"I don't know what's been going on with contracts" (including DOD contracts) Nobody does! DOD just got it's appropriation for 2017 on 1/1/17 from Treasury. For the CIO's office that means they can now begin the formal process of the procurement cycle. All I'm saying is that at least SFOR got a chance at bat. I don't know how the presentation went, I wasn't in the room. They could have struck out or hit a home run. All I know for sure is that no large scale purchases of defensive software could have been made until H.R. 5293 was signed into law. We won't know which vendor was selected until all vendors reports of the 1st Q of 2017 are reviewed. Until then I remain long & strong SFOR!
The letter to POTUS produced a possibility for SFOR. Before that letter to the POTUS landed on his desk the DOD/CIO's policy guy stated he was unaware SFOR and its products even existed. Now bear in mind that the letter I wrote to the POTUS arrived in the Pentagon's CIO office within a week. He told me the last time he got a letter routed from the WH from a concerned citizen it took 3 months! Apparently somebody in the West Wing thought it important to promptly forward. That letter caused phone calls between SFOR CEO Mark Kay & the DOD/CIO's office which arranged the presentation by ACS to the CIO. I was told he had taken two presentations the previous week and one this week so our conversation was timely. That letter broke the ice at the Pentagon for SFOR and got the ACS foot in the door to make a presentation on the SFOR Mobile Trust version 3 solution to their mobile device (unclassified) COMSEC problem.
What pray tell have you done to as Mark Kay thanked me for
"promote military awareness of SFOR products"?" All this can be verified by calling Mark Kay directly.
I don't understand how that happens with Blank Rome working this case on contingency. Please explain, Thanks!
As was said on old time radio "Only the shadow knows". The rest of us should find out, for sure, sometime this month when & where it happens unless, perhaps,a PR announces it ahead of time.
Until last January they were under the iron heel of Microsoft. Once they & their subsidiary, Phone Factor settled SFOR could finally get on with business.
Respectfully, I disagree. What do you think Singapore Telecom (Please note Sing/Tel is: 97% owner of Trustwave, is the largest Telecom provider in Asia, has $92 Billion in assets and rolled out an OOBA 2FA secure mobile banking service to its customers in Oct.) will do if discovery leads to Markman hearings? Do you think they will risk treble damages? IMHO Sing/Tel could buy SFOR then turn around to continue IP infringment litigation against DUO & Centrify to recover the acquisition cost. Once an international patent is granted for mobile device OOBA 2FA the entire world could then be their market IMHO. They could do this for what is to them chump change, a buyout offer of 1/2 or 1 billion dollars. That would be mightily hard for our CEO Mark Kay to resist. You'll recall in the IT convention video he stated he "would like to sell out in a couple years".
My revised POTUS letter will include the former House Intelligence Committee Chairman's statement. As of yet, no vendor's defensive software has been selected for all those new issue military I-Phones. So sad! Then of course I'll inform President Trump of the possible SFOR solution to Lt/Gen Ben Hodges
mobile device COMSEC problem. That is Mobile Trust, version 3.
Thanks for bringing that insightful interview to our attention!
It's the final countdown. In around 8 hours Wall Street opens up.
It is the start of 2017 stock market trading. It is also, I believe, Strike Force Technologies year. GLTA fellow longs!
We can assist in that effort by informing him of the SFOR Mobile Trust solution to the DOD issue I-Phone COMSEC problem at:
Presidential Transition Team
One Trump Tower
725 Fifth Ave
New York, NY
10022
Of course after 1/20/17 his address will change to the White House
Help get America's best the best defensive software. Every letter counts! Write today!
Thanks but in all honesty it's more than conviction. It's because my family has skin in the game. Close kin, I personally swore in, is deployed overseas in support of our efforts against IS. They are in harms way. They deployed with no defensive software on their (unclassified) mobile device. I can not rest, until they do, be it SFOR's Mobile Trust or something better.
Funny, that's not what happened last time. My letter to POTUS wound up on the desk of the DOD/CIO's policy guy in a week according to what he told me. Amazing what a well written letter from a retired intelligence officer (Air Force) can do! However, I believe any sincere, well written letter from a patriotic American concerned about the troops mobile device COMSEC problem
and the potential SFOR Mobile Trust solution to it would carry just as much weigh. Call me an idealist but I still believe in our Republic and its representative government!
A whole lot can happen between now & October good or bad. Let's face it the stock market is the world's largest casino IMHO.
You put down your money and take your chances based on your own DD. GLTA!
Suffice it to say I do not know a better positioned stinky pinkie than SFOR with its potential. All here are entitled to politely share their opinions. Some believe SFOR is "going back to the trips" others that SFOR is "going to the moon" I believe it may go somewhere in the middle of those two extremes. Time will tell whose right. That time frame IMHO is 2017. I eagerly look forward to the year-end 10-K and 1st Q of 2017 reports to get some clarity. Until then I am long & strong SFOR!
I disagree that nothing much has changed since July of last year.
IMHO SFOR staff (including the sales & marketing guys Mark hired the end of the 3rd Q) have been hard at work. I'm giving them until the 1st Q of 2017 results hit the wires to see if they are worth their salt or not. For me the jury is still out and I remain long & strong SFOR knowing what I own. As far as the 5 cent goal did the pps not break the 4 cent mark at one point? 20% off an expectation is not bad IMHO. Everyone's crystal balls are a bit cloudy I'm afraid.
You're right! On 1/20/17 along with Lt/Gen Flynn, his National Security advisor, The Donald will walk into the White House. Awaiting them both in the West Wing mail room will be my individualized letters about the SFOR solution to DOD's I-Phone COMSEC problem, Mobile Trust, version 3. Of course the Donald's Priority Mail package will contain a copy of the reply I received from his predecessor, the then former POTUS Barack Obama.
Works for me, my family & friends flawlessly IMHO.
Also, please add the DNC staff. Due to the Federal Holiday I cannot mail this letter until tomorrow AM. No telling how many scared Democrats may order SFOR products to help prevent another zero day keylogger attack that cost them so very dearly! Thanks!
Dear DNC Staff,
I am writing you out of concern over Russian hacking of your e-mails with the goal of influencing our recent presidential election. Yesterday I read an article on the joint intelligence agency review of the matter. The word that jumped out at me was “keylogger”. Last winter I became concerned about protecting my personal and financial information from hackers. I found out that the anti-virus programs available fail to protect against the zero day attacks that key loggers and click jackers use. I wanted multi-layered defense and anti-screen capture capabilities. I read that “Silicon Review” recognized Strike Force Technologies as the world’s leading provider of patented, military-grade keystroke encryption, out of band authentication and two factor authentication. I purchased on-line via Amazon and installed their Mobile Trust product on my mobile device and Guarded ID product on my laptop. I also encouraged family and friends to do likewise. Mobile Trust is now being sold in brick and mortar stores nationwide. It was easy to install, costs $30 a year for two I-phones (or any android device), does not slow things down or cause any other problems. I did this only after Strike Force Technologies settled with Microsoft over patent infringement in January of 2016. A modest investment ($ 15 ea.) to protect all your devices would have prevented that keylogger hack & Russian exploitation of your private e-mails. Please consider making this investment to prevent this from ever happening again! For a quick overview of this technology watch a brief Guarded ID video on You Tube.
Thank you for considering my request to help safeguard our electoral process from the interference of foreign governments. If I can be of any further help in this matter please don’t hesitate to call, e-mail or write me at: (personal contact information withheld).
Best Regards,

IMHO shortly after national product exposure on that TV shopping network our CEO Mark Kay spoke of in the 1/1/17 interview article. So, sometime this January or early February. I can easily hold SFOR long & strong until then. However, I perfectly understand if this does not meet your investment timeline.
Staples could be doing the same as Target. Their marketing people are targeting (no pun intended) stores in major population centers that have larger computer/electronic departments. I don't blame them. They need to know how well SFOR's product sells before placing in more of their stores. I believe those holiday sales available should be available with the year-end 10-K report.
Is that a legal requirement? Or would a PR do? I don't know.
O.K. let's just see what transpires in the next 29 days. I believe that just as he kept his word about "No R/S" (as greatly ballyhooed) Mark Kay will be truthful about this. Time will tell. Let us continue this conversation on 2/1/17 Agreed?
Right, "With a TV store in January starting to show our products in 2017" It does make you wonder just which TV store he means. Could in be the Home Shopping Network? Could it be QVC? What do you think?
A gift that keeps on giving like SFOR's defensive software was a wise selection this holiday season.
USCG, DHS, Representatives & Senators were also written about the SFOR Mobile Trust version 3 solution to the military mobile device COMSEC problem. As were members of President-Elect Trumps transition team. Please add them to your list. Thank you!
I perfectly agree with you Gold49er. Ask any combat vet. COMSEC/OPSEC saves lives. Now I want you to get up out of your seat. Open the window and shout, Mobile Trust can help save soldiers lives!
Or perhaps an outfit that works closely with them for R&D like MITRE? Those people at MIT really know their IT IMHO.
Currently under the radar high risk/high potential opportunity.
Madams et Messieurs place your bets. I'm betting on SFOR!
Yup! DOD does have a try before buy policy.
Funny, the DOD/CIO already took the time to sit for a presentation on the SFOR solution to the DOD mobile device COMSEC problem already by ACS.
Welcome to the land of pink sheet listed stocks! But, please PM me of a better pinkie than SFOR, thanks!
This company is NOT a scam. It is a real company, with real products for sale on-line & in stores, is SEC compliant, has money in the bank, real employees (not ghost), US patents, OEM bundling, license fees and most important happy customers!
Even though I may be viewed as "Shilling this company to the federal government" some senior decision makers now know the
issue is of concern to a few members of the public. (Thank you fellow writers) As far as the "software this company is absolute crap" I'll let the experts decide since I don't have a PhD in IT. I trust them to know what's best for the troops I-Phones, SFOR's Mobile Trust version 3 or another vendor's defensive software.
I respect and understand his perspective.
Yeah man, that was great stuff you posted!
Here's why I want SFOR's Mobile Trust version 3 to get a chance at bat. When I chatted with the DOD/CIO's policy guy something he said shocked me! It was "I didn't know they (SFOR) existed" and "Yeah, this Mobile Trust looks interesting". He had brought up the SFOR site as we chatted. You & I both know that letters from the public seldom get to the intended reader in Government.
How do I know. I did a Pentagon tour. At Treasury the Bureau of Engraving maintains the auto-pen machine that contains all official signatures. Members of the public get a vaguely worded reply so often signed by that machine without the intended reader ever seeing it. On the advice of a senior congressional staffer (a retired UNS CPO) I've been writing everyone I thought would have input on the DOD mobile device COMSEC issue. I did this in the hope at least ONE of my letters would get past the mail room and to the intended recipient. At least one did. On 1/20/17 there will be a new administration in charge that hopefully will get something & I don't even care if it's SFOR's Mobile Trust version 3 (longs please don't give me grief about this) on our troops mobile devices. My bottom line is that I don't want a Russian or Chinese targets intel office to be able to use the take from any of those (unclassified) issue I-Phones to do what I did. O.K.?
Yes and no. I do not have a masters degree in computer science like a fellow officer I worked alongside with for years did. He answered my questions! I also was never in US Cyber Command as yet another officer I worked with was. Let's face it. I was a combat intelligence officer putting various munitions on targets with various weapon systems. I only have DOD IT end-user experience.
I am by no means a computer whiz. But I like knowing my personal and financial information is safe due to BOTH anti-virus & SFOR products. It works for me and may just be of help to our military.
Let their experts decide at outfits like MITRE which was at Hanscom AFB. May the best defensive software win!
I'm serious. Can we agree to let the DOD/CIO's office make that call? There have been instances when inventors, like Ram, and their small companies, have contributed to national defense.
I fully support the DOD's try before buy policy. It will prove one way or the other if SFOR's Mobile Trust, version 3 is up to the task or not. If you refer back to the response I received from the USCG they forward it to US Cyber Command and their own Cyber Command for evaluation. I trust their expertise, don't you?
Thanks Koog but in reality, just average. I got passed over for Lt/Col. Then I used my educational benefits to career change (nursing). I'm not going to try to snow you. As you can see I was just an analyst, briefer, targeteer. Yes, I was a base OPSEC officer. Yes, I used various systems to do my jobs. As you can see I was never in US Cyber Command so I am not an area expert just a user. No I will not detail on this forum what systems. Sorry.
Like the questioner I also believe it matters, a lot! You have nothing to hide, you're among friends. Please share your background and most importantly why you don't want the US military to have SFOR's Mobile Trust, version 3 on their (unclassified) issued mobile devices. Inquiring minds want to know!
I bet you are.
