Utimaco – The Data Security Company, today announced that Network Products Guide, a Silicon Valley Communications publication and a world leading provider of information on technologies and solutions, has named SafeGuard Enterprise 5.3 a winner of the 2008 Best Products and Services Award.
This respected annual award honors products and services that represent the rapidly changing needs and interests of the end-users of technology worldwide. As part of the tech-industry's leading global awards program, this year's Best Products and Services were nominated from all over the world. SafeGuard Enterprise has achieved extraordinary market reception with triple the number of customer seats in the second half of Utimaco's 2007/2008 fiscal year compared to the first half of the same year.
SafeGuard Enterprise 5.3 is a completely integrated software solution for multi-layered security, preventing data leakage via ports and removable media. The suite enforces consistent, centralized, policy-based encryption and data security for PCs and mobile devices in mixed device and OS environments.

With SafeGuard Enterprise 5.3, Utimaco ensures ease of use for network and security administrators with complete deployment flexibility allowing for both central and non-central management – a key differentiator that separates Utimaco from competitive offerings.
"Increased end-user awareness and ongoing advances in technology are helping shape better products and services," says Rake Narang, editor-in-chief, Network Products Guide. "SafeGuard Enterprise 5.3 provides unparalleled protection by combining data leak prevention with encryption and offers users security on all kinds of devices, from laptops and removable media to PDAs and smartphones."
