Com-Guard is a public company which was incorporated in 1998 under the laws of the State of
Nevada. The Company has been doing consulting, strategic development and restructuring for the past
three years. It is in the process to emerge as a leading supplier of transactional software that will charge
a fee to merchants using its “Transactional Cash Engine Software”. A transaction fee will be paid by
the merchant or the cardholder. The fee charged is based on the volume of the transactions completed
by the merchant. “Thanks to the thousands of miles of fiber optic cable laid during the late 1990s, the
speed of computer networks has finally caught up to the speed of the computer processors. Suddenly
computers that were once incompatible and isolated are now linked in a giant network, or "cloud." (A
Motley Fool Special Report). The Company will provide its “Transactional Cash Engine Software” as a
service (SaaS).

ComputerSafeTM Security Software  
Detect – Protect – Notify


ComputerSafe™ detects, protects, and reports a variety computer system security threats, including identity theft and firewall break-ins more effectively than any other product or service.  It can also be instrumental in recovering lost or stolen computers.


ComputerSafeTM
 
Password protect files, folders and the PC against Identity Theft or unauthorized access
Lock, hide and encrypt data to prevent firewall break-ins, new virus and spyware
Monitor keyboard activity, establish alarm criteria and use a camera to capture intrusions
Dispatch immediate notifications of events that violate your configuration settings
While all computers should have anti-virus and firewall protection, these safeguards are only partially effective. Real danger stems from new viruses, spyware and new hacking methods launched over the Internet. Furthermore, these measures do not prevent internal attacks which are more common and often more costly and dangerous than those externally generated.

SecurePCTM          
Total Access Control and System Security


SecurePCTM
 
Sample of possible applications:
•  Host Token Access Control
•  Home Office/personal data separation
•  Corporate Telecommuter / Family Use
•  HIPAA Health privacy regulations
•  Multiple OS Laboratory test-bed
•  Classroom access controls
•  VPN Access Management
•  Utilization logging
•  Industrial Control / Factory Automation
   (IP54 approved)
•  Secure / Separated Data Back-up
•  Facility Management
 
Protecting digital assets whether on a single computer or the entire network begins with managing access. The SecurePC™ patented Smart Card technology delivers user access control in a new way. It’s unique internal control unit and patented power distribution system ensures an easy to manage but totally secure environment. Additionally, it tracks all sign-on/off events in a secure log.
 
SecurePC brings security to a different level through the use of “hard-wired” configurations. It can maintain up to nine independent and isolated configurations within one PC with each one having different user rights and individual privacy of data.
 
The SecurePC uses a patented built-in security technology to prevent internal tampering and even the  out-right theft of the system. Files can be secured in several ways including 256-bit AES encryption. The system can also be configured to send email, SMS or pager notifications in the event of a security violation.
 
Managing up to eight different bootable hard drives and all other hardware assets, the SecurePC ensures that all activities, including damaging behaviour, on one “System Configuration” never affects the others. This keeps total separation of programs, data and even different operating systems in one PC. Until now, the combination of data security and flexible usage has not been possible on PCs either at home or in the office.
Theft of personal and corporate information has become an immense problem that is growing at an alarming rate.  Today, Identity Theft is the leading complaint received by the Federal Trade Commission.  Additionally, laptop and desktop computers are prime targets for physical theft since they can be sold into the used computer market. Add to this the growing problem of objectionable content suddenly appearing on the display in your home or office, and one can rapidly recognize that there is a dark side to the technological revolution we’ve experienced.  Most recently it has become evident that even the cellular telephone marketplace is experiencing problems with privacy and security violations.
To help deal with these issues, Com-Guard, Inc. has focused its efforts on the design and development of products that provide data and hardware protection, PC access control, the control of program usage, cellular security protection and the filtering of Web and email content.
