SACM Announcement
es' New Biometric Firewall, SACcat(TM), Available Through Rental Program
MINNEAPOLIS, Dec. 10 /PRNewswire/ -- SAC Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: SACM)
announced today that SACcat(TM), the industry's first real-time identification
system for securing individual and network computer workstations, is available
through a rental program. System administrators can now enjoy the benefits of
biometrically secured workstations, at little cost, through SAC Technologies'
SACcat(TM) rental program.
The System's Administrator Controlled Computer Access Terminal, or
SACcat(TM), is a simple and cost-effective security tool for biometrically
securing individual computer workstations and networks. SACcat(TM) supports
Windows, Novell and UNIX environments.
SACcat(TM) represents the Company's first commercial bundling of its core
technology with turn-key mainstream applications. The applications consist of
Workstation-Logon, which controls who can boot and operate a computer;
Screen-Saver-Lockout, which secures a workstation when a user is away from his
or her desk; Local-Network-Logon and Remote-Network-Logon, which restrict who
has access to a specific network and what applications can be run, all of
which utilize a user's unique fingerprint-based Bio-Key. Future options
(available 1998) will provide for the additional ability to selectively
encrypt program and data files on a workstation along with node-to-node
network communications utilizing a person's unique Bio-Key.
Since the SACcat(TM) system is a real-time identification technology
versus other verification or authentication systems, the user can restrict
access to his or her information resources without the use of passwords, pin
numbers, cards or tokens.
Mr. Don Johnson, Senior Sales Executive for the SACcat(TM) Reseller's
Rental Program, stated, "An option of the SACcat(TM) rental program is that it
may allow an organization to expense a security solution. For less than
thirty-cents a day, a network workstation can be secured, controlled,
monitored and audited utilizing state-of-the-art biometric technology. We
believe SACcat(TM) will provide a more affordable alternative to existing
software and hardware firewall solutions while providing the additional
security of biometric identification."
SAC's Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Barry Wendt, added, "We are targeting
Value Added Resellers (VARs), system integrators, and distributors to market
the SACcat(TM) program. We believe that by offering this affordable rental
program, organizations can experience, first-hand, the benefits of Biometric
security controls with minimal financial investment. This rental program
makes Biometric technology a viable option for organizations seeking to
enhance the security of their computer workstations and networks."
The SACcat(TM) program is available for immediate installation. For more
