["Webmaster - ART TOPOS" <webmaster@artopos.org>]

Dear Nettimerss,

The following message just arrived in my mailbox. It might be of interest to
all of us. Especially the "Mission Impossible" metaphor...

Kind regards

Dear Subscriber,

The following is an advertisement:

ANNOUNCING INTETHER - THE WORLD'S FIRST INTELLIGENT DEFENSE
SOFTWARE
Infraworks announces InTether, the first digital
security software that enables intelligent Self-Protecting Data.

InTether protects the content of files like .mp3, video, software
or documents, allowing the sender of information to control the
recipient's use, including printing, copying, forwarding and time
of destruction. If hacking is attempted, the file self-destructs.
Just like Mission Impossible. No other technology can do this.

HOW IS INTETHER DIFFERENT THAN OTHER CONTENT PROTECTION
TECHNOLOGIES?
InTether is not: Encryption, DRM, watermarking, encrypted-container
or application-level security. It's a revolutionary, patented new
technology that gives you complete control over your data. InTether
is unique in its ability to eliminate redistribution of files and
protect data that is in use.  All other protection technologies in
the market today protect only the front-end of the file delivery
process. These technologies, and the whole premise of digital
rights management (DRM), only focus on data that is in storage or
in transit.  Only InTether provides secure self-protection for data
and content in the use state.

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN TO YOU?
It means that you can send digital files to anyone without fear of
unauthorized redistribution. For example, you could attach a Word
or Excel document in an e-mail to anyone anywhere, and prohibit
them from forwarding it, printing it, copying it or cutting and
pasting any part of it. You set the permissions, and the data is
deleted when the permissions are exhausted. You are in total
control of your digital property.

WANT TO TRY IT?

development, go to www.infraworks.com/Try_InTether.html.
