The Yoggie Pico Personal Security Computer achieves ultimate industry recognition with award from world-leading Consumer Electronics Show
November 2007 by Marc Jacob
Yoggie Security Systems announced that its Internet Security device has been awarded "Best of Innovations 2008 – Computer Accessories" by the Consumer Electronics Show (CES). The Yoggie Pico™ is a USB key-sized Personal Security Computer with 12 security applications. It connects to any PC or laptop - blocking Internet threats outside the host computer and boosting PC and laptop performance by offloading installed security software.
For Yoggie Security Systems™ this award is the latest in a string of prestigious industry awards and accolades that have followed the launch of its range of personal security computers onto the market. The list includes Business Week/IDSA Silver Idea Award, Red Herring Top 100, RSA Innovation Award, Network World ‘Top Ten Security Companies to Watch’ and a host of product recommendations from leading computing, consumer and business publications.
The Yoggie Pico™ is a sleek, silver USB-key, but is in fact a full-blown computer with its own processor, memory and unique operating system. It combines best-of-breed security software with proprietary patent-pending developments to provide the most comprehensive all-in-one security technology available to consumers today.
The Yoggie Pico™ delivers plug and forget functionality. Users do not have to worry about updates as it automatically checks for them each time it connects to the Internet, and manages the entire process. The device does not require complex installation, configuration or ongoing management (although advanced users can alter the configuration should they wish to).
With the Yoggie Pico™ providing Pentagon-level security for their home PC or laptop, consumers no longer need to run software-based security suites. This means increased performance for their computer.
In addition, the Yoggie Pico™ has parental controls built in and can be configured so that, if it is disconnected (by a child wanting access to off-limits websites) Internet access will be denied.
