Crowdfunding in the Future

I’ve been looking into crowd funding and micro financing sites for a while and it was always inspiring how many bands and independent entrepreneurs go this route. A good friend of mine just raised $16k from his friends for a new offline print magazine for the web design community. I started investing money into Kiva.org for some time now and despite the donation it’s growing to a substantial base.

But why is crowd sourcing only used in the “micro world” of small businesses and third world countries? Why aren’t there any deep-pocket entrepreneurs that fund a company with their name and make it into something big? Why are the super-wealthy not interested in joining forces into a for-good investment and change the entire reputation of their name and industry?

Can we only look at new funding approaches from industries outside the finance world (e.g. Radiohead tested new techniques from the alternative music industry)?

I am personally surprised that no more business models developed out of thecrowd sourcing experiences we have in our daily lives. Occupy Wallstreet, the disruptive character of online reviews or just the insane growth of Facebook should bait way more entrepreneurs into the field of crowd sourcing business models.

 

USB Encryption To Secure Financial Data

The use of a flash drive is the perfect way to store data, and easily carry it around, without having to carry around a large hard drive, or similar device. However, if this USB device were to get lost, it could cause major problems for individuals, especially if one were lost by a person who deals with sensative materials, such as financial analysts, advisers, auditors, or an accountant. So, for those who love the portability of a USB flash drive, yet want the information secure, a secured eUSB usb encryption is the perfect option to purchase. This device is a comprehensive, and easy to use solution, for the security of a USB flash drive device. It will allow for the functionality and ease of mobility, and will comply with data protection laws and regulations, ensuring that a client’s information is kept safe, and will not be hacked into if the device were to be lost.

 

The secured eUSB offers strong encryption of data, a centralized control for USB security policy, offers password policy and protection limiting user access rights, and extensive data content reports, allowing for security across the entire network. This means all the data on the eUSB device, will only be seen by the eyes who are meant to see it, and if it is ever lost, the customer’s information is still kept safe due to password protection. The device will also minimize administration overhead since the user of the device is guided on the encryption process, and has access to a built in helpdesk if support is needed.

The product offers the most advanced technologies, and will ensure that all data is kept safe. There are also central management tools, which allow the users to deploy different levels, and the highest level of security for the USB device. The auto data content reporting feature offers a full audit trail, ensuring that the USB encryption is always in use, and that regulatory compliances are met. There are also anti-theft systems, so even if the USB is stolen or lost, there is no risk of data being lost, or getting into the wrong hands.

The eUSB device is the perfect device for financial advisers who are constantly monitoring financial information, or for the accountant who keeps records for hundreds of clients and businesses on the flash drive. It will ensure the ultimate protection, and will keep clients, and their identity’s safe.
