HQ Location: Palm Beach Gardens, Florida
Products Being Demoed: SafeCentral
Product Launched: April 2008
Metrics: 52 employees

How they describe themselves:
SafeCentral provides complete and comprehensive defense from Identify theft, keyloggers, phishers and other malicious software by creating an end-to-end transaction environment linking the user’s PC to the website of their choice. Based on Authentium’s patent-pending VERO technology, SafeCentral desktop interprets and intercepts Windows commands to create an isolated and clean environment for online data exchange. The encrypted SafeCentral browser links directly to the SafeCentral Portal, which provides an attractive and secured environment for users to aggregate and discover web destinations. SafeCentral empowers users to visit over 15,000 secured websites, enter personally identifiable information, and feel secure in the fact that their personal data, identity and assets are safe.

What they think makes them better:
Our competitors occupy similar space in that they develop products and services to protect against ID theft; however our approach is vastly different. Our competitors products & services protect usage of your personally identifiable information (once a breach has occurred), the technology behind SafeCentral creates an environment that protects your information at the onset of an online transaction before you enter any valuable personal information by locking down the desktop.

Executives: Douglas E. Brunt (President & CEO), Carlisle (Kirk) Kirkpatrick (CFO), Richard M. Cameron (COO), Ray Dickenson (CTO), Helmuth Freericks (Chief Scientific Officer), Carl L. Spataro (VP and General Counsel)
