Don't leave your personal information exposed the risks of attack, loss, and theft

SkyRecon ClearShield Privacy Edition uses powerful file encryption and behavioral-based anti-spyware technologies to protect your personal and confidential data from being viewed, even if your computer is lost or stolen. ClearShield prevents the theft of confidential files and sensitive information by allowing you to control the use of external drives and other removable devices.

File protection in the event of a lost or stolen computer

File encryption is an extremely powerful technology that effectively scrambles the information in your personal files and prevents other people from viewing or reading them. When you enter your password to unlock the files, they are de-scrambled and become available for you to use. Without this password, no hackers or thieves can view, read, or use your personal information for their gain. So, if a thief somehow gets their hands on your computer and your personal files, they are essentially useless to them because they are encrypted by ClearShield.
 

Block keyloggers and other malicous programs

A keylogger is a type of surveillance software that can record every keystroke you make. A keylogger recorder can record instant messages, e-mail, and any information you type at any time using your keyboard. The information collected by the keylogger is stored in a log file which can then be sent to the hacker or thief). Some keylogger programs will record e-mail addresses you use and Web site URLs you visit. They will use this information to compromise not just you and your data, but all of your contacts – friends, family, co-workers – as well. 

Spyware is a type of malicious software that can be installed on your personal computer without your consent with the intent of intercepting and/or taking partial control over your actions on the computer. Unlike keyloggers that monitor your keystroke activity, spyware extends well beyond simple monitoring to much more intrusive behavior such as installing additional software, re-directing your browser to different internet sites, and even changing your computer settings. Spyware will use these techniques to both interfere with your computing experience and to seek out personal information stored on your PC.

Precise control over external and removable devices

The risk of personal information and privacy theft becomes a reality with the widespread availability and use of removable devices such as large external USB drives, portable USB thumb drives, and the seemingly innocent MP3 players. While sitting in a coffee shop or airline lounge, a laptop left unattended for even a few moments could be compromised – without you ever knowing it.
