SafeBoot PC Security System
I helped setting up the DigiCash booth at the RSA conference last night when some guy in the same room with us handed me a copy of their SafeBoot PC Security System. It consists of a processor, real-time clock, some other gadgets, and a magnetic transducer -- all embedded in a 3.5 inch floppy casing -- as well as some supporting software. The system interacts with the read/write head of the floppy drive, pretending to be a floppy. It is supposed to do provide for secure drive encryption (DES) and other things. Seems they are giving away one of these devices to each attendee of the conference. Does anyone on this list have experience with this device? I understand it has been out for a while. I use a Mac at home, and while I am resposible for some PC's at work, these are used for alpha testing of hardware components only , which makes them pretty unstable the way it is and I don't really want to add more trouble just to them to give the device a good workout. Sounds interesting, though... -- Lucky Green <shamrock@netcom.com> PGP encrypted mail preferred.
