LIGATT Security Signs Agreement With Barnes & Noble College Booksellers to Sell LocatePC on College Campuses
30 Agosto 2010 - 3:15PM
LIGATT Security International (Pink Sheets:LGTT), a cyber security
company, today announced that the company has signed an agreement
with Barnes & Noble College Booksellers. LIGATT's first
shipment of 300 copies came from Georgia Techs' bookstore, owned
and operated by Barnes and Noble, Inc.
"We are very excited about this signing and look forward to
proving that LocatePC will help reduce and recover the number of
laptops that are stolen on college campuses," says Richard Barry,
Director of Business Development of LIGATT Security. "This is a
very important relationship for us. This is the first of many
locations with Barnes & Noble College Booksellers where we
anticipate product promotions, demonstrations and other customer
activities. Barnes & Noble College Booksellers is another
entrée into the retail distribution space for LIGATT Security and
LocatePC."
Acquired by Barnes and Noble, Inc. in 2009, Barnes & Noble
College Booksellers, Inc. operates bookstores at more than 600 U.S.
colleges and universities. It was formerly a separate company, and
Barnes & Noble chairman Leonard S. Riggio owned a controlling
interest in the company and is its chairman.
The company also operates the self-proclaimed "world's largest
bookstore," located on Fifth Avenue and 18th Street in New York
City. This flagship store carries a large variety of textbooks,
medical books, and medical supplies in addition to the various
trade titles carried at Barnes & Noble's main stores.
Barnes & Noble College Booksellers outreach is to over
4 million students and approximately 250,000 faculty members. This
deal gives LIGATT Security International a great opportunity to
place the company's signature product, LocatePC, into a highly
visible marketplace. LocatePC will allow students, faculty, and
alumni to track a stolen computer. Additionally, LocatePC enables
the computer owner to retrieve, delete and protect sensitive data,
shut down a computer, turn on a key logger to record the thief's
activities, and send a message to the computer screen that cannot
be closed. LIGATT Security is finding that it may be more important
to an individual to actually physically be able to retrieve and
protect sensitive data than to actually retrieve the personal
computer itself.
"The functions and features of our product are the best in the
industry. LocatePC is the least expensive solution for
protecting consumers. This is another major accomplishment for
LIGATT Security International in our strategy to educate consumers
about computer security and personal data protection," comments
Barry.
Some of their college partners include: Clemson University, The
Ohio State University, University of Akron, University of Delaware,
Ball State University, California State University, University of
Michigan, and Texas A&M University.
