NerdBoyTV:
 Welcome to our TwitterVIEW with Peter Avritch, President of SafeHouseSoftware. Peter, are you there?
SafeHouseSoft:
 I'm here and all ready to talk about SafeHouse. Thank you for inviting me intoyour world.
NerdBoyTV:
 Thanks for joining me today, Peter. Could you please tell us what exactlySafeHouse Software does?
SafeHouseSoft:
 SafeHouse Explorer is free privacy and encryption software for Windows PCs.It's used to keep private files secret.
NerdBoyTV:
 Why do you think privacy and encryption software is so critical nowadays?
SafeHouseSoft:
 The plain truth is everyone has secrets—and in today's world, they tend to bedigital—photos, videos, resumes, legal docs.
NerdBoyTV:
 Not to mention that the portability of laptops and flash drives are socommonplace today, it's so easy to lose control of info.
SafeHouseSoft:
 Right. A recent study in the UK found that 9,000 memory sticks were sent tothe dry cleaners near their big financial center.
NerdBoyTV:
 Yikes, with absolutely no encryption or protection on them probably. Scary!

SafeHouseSoft:
 People are really starting to see that memory sticks will be the source of a lotof trouble. So cheap, so much data...
NerdBoyTV:
 Yes, memory sticks are TOO convenient. Especially if they're on a key ring(something people lose all the time)!!!
SafeHouseSoft:
 With laptops, you always know where they are because you paid a lot ofmoney for them. Memory sticks don't get the same respect.
NerdBoyTV:
 Oh ain't THAT the truth? But on the news, there have been some fairly high-profile laptop losses SS#, credit cards, etc.
NerdBoyTV:
 If ONLY they had SafeHouse Explorer, huh? ;-)
NerdBoyTV:
 This is a screenshot of a "vault" setup for your critical information. Can youexplain the whole vault concept?
SafeHouseSoft:
 You create a private container. You pick the size, location and password.Then it looks like a new windows drive letter.
NerdBoyTV:
 Does the vault hold an actual copy of my file? What happens to my originalfile?

SafeHouseSoft:
 The actual file is in the vault. Normally we don't touch your original, but wehave an option to secure delete it.
SafeHouseSoft:
 Secure delete is where we write all kinds of random data over your originalfile to make sure there is no way it can be recovered.
SafeHouseSoft:
 This free software can save a lot of grief. It works just like WindowsExplorer—so there's nothing new to learn.
NerdBoyTV:
 SafeHouse Explorer is a FREE download that can anyone can get athttp://bit.ly/iBa9w. Tell us about Personal Edition.
SafeHouseSoft:
 While SafeHouse Explorer is perfect for memory sticks, we have Personaland Pro editions which are best on desktops.
SafeHouseSoft:
 These other not-free products have many more features and a system traycontrol center for easy access to all features.
SafeHouseSoft:
 We have a product comparison chart herehttp://is.gd/uaJ5, which lists all ofour features.
NerdBoyTV:
 Well, I can certainly attest to the ease-of-setup and use of the freeSafeHouse Explorer. Also, LIKE vault SLAM shut sound!
SafeHouseSoft:
 Ah, our sounds. People love them. They've become sort of our littletrademark.
NerdBoyTV:
 I don't think I mentioned this to you, Peter, but I work for a company thatdeals in Sensitive Information. All docs psswd locked.
NerdBoyTV:
 The problem is remembering the constantly changing passwordsmonths/years later to open them for reference.
NerdBoyTV:
 Would have been nice to remove password protection and just throw themALL in a SafeHouse vault with a password I could remember. LOL
SafeHouseSoft:
 If you have passwords on individual docs, that would drive anyone crazy. We just use one password for everything.
