WinMagic Partners With Vbsoft

WinMagic, Inc.
has partnered with VBSOFT (India) Ltd, an Indian managed
service provider, to meet the demand for its full-disk encryption
(FDE) technology in India.

The partnership will strengthen WinMagic’s presence and further promote its
suite of encryption solutions in the growing Indian market.

This partnership will enable VBSOFT to add WinMagic’s encryption solutions to
its portfolio of managed solutions. This includes the SecureDoc with PBConnex, a full-disk encryption solution with
pre-boot networking. PBConnex, an extension to SecureDoc, integrates
network support within the pre-boot environment to make it
simpler to authenticate users, enforce access controls and manage end-point
devices prior to the operating system loading – eliminating the user,
deployment and system management headaches previously associated with endpoint
data encryption.

"VBSOFT is always searching to find
the very best solutions to add to our ‘best-of-breed’ portfolio of products so
that we can provide unbeatable technology and value to our customers, and so we
are extremely pleased to announce that this partnership with WinMagic will
enable us to provide our customers with the best and most innovative data
protection available today," said Vivek Ogra, director, Technology
& Innovation, VBSOFT. "The only
way to ensure all data is protected is to ensure all data is encrypted, and
WinMagic makes deploying, managing and using an encrypted device just as simple
as an unencrypted device."

"Protecting all data is
critical for any organization, its partners and its clients, but unfortunately,
most organizations have been reticent about embracing full-disk encryption
because it has traditionally made networks less productive due to inherent
management and user difficulties," said Thi Nguyen-Huu, CEO of
WinMagic. "WinMagic is now
searching the globe for service providers that have the expert IT skills,
excellent customer service reputation and local market knowledge to make it
simple for organizations worldwide to purchase, install and deploy our
encryption technology – and VBSOFT meets all our criteria for India."
