Yoggie Gatekeeper Personal, Yoggie Gatekeeper SOHO Announced

Yoggie Security Systems has announced the release of the Yoggie Gatekeeper Personal and Yoggie Gatekeeper SOHO, the newest versions of its Yoggie Gatekeeper series of credit-card sized security appliances. The Yoggie Gatekeeper Personal is designed to protect consumers' laptops and PCs, while the Yoggie Gatekeeper SOHO protects up to five networked computers in private homes or small offices.

For the first time ever, consumers can 'connect and forget' a USB miniature computer that seamlessly provides laptop and desktop security by uniquely offloading security software components, which often sap precious computing resources and degrade a computing device's performance. The Yoggie Gatekeeper series include firewall, Intrusion Detection, Intrusion Prevention, Anti Virus, Anti Spyware, Anti SPAM, Anti Phishing and Parental control, as well as three unique Yoggie patented applications. "This hassle free appliance makes enterprise level security universal while significantly improving productivity and performance of computing devices", said Shlomo Touboul, Founder and CEO of Yoggie Security Systems "Our consumer versions provide the same functionality as the Yoggie Gatekeeper Pro, but without the purely corporate applications – the VPN client and the Yoggie Management Server interface".

The Yoggie Gatekeeper Personal offers 13 integrated security applications on one device so eliminating the need for multiple security software components that may conflict with each other. The technology presents a revolutionary alternative to the current software only security applications that consume much of the laptop/desktop performance, provide less security and require end user intervention to customize and operate.

The Yoggie Gatekeeper Personal offers:
1. A hassle free hardware-based security solution - does not require complicated installation and configuration – just plug and forget;
2. Increases laptop/desktop performance by offloading 13 security applications onto one piece of dedicated hardware;
3. No need to install heavy software products that pop up with confusing messages;
4. Internet updates on hourly basis, without disturbing the user or hampering laptop resources;
5. Simple and the intuitive one step security - plug in the USB for FBI-level security;
6. Prevents unprotected or unauthorized internet access. By removing the Yoggie Gatekeeper Personal from the computer (or network for SOHOs) all network connections are stopped.;
7. Children cannot access the internet without the security and parent control of the Yoggie Gatekeeper Personal;
8. Protection from Web and Mail threats via one simple to use appliance;
9. Affordable centralized security solution;
10. Simple installation - place Yoggie Gatekeeper Personal between the internet router and your home switch to protect all the computers in the home network;
11. All-in-one solution – no need to purchase and integrate multiple security solutions.

Yoggie Security Systems is also launching the Yoggie Gatekeeper SOHO which also provides enterprise level security for up to five networked computers. Yoggie Security Systems is the only company to provide such a comprehensive security suite in a USB appliance. The Yoggie Gatekeeper Personal has 13 layers of integrated software, physical separation of the laptop from the network, embedded hardened operating system that cannot be penetrated through its 2 Flash memory system and patented data mining based security agents.
