PRESS RELEASE
December 15, 2009 " Washington, DC " BlockMaster (www.blockmastersecurity.com) a leading provider of secure USB devices, today launches SafeConsole 4.0, the web management software for SafeStick, the secure USB flash drive.

Publisher - enables users to run a virtual laptop from any computer using a secure USB device. Feature securely deploys software even when drives are in field - a cost-efficient way to deploy solutions to mobile workers

* SafeConsole Intro enforces the organization's password policy * SafeConsole Enforce includes the full range of policy enforcing features * SafeConsole Enforce & Enable multiplies the benefits of SafeStick and SafeConsole and enables all productivity boosting features
