The SurfEasy Plug-In Privacy USB Key is a USB key in a credit-card size container that features fast encryption, password protected private web browsing, and password storage. It is portable and simple - you plug the USB key into an available PC port and connect to the Inyternet through a Mozilla-based private browser maintained by the SurfEasy network.
The key works with any Windows desktop or notebook computer using Windows 7, Vista or XP, and any Mac desktop or notebook computer using Mac OS X v10.6 or later. It also requires a USB port with read/write permissions and an Internet connection to successfully launch. The device uses SSL (secure socket layer encryption) and promises "bank-grade" security.
The SurfEasy network creates an encrypted tunnel through any network, and protects data (even on unsecured networks) by making your web session "invisible". Internet service providers will only see an encrypted data connection and the amount of traffic. Since the information is not parsed back through your ISP, all browsing history, downloads and passwords are kept stored on the key. Your data arrives encrypted to the SurfEasy network, and is then passed back to you.
