Yoggie targets online gamers and parents with Yoggie Gatekeeper Internet security products

· Yoggie Gatekeeper SOHO delivers security and parental control for online activity

· Yoggie Gatekeeper Pro makes online gaming faster and more secure

12 November, 2007, New York, USA: The Yoggie Gatekeeper SOHO™ and the Yoggie Gatekeeper Pro™ are part of Yoggie Security Systems™ stable of Personal Security Servers: miniature computers, the size of a credit card, with their own processors and memory, that provide 13 layers of integrated security for the PC or laptop. These multiple award-winning Internet security devices represent a true ‘first’ for both parents and gamers – delivering unrivalled online protection while speeding up computer performance and, for families, providing strong parental controls.

The level of security is equivalent to that employed by the FBI. In fact, it’s like having your own security server that’s small enough to fit into your back pocket. All Internet traffic is routed through the devices and ‘cleansed’ before it gets to the host computer – as opposed to traditional software security applications where the fight against Internet borne threats takes place inside the host computer. Since the Yoggie Gatekeeper SOHO and Pro™ use their own hardware to run the security, the host computer performance is boosted as it no longer needs security software installed.

With simple ‘plug and forget’ installation, each time the Yoggie Gatekeeper Pro or SOHO™ connect to the Internet, they check for updates which are installed without any user action. The Yoggie Gatekeepers™ offers firewall, intrusion detection, intrusion prevention, Anti-Virus, Anti-Spyware, Anti-Spam, Anti-Phishing and parental control, as well as three unique Yoggie™ patented applications to guard users and repel viruses, spyware, malware and hackers. They even include technology to protect against new security threats not yet known to standard anti-virus software.

Yoggie’s solution is the world’s first Personal Security Server: a credit card size Linux-based 520 Mbps computer with 13 built-in security applications and 128 MB memory.

The Yoggie Gatekeeper SOHO™

Plugging straight into the network router – the gadget that connects the family’s computers to the Internet – Yoggie’s Gatekeeper SOHO™ – allows parental control from outside a child’s computer and filters unwanted content and messages.

Access to sites offering inappropriate content can be prevented. E-mails ‘phishing’ for information such as passwords which your youngsters may be tempted to answer are blocked. As are e-mails, which, if opened, can unleash software sent to spy on your personal information such as banking and credit card details. What’s more, if one of the children removes the Yoggie Gatekeeper SOHO™, inadvertently, or in order to access potential inappropriate content, the computer will simply not connect to the Internet.

Protecting up to five computers in one household couldn’t be simpler. Users require no technological background as the unit is plugged in between the internet connection and router/switch. The Yoggie Gatekeeper SOHO™ offers a revolutionary approach that significantly improves security and the 13 applications include firewall, intrusion detection, intrusion prevention, Anti-Virus, Anti-Spyware, Anti-Spam, Anti-Phishing and parental control, as well as three unique Yoggie™ patented applications.

The Yoggie Gatekeeper Pro™ offers Internet security at its best

As the popularity of online gaming has increased, so has the threat of keylogging, account hacking, viruses and other security threats. While there are many security software suites on the market, most of them cannot keep up with today’s threats and running large suites drains performance just when games are placing increasing demands on available memory and processor power.

For the first time ever, gamers can ‘connect and forget’ a USB miniature personal security server that seamlessly provides laptop and desktop security. By offloading 13 security applications, the Yoggie Gatekeeper Pro™ also boosts performance.

About Yoggie Security Systems™

Yoggie Security Systems™ was established in 2005 by Shlomo Touboul, former founder and CEO of Finjan Software, and the inventor of Behavior Based Blocking Technology. As a result of countless meetings with IT managers around the world, Mr. Touboul realized they all share a common concern – while security technology has matured to provide robust security, traveling laptops create security holes that jeopardize the security of the entire corporate network. Mr. Touboul decided to dare the impossible, to try to miniaturize all the security appliances found in the corporate server room into a credit-card size device that can be easily carried and connected to the laptop.

The attempt was successful. After two years of intensive research, the world’s first miniature security appliance was created – Yoggie Gatekeeper™. Putting all the security solutions into such a small device requires robust processing power, and indeed the Yoggie Gatekeeper is as strong as a full-blown Pentium III PC (520 MHz). But unlike a regular PC, it was designed as a security hardware, with a hardened operating system and physical separation between the unsafe zone (Internet) and the safe zone (connected to the laptop). The Yoggie Gatekeeper™, and the newer (USB key-sized) Yoggie Pico™, solve the vulnerabilities of traveling laptops by effectively extending robust corporate security to the traveling workforce. In addition to serving the corporate world, both the Gatekeeper and Pico are suitable for SMBs and home users.

Yoggie also has wide industry recognition: Winner of RSA Innovation Station 2007, Red Herring 100 Europe 2007, is Personal Computer World Recommended, Techworld short listed and winner of the IDSA and Business Week Silver IDEA award. The company continues to expand rapidly through its growing worldwide network of first class distributors and e-store.
