Anonymizer Launches Anonymizer Universal™
– Privacy product expands to secure activities beyond just Web browsing –
San Diego — June 15, 2010 — Anonymizer, Inc., the leader in online anonymity solutions, today introduced Anonymizer Universal, its next generation service for online privacy and identity protection. Anonymizer Universal creates a secure, encrypted tunnel between the user and The Anonymizer Network to prevent interception of identifiable information, or “packet sniffing.” Anonymizer Universal’s technology protects the user’s identity by replacing his or her personal IP address with a different, anonymous IP address each day. Unlike browser-centric products, Anonymizer Universal works for any Internet activity, including email, surfing the Internet, enjoying photos, watching videos, streaming music, instant messaging, or playing online games.
“Anonymizer Universal empowers the consumer to take control of their online privacy and identity,” said Bill Unrue, Anonymizer’s President. “In an environment where the sophistication of online technology makes it increasingly easy to obtain personal information without the permission of the user, we want to ensure the consumer retains some choice.”
While firewalls and anti-virus software are important components of system protection, those measures do not address threats that occur once data leaves the computer and is transmitted and exposed to the Internet. Anonymizer Universal’s secure, encrypted tunnel and advanced IP address technology give the user essential protection that goes beyond anti-virus and firewalls.
In addition to traditional Windows® and Mac® Operating Systems, Anonymizer Universal also protects a user’s mobile Internet activities on his or her Apple iPhone®, iPad®, or iPod touch® device.
Anonymizer Universal has an easy “Connect/Disconnect” interface that runs silently in the background. The service only requires a simple download, and can be up and running immediately.
Anonymizer Universal’s retail price is $79.99 (U.S.) per year, and is available via the company’s website (www.anonymizer.com) and select Anonymizer Authorized Resellers. The license is good for one computer, plus one mobile Apple device.
