V7 Introduces Line of Privacy Filters for Protecting Data

V7, the exclusive house brand for Ingram Micro Inc. (NYSE: IM) and provider of premier computer accessories worldwide, today introduced a line of affordable, high-quality privacy filters for the U.S. market.

The V7 filters darken on-screen information when viewed from the side, making screen data visible only to persons directly in front of the monitor without blurring or distortion. Perfect for the office or while traveling, the privacy filters help keep corporate and personal data secure.

In addition to protecting privacy, the V7 filters also feature a high-gloss finish that sharpens contrast to enhance display image and help to protect fragile LCD screens from scratches, smudges, fingerprints and damage, safeguarding your computer investment.

The filters are applied directly on the viewable area of a display, and fit easily onto a notebook or desktop without plastic framing – resulting in a crystal clear view. Easily attached and removed, the filters stay attached when a notebook or laptop computer is closed.

"With data protection a top priority for most professionals these days, V7’s privacy filters are a low-cost, simple solution that can bring peace of mind to end-users and corporate security officers alike,” said Rainer Kozlik, vice president and general manager of Ingram Micro’s Global V7 Private Label Group. "This new product line again reflects Ingram Micro’s standards for top-quality PC accessories that offer value-added resellers and their customers significant value for their dollar.”

Available in six screen sizes, the V7 privacy filters are priced from $30 to $60 less than comparable brand name filters. Specific sizes and pricing include:

• 12.15-inch diagonal screen; $39.99 SRP (model #PS12.1WA)
• 13.31-inch diagonal screen; $39.99 SRP (model #PS13.3WA)
• 14.11-inch diagonal screen; $39.99 SRP (model #PS14.1WA)
• 15.43-inch diagonal screen; $39.99 SRP (model #PS15.4WA)
• 17.06-inch diagonal screen; $49.99 SRP (model #PS17.0SA)
• 19.01-inch diagonal screen; $59.99 SRP (model #PS19.0SA)

All V7 products are backed by Ingram Micro’s powerful distribution network and reputation for service.

"The V7 privacy filters are a perfect fit for companies seeking to prevent employee identity theft and loss of proprietary data, as well as those seeking to meet government and industry privacy regulations,” said Robert Forster, director of product marketing for Ingram Micro’s Private Label division.
