THOUSANDS OF COMPUTERS ARE LOST OR STOLEN EVERY DAY
With theft protection and security software, PLUS INSURANCE, your investment can be tracked, located and retrieved anywhere in the world. Although your organization carries insurance, most business policies don't cover losses insured from theft or damage to computer equipment or don't provide reasonable deductibles. With SECOM, owners have a fighting chance to recover their valuable computers and their invaluable data.
THE THREAT
• Nearly 400,000 notebook computers and 16,000 desktop computers were stolen in the U.S. in 2000.
• 97% of stolen computers are never recovered.
• 70% of computer thefts are “inside jobs”.
• Organizations without an anti-theft solution can expect an annual notebook theft rate of 3% to 5%.
THE SOLUTION
Security Group International (SGI) offers SECOM— a comprehensive computer security package consisting of a three part system:
1. STOP Plates >>
Theft-deterrent identification tags are a visible deterrent. The numbered identification plate affixes easily and permanently.
2. Tracking Software >>
Our system locates equipment and monitors inventory. Best of all, it tracks and helps recover equipment if lost or stolen.
3. Loss/Theft Insurance >>
Custom packages for laptop and desktop computers are available.
Disaster can strike at anytime. You can't predict when theft, fire, power surges or natural disasters will happen. But you can prepare for the worst by protecting your organization’s investment now.
SGI Success Stories
• SGI provided software for the largest academic rollout of computers in history.
• Our software currently protects more than12,000 Apple iBooks at Henrico County Public Schools in Richmond, Virginia. This number will increase to 23,000 by the end of 2002.
STOP ANTI-THEFT SECURITY TAGS
SECURE EQUIPMENT IN A PORTABLE WORLD?
Every day, some 2,000 computers are stolen or lost. The number is growing at the rate of 25 percent per year. What can you do? Security experts agree that theft deterrence is the most important and cost-effective step you can take in preventing a very costly problem.
STOP PLATES STOP THEFT BEFORE IT HAPPENS
With STOP's tamper-proof security plates, your company can enjoy the same 90 percent reduction in equipment losses that over 2000 companies using our system worldwide enjoy today. And, the STOP security plate offers you more than that! FBI studies have shown that 97 percent of unmarked machines are never recovered. STOP plates act not only to deter theft, they link your equipment to our worldwide tracking and retrieval service. When your company loses a piece of equipment, we work with the local police, the FBI, and INTERPOL to track it down. And, once we've located it, we take care of returning it to you.
STOP PLATES TRACK ALL OF YOUR EQUIPMENT FOR YOU.
The STOP plate goes even further. While preventing equipment loss is crucial, keeping track of all your company's equipment on a day-to-day basis is just as important. The barcode built into STOP security plates is the heart of our simple, cost-effective asset tracking system, based on Microsoft™ Access™.
ONE ELEGANT SYSTEM - THREE EXPENSIVE PROBLEMS SOLVED
STOP's all-in-one security and asset tracking system keeps your equipment in your hands... where it's supposed to be!
STOP System Overview:
STOP's unique, tamper-proof patented plate, with its barcode and indelible tattoo, offers you a simple, inexpensive solution to three major problems associated with overseeing your office equipment.
• Theft Prevention:
STOP plates, and the permanent tattoo they leave on your equipment, act as a highly effective theft-deterrent by providing unmistakable proof that equipment is police traceable and/or stolen. Resale of stolen items marked with our system is virtually impossible. Result? Equipment that would have "disappeared" before is returned, not resold.
• Equipment Recovery:
STOP plates link your lost equipment to our exclusive international tracking database and recovery system, accessible 24-hours a day via world-wide toll-free telephone support. Click here to learn more about the STOP equipment recovery system.
• Asset Tracking:
STOP plates are imprinted with a scannable barcode, allowing you to automatically track all marked items. Using STOP's hand-held scanner and our network-ready, customizable asset tracking software, it becomes remarkably simple to locate and maintain equipment inventory.
