Barack Obama State of the Union 2013 Comments on Security
by Aaron Titus
Last night President Obama delivered the State of the Union Address in Washington, DC. During his speech, he said, “We know hackers steal people’s identities and infiltrate private e-mail. We know foreign countries and companies swipe our corporate secrets.”
Here’s what that part of the State of the Union Address means to the average American:
- For the first time in history, the President has acknowledged the importance of protecting sensitive stored data as a matter of national, corporate, and individual security. It’s something that Identity Finder customers have known and practiced for years.
- The FTC reported that over 10 million american’s identities were stolen last year.
- Identities and corporate trade secrets are stolen from our own computers using malware and email. It is easy to forget the treasure trove of sensitive information we each keep on our computers. One scan with Identity Finder will help you find and secure that information.
For more than a decade, Identity Finder has protected the nation’s most important intellectual and personal assets: Trade secrets and personal identities. Identity Finder is installed on millions of computers, government, and corporate servers. The Identity Finder Enterprise and Government Console provides an essential layer of security to protect and secure sensitive personal information, non-public information, and corporate trade secrets on email servers, file servers, macs, PCs, and any other device with a hard drive.
At Identity Finder, we’re encouraged that solving data loss is a national priority, and we stand ready to support the national security, corporate security, and personal security of every American.
We encourage you to take the next step to protect your most valuable intellectual assets.
