Companies with software applications can now bolt-in SentryBay’s “EntryProtect” technology to prevent corporate data theft and unauthorized access to their applications. Companies with web applications can utilize EntryProtect to prevent the uplifting of user names/passwords, credit card numbers, social security numbers and all other personal identifiers. EntryProtect is unique because it is application-specific – it is integrated to protect all users of that application from key logging spyware.

Earlier releases of SentryBay’s EntryProtect technology have been licensed for use by a number of high profile public companies. For example, EntryProtect is already in use in 70,000 businesses internationally with Bartercard Plc -- the world’s largest trade exchange -- where the technology secures entry to their web-based member’s portal.

CEO Dave Waterson says: ”Software companies today want high security, but they cannot control the security environment of their users. The information entered is being stolen as it is typed. Moreover login details are uplifted – meaning the gate is open for cyber criminals to enter the application – and all information accessed via that application. EntryProtect is integrated with the software application to protect all sensitive data entry within that application – thwarting all software based keystroke loggers.”

EntryProtect’s multi-layered approach to anti-key logging includes eight separate techniques operating at all levels of the operating system and application. It thwarts all types of software key loggers -- from attacks at kernel level through to text grabbing and even screen grabbing attacks. It provides full protection regardless of the local admin rights of the user. SentryBay’s anti-key logging technology is patent-pending with filings dating back to 2002. All patent filings have had clear examinations to date from the US Patent and Trademark Office.

SentryBay’s technology can be integrated into any PC-based applications such as financial services applications, data storage applications, ERP/SCM applications, software utilities, ECM/Business intelligence applications and defense/government applications. EntryProtect is also suitable for integration with a wide range of web-based applications such as online banking, online stock trading, e-commerce sites, online auction sites and e-government applications.
