SkyRecon Gets Top 5-Star Rating in SC Magazine Review


SAN JOSE, CA--(Marketwire - April 13, 2009) - SkyRecon® Systems (www.skyrecon.com) today announced it has received five out of five stars and "pick of the litter" in a group test that evaluated several market-leading endpoint security products and published in the April issue of SC Magazine. SkyRecon's StormShield suite was also pegged "this month's choice for recommended product."

The review specifically called out SkyRecon's StormShield suite options for preventing keyloggers, protection against memory overflows, CPU overuse, privilege escalation and blocking of copy/paste functionality, saying the application's security and host-based intrusion prevention system (HIPS) capabilities were among the best the reviewers had experienced.

The review also stated that StormShield is "a great solution for an organization that wants to cover all aspects of endpoint security," and named it a "complete integrated package." StormShield's support for device control, encryption, anti-malware, network access control and wireless security control were identified as key features in providing comprehensive endpoint security.

StormShield received five stars in the following categories: Features, Ease of Use, Performance and Value for Money.

"The review in SC Magazine shows that for total endpoint security, StormShield is a great deal for organizations that are serious about protecting their data," said SkyRecon VP of Business Development, Sean Martin, CISSP. "It also highlights our continuing commitment to providing a winner-take-all endpoint security solution that is easy to use and remains affordable, while delivering top-notch security."

StormShield Security Suite is a unified endpoint security, data protection, and access control solution. It has been developed with the specific intention of bringing together the operational continuity requirements of the business and its IT systems, with the need to properly protect those operations using a single-sourced range of protection facilities.
