DriveShield PLUS™ Provides Consumers with Unprecedented Hard Drive and Data Protection, and a New Way to View Desktop Security
(ST. LOUIS, MO – December 15, 2004) – Centurion Technologies, Inc., a pioneer in proven drive and data protection hardware and software, announces the release of DriveShield PLUS™, hard-drive protection software for home computers. DriveShield PLUS provides enterprise-strength protection to home computers, keeping viruses, Spyware, trojans, worms and cookies from permanently invading the user’s hard drive.
The groundbreaking software shields the computer from Malware penetrating the hard drive and causing computer malfunctions. With DriveShield PLUS installed, consumers are empowered to safely surf the Internet without fearing the need to spend hours de-bugging their computers later. DriveShield PLUS saves consumers the money and time they spend to run spyware removal software.
The software write-protects the hard drive and records all changes to a temporary storage area. During use, the computer behaves as if all changes are permanent, giving the user a full experience. However, when the user reboots the computer, all changes are wiped from the computer, instantly restoring it to the user’s pre-determined configurations.
"This new technology will transform how consumers think about securing their computer," said Keith Rickman, vice president of Centurion Technologies. "DriveShield PLUS gives them peace of mind that their computers are safe from all the dangers they were previously susceptible to."
DriveShield PLUS also protects the home user from making accidental permanent changes to the hard drive. If a program is accidentally deleted, it will reappear on the computer when it is rebooted. In contrast, any files that a user must maintain can be created and saved in the Persistent Storage drive, a designated part of the hard drive that the software creates, where permanent files can be stored.
DriveShield PLUS offers users protection and privacy from invasive intruders before they reach the computer’s critical system files. This protection gives consumers the freedom to experiment and download files without the fear of permanently destroying their computer. This new technology saves users the time, money and grief it would take to repair negative consequences of an infected machine or stolen personal information.
DriveShield PLUS, which is compatible with Windows® 2000 and XP, can be purchased directly from Centurion Technologies, or from any of the company’s distributors and resellers for $59.99. For more information about DriveShield PLUS, visit www.centuriontech.com.
