Atlanta GA December 8, 2003–BadBlue, a leading provider of file sharing and collaboration software, today announced the availability of its new Personal Edition software package. The package is designed to transform a home PC into a powerful Internet web server designed to share photos, videos, music and business documents securely. Its new OfficeSurfer feature provides office workers with freedom from most corporate web filtering software, avoiding monitoring and ensuring privacy. “If we’re at a client site and need unfettered access to the Internet for research purposes, OfficeSurfer lets us bypass the restrictions that normal employees have so that we can get our job done,” stated Warren Timmer, president of ISS Ohio. “Some of the corporate web filters restrict software development sites that are categorized as ‘hacker sites’. In our security consulting practice, it is crucial to have access to so-called hacker information so that we can better protect our clients.
