Speaker: Russell Jones, President & CEO

Sentinel Vision is a provider of vision-based security alarm notification services to the multi-family market as well as verification services for the traditional security alarm industry. The Company is providing solutions that meet confirmed unmet demand with superior services that include visual and audio verification at dramatically lower price points. After a $5M development requiring over 20 engineers, Sentinel Vision is shipping its patented solution, SafeScout. SafeScout is a superior stand-alone solution, and yet can be used to complement a traditional system. Within 15 minutes the SafeScout system is up and operational because there are no in-the-wall wires and no computer or networking requirements. When the SafeScout on-site intelligent monitor is activated the wireless siren sounds, and the monitor sends images, sound and text information to the Company’s proprietary data center. These servers process the alarm information and then send voice and text alerts along with verification images and sound of the event to the customer’s, and their designated parties’ telephones, cellular phones, pagers, image capable cellular phones and email addresses. Importantly, the customer can have the verification images and sound sent to a traditional central station for appropriate action including calling the police. The SafeScout system offers several additional services including the ability to send verified alerts when children come home, a repairman/employee arrives or leaves, or when the keyfob panic button is pressed. Sentinel Vision is rapidly expanding traditional and non-traditional distribution channels, and in the second or third quarter of this year the Company will raise an equity round to meet its growing working capital needs.

Secure network access, password management and user identity issues are becoming a matter of great concern for organizations of all sizes. Add to this industry and government regulatory compliance requirements and the problem becomes even more demanding. And, while IT systems and applications are in need of greater security, organizations increasingly also need to directly link physical and logical access based on their existing infrastructure investments. While network logon, single sign-on, 2-factor authentication (OTP tokens, finger print biometrics, smart cards, proximity cards, physical access cards, etc.) and physical access technologies have been available to deal with these issues for some time, they have never been cost effectively combined to deliver a single integrated intelligent Enterprise Single Access solution – until now. Imprivata has changed all that. We are enabling Enterprise Single Access (ESA) and making it available to the mainstream market. Packaging our technology solutions in a simple to install and maintain hardened appliance is central to our vision of making it extremely easy for organizations to deploy and manage network, physical and application access as a critical component of their core security infrastructure. Having breakthrough technology makes this goal possible. The OneSign platform provides a simple, secure mechanism for authenticating network users, providing single sign-on to all enterprise applications and combining physical access control systems with IT access management for greater security and convenience.

Dragnet Solutions, Inc. is an identity management service provider. The company uniquely enables financial institutions, casinos, rental car companies and retailers to prevent financial crimes from occurring against them. Today, these crimes represent a $5 billion annual problem for the U.S. Banking Industry alone. Financial crimes are routinely facilitated by a "gateway crime" called Identity Fraud... the very crime that Dragnet Solutions combats. Dragnet leverages its sophisticated and proprietary software platform to automatically unveil criminal behavior. The service subsequently notifies subscribers in real-time the moment that a known criminal is attempting to steal from them, thereby preventing the crime from occurring, enabling apprehension and paving the way for potential restitution for previous crimes. The underlying platform combines advanced neural clustering algorithms, meta-data inference engines, biometric facial recognition technologies and a deep understanding of financial crime patterns to deliver a revolutionary solution. Crime is a lifestyle that spans multiple industries and geographies. The broad nature of Dragnet's centralized service offering magnifies the value of each subscriber's success through the powerful benefit of network inoculation. Once criminal activity is confirmed by a subscriber, all other subscribers are optionally inoculated against financial crimes conducted by that criminal.

Validation infrastructure In the public sector, the US Department of Defense uses CoreStreet PKI products to validate digital signatures and secure Web and application servers as part of their Common Access Card program, which is one of the largest smartcard programs in the world. According to the program director at the U.S. Department of Defense, “With the new architecture from CoreStreet, the process is so quick that it is transparent to the user, and we’re now able to ensure the security and validity of digitally signed communications.” Other NATO countries are using CoreStreet validation infrastructure for their government and civilian ID programs. Private companies, such as pharmaceutical companies, and industry consortia, including the SAFE-Biopharma Association, use CoreStreet’s PKI products to reduce their cost of operations and increase security at the company and industry levels. Cost savings from in the biopharmaceutical industry were conservatively estimated at more than $200 million per year, according to the Association. Physical access and convergence CoreStreet licenses technology to manufacturers of physical access control products. Using CoreStreet’s Card-Connected architecture, security can be extended to stand alone locations at a cost that is roughly half the cost of traditional solutions. Indala, Sargent, Omnikey, Entrust, and Cybertrust, among others, have announced that they are building CoreStreet-enabled products and services. CoreStreet technology is also used to ensure compliance with HSPD-12, which requires that government employees and contractors be issued a single credential for access to government buildings and computer systems. Mobile ID checking CoreStreet technology is extended to mobile environments through the PIVMAN System. The system, which was recently demonstrated during exercises in the National Capital Region involving first responders from several federal, state, and local organizations, validates FIPS 201-compliant credentials so that those on the front lines know who to admit to a secure area even when all networks are down. CoreStreet offices CoreStreet has offices in Cambridge, Washington, London, and Milan, and representatives in Europe and Asia. More information is at www.CoreStreet.com.
