Ntrepid has kicked off the preregistration process for its Passages Consumer browser for the victims of the data breach that hit the Office of Personnel Management in 2015.
The cybersecurity firm has opened the free preregistration for 60 days before it rolls out the consumer version of the browser to OPM users in late 2016 with a free one-year subscription, Ntrepid said Monday.
“Far more than 50 percent our corporate family was directly impacted by the breach, so we are taking this personally,” said Richard Helms, founder and CEO at Ntrepid.
“We believe this threat is immediate and are working diligently to provide all victims with a secure browser that eliminates this attack vector.”
Victims of the OPM breach can also sign up for Passages during the RSA 2016 conference in San Francisco, California.
Passages is a virtual browser designed to protect users from social engineering tactics and identity theft by working to detect malware and isolate Web sessions.
