Thermal transfer printer

The lightweight, compact TTM430 thermal transfer printer has a 300-dpi print head and prints at a speed up to 7.87” per second. The TTM430 holds up to 64 MB of memory and 8 MB of flash, and is equipped with high-tech printing sensors that create accurate starts and stops for less label waste. The TTM430 prints to a wide variety of materials, including all HellermannTyton thermal transfer labels and ShrinkTrak heat-shrinkable markers. Both Ethernet and wireless network ready, the unit can be placed away from the host computer. A status monitor alerts users if the printer is out of ribbon or labels and can send an e-mail alert to the operator. - HellermannTyton

Data security

RSA Data Security System helps enterprises secure sensitive data by providing centralized policy management and meets regulatory requirements for strong two-factor authentication-based access control. Administrators can discover and monitor sensitive information, enforce controls, as well as report and audit data security. The software secures sensitive data in file systems, and provides transparent encryption and role-based access control of sensitive data in files and folders on Windows and Linux servers. The program can be deployed in audit-only mode to determine who is accessing sensitive content prior to turning on encryption and role-based access controls. - RSA Security
