Portsmouth, Va, Oct. 16, 2014, PRNewswire-iReach: Project Sierra, currently being funded on Kickstarter, makes internet security accessible even for the most inexperienced technology users. The device, backed by Simplified Network Solutions, plugs into the consumer’s modem and then protects data from traffic analysis. It seems like every day there are new stories dealing with credit card breaches, photo leaks, and personal data loss appearing on the nightly news. With the simple network encryption that Project Sierra provides, the risk of any of these occurring is significantly lowered.
Project Sierra is open source based on DD-WRT with an Android user interface. It is a stand-alone device that simply connects to a modem- this is what makes it unique from other similar devices on the market today. Other encryption services are complex and require additional downloads- Project Sierra just needs plugged in! The device protects a variety of data and activity from being monitored including location, search histories, spending habits, webcam access and online behaviors.
For a pledge of $149 or more, consumers can own Project Sierra and browse the internet with their minds at ease, knowing that their personal information is safe from hackers. Once on the market, Project Sierra will run from $249-$299. The founder, Kerry Cox Jr., is a disabled veteran who has a multitude of experience working with the government and private companies to enhance their network securities and now seeks to bring that security to the average American.
Project Sierra uses an international network of proxies to allow consumers to run your data through a third party IP address and protect your location. This is beneficial because most cyber-attacks are directed at your known IP address. When you create a connection between your computer and the Project Sierra servers, your home network is given a layer of security that you do not currently have. Your information will not be seen, only the Project Sierra server IP will be visible to the world.
A successful crowdfunding campaign will allow Simplified Network Solutions to manufacture and fulfill Project Sierra orders. Their funding goal of $150,000 must be met by October 31st. In addition to the $149 pledge level, there are a variety of other rewards for backers to choose from starting at $5.00.
