folders. * Increased security by preventing the use of the Finder's Duplicate command on protected items. * Allowing removable USB and SCSI volumes such as Zip Drives and external floppy drives to be recognized as "Floppies/Removables" and easily configured in the Security Tab of the On Guard Control Panel. * Adding support to disable certain Internet Explorer menu items and to protect the Internet Explorer preferences so that users cannot change the download location from an area designated by the administrator. On Guard is the Editor's Choice and User's Favorite On Guard is the only product in its class to offer a single, consistent interface in a cross-platform environment and has won the prestigious Editor's Choice award from Computer Times. Writing in the current issue of Communique, Steven Shore, notes that, "...I would recommend On Guard as my first choice for Macintosh security," an opinion echoed by Chris Thorliefson, Instructional Technology Supervisor, writing in T.H.E. Journal who observed: "After trying out a number of programs, I recommended Power On Software's On Guard program for its ultimate configuration flexibility. I found On Guard easy to use and it is competitively priced." Pricing and Availability On Guard for Macintosh version 3.4, available now, has a suggested retail price of $69.95. Educational pricing and site licenses are also available. Power On Software products are distributed by Ingram Micro and are available from fine resellers everywhere.
