Phoenix Technologies Partners with Wick Hill

Phoenix Technologies, whose BIOS software ships in approximately 100 million PCs per year, has appointed Wick Hill to distribute its TrustConnector 2 and Recover Pro 6 products in the UK and Germany. Trust Connector 2 is device identity and authentication software for IP networks, aimed at the medium to high end; and Recover Pro 6 is a system recovery solution, suitable for most companies, particularly enterprises, ISPs, and companies with a heavy user support load.

Phoenix sees the opportunity to expand its sales of these products in the UK and Germany, particularly with the growth of mobile, wireless and remote computing. It has chosen Wick Hill because of the distributor's proven skills in growing the market for solutions in this area, as well as its in-depth experience in the whole field of security.

Phoenix TrustConnector 2 is easy-to-install device identity software that enables seamless, built-in identification of x86 devices to IP networks, while enhancing the protection of digital credentials for Windows applications. TrustConnector 2 creates a unique device identity that cannot be altered or stolen. It safeguards businesses against credential sharing and stealing, and limits access only to devices which have been granted access permission. TrustConnector 2 has been implemented as a universal cryptographic service provider (CSP) component for Windows machines that incorporates native platform sensing technology to examine the unique hardware configuration of every x86 system and activate the highest trust level possible for that system.

Now about Phoenix Recover Pro 6. This solution provides one-button PC recovery, even when Windows won't boot, without requiring recovery CDs or network access. Recover Pro 6 lets users completely restore the hard drive to a previously known working state, including operating system files, applications, settings, and data files or selectively restore a deleted or overwritten file or previously saved file revision. Recover Pro 6 offers unparalleled security because the actual recovery data is stored in a secure area of the hard drive that is not vulnerable to Windows disasters.
