26/11/2009 Leicestershire: One of the East Midland’s leading new technology businesses is capitalising on a world’s first by enabling companies, organisations and individuals to protect their digital content beyond the basic username and password protection.

With more people wanting to maintain artistic and company integrity, Leicester based DVD Blu-ray Duplication has extended its product range in a move to safeguard loss of data, reduce copywriting, theft and piracy.

“The growing interest in digital media and conversion technologies has certainly increased the concerns of copyright dependent individuals and organisations,” explained Michael Cheung, Managing Director of DVD Blu-ray Duplication.

“We have found that particularly those working in the music industries, which are dependent on the revenue generated from their work, have expressed an interest in our product range in addition to the videographic and public sector bodies where information can be confidential.”

The business now provides the newest and safest security features on the market including copy protection and encryption solutions for USB flash memory drives and DVDs.
“We are proud to be the only company in the East Midlands region to offer the highest level of security in the industry on our USB flash memory drives and DVD discs” highlighted Michael.

“Our USBs are unique as they have embedded microcontrollers that hold and store the encrypted information. We can protect the entire USB device or just a portion of the memory enabling the user to use the remainder as a normal USB flash device whilst safeguarding and protecting the files that need to be secure.”

“The DVDs are also one of a kind as they record the security information and encryption physically onto the disc as they are developed.”

Michael and his team are continually looking at new technologies in the market and already provide a leading duplication service across DVD, Blu-ray, LightScribe and USB.

“Being in the digital industry for more 10 years, I have noticed there has been a greater need to protect files safely and securely. Our high-end security protection allows any digital content to be protected and safeguarded against fraudulent activities and our security hardware certainly addresses those concerns.” said Michael.

The security toolkit goes beyond USB flash memory drives and also addresses DVDs offering video copy protection, control file rights, access control and expiration dates on files.

“Teaming our duplication services with a security toolkit means that we can offer a complete secure digital package to our customers, right across the globe – something we are very proud of,” added Michael.
