Snuko PLC: Snuko forms a strategic partnership with Ingenin to distribute its anti-theft products throughout the UK insurance industry
Snuko PLC / Key word(s): Miscellaneous 13.07.2011 / 09:00 --------------------------------------------------------------------- The partnership between Snuko and Ingenin is set to be a highly effective solution for the UK insurance industry in the battle against theft or loss of laptops and mobile devices. This agreement means that Snuko Anti Theft products will be available to all UK insurance policy holders to help not only cover the monetary elements of their goods, but also the potential recovery of their devices and personal data. Snuko CEO Carlos Benvenuti commented 'This agreement is excellent news for Snuko as it will allow our products to reach hundreds of thousands of new customers. We are very excited to be working with Ingenin and using their knowledge of the insurance industry to help consumers recover lost or stolen devices' Figures indicate that over 32% of all home burglaries involve the theft of a laptop or mobile phone, the majority of which were never recovered. With the Snuko and Ingenin agreement now in place it means that the number of devices recovered will dramatically increase. Ingenin Co-Founder Manjit Rana commented 'When a laptop or mobile device is lost or stolen it is far more involved than just the cost or replacing the item. Often it is the sentimental value of the data such as photos and contacts which money can not compensate for. With smart phones being used as the key to our social lives and identities it is even more important to ensure that if the phone is lost or stolen that it cannot be used to commit identity fraud. The Snuko product will provide a revolutionary solution for the UK insurance market to address a problem that traditional insurance products were not designed for' It is estimated that fraudulent mobile phone claims could be costing the insurance industry in excess of £100m a year, now we can instantly 'freeze' a handset post claim to stop it being re-used or re-sold and even track its location virtually anywhere in the world. This is particularly useful on travel loss claims where claimants say that the phone or laptop was stolen abroad but actually still have it in their possession. Ingenin Co-Founder Chris Denison commented 'These days most SME's run their entire business from their smart phones and laptops, losing one of these devices could be catastrophic for the business and most insurance products do not provide an effective solution to help the business recover that valuable data. The new solution automatically encrypts and backs up the essential data into a cloud based service so that it can be instantly recovered.' Snuko and Ingenin share the same vision of providing consumers and businesses with effective solutions to protect their 'digital life'. Together they will provide the UK insurance industry with the most effective protection yet for laptops and mobile devices.
