Yahoo Finance: Byos Set to Launch Breakthrough Network Security Protection Hardware

Start-up from Halifax, Nova Scotia gearing-up to introduce the Portable Secure Gateway – a small hardware device that connects through a USB and isolates computers and tablets from public Wi-Fi threats.

HALIFAX, NS , Aug. 21, 2019 /CNW/ - While on a business trip in 2016, Matias Katz realized there was a significant gap in protecting his computer and tablet while travelling – where connecting to public networks in airports, hotels and coffee shops using a VPN was not enough to feel secure and protected. He asked himself, "Can network security protection be automated using a small, low-powered hardware device?"

After three years of research and development and the launch of his company, Byos, the Portable Secure Gateway is the answer.
