Prova Systems a leading developer of wireless OBD-2 VHM diagnostic monitors and trip loggers for vehicle fleet management systems is announcing the availability of its patent-pending VehicleDNA? system. VehicleDNA? creates a unique encrypted identity for every car and truck that identifies them to secure access control systems enabling a new level of security for business, government and consumer applications based on secure vehicle identity.
Vehicle DNA? is designed to help identify and verify vehicles for high security gate access for homeland security purposes, vehicle depot access, vehicle fleet fuel pump systems and home garage entry systems. VehicleDNA? can also be used in anti-fraud detection systems for usage based (UBI ) and pay-as-you-drive (PAYD) insurance programs and law enforcement.
VehicleDNA? creates a unique vehicle identity for each car and truck from the combination of unique identification parameters found in every vehicle. The system hashes this data using the US National Security Agencies SHA-256 hashing functions and then encrypts the result using AES-128 bit encryption providing highly secure access verification for all vehicles. It passes the encrypted identifier to an secure identity server for verification.
VehicleDNA? is a feature upgrade to Prova?s existing line of VHM OBD-2 diagnostic monitors and trip loggers and can communicate with any existing security servers using Zigbee or 802.15.4 wireless. The system also supports the inclusion of unique driver identification and private company keys to meet the most exacting security requirements.
As a feature upgrade to the company?s Vehicle Health Monitor (VHM) line of OBD-2 vehicle monitors and trip loggers VehicleDNA? customers also get access to the rich store of vehicle performance and utilization data stored on the VHMs to perform powerful fleet management functions using Prova?s free wireless tracking systems.
Prova?s VehicleDNA? also operates with the company?s existing 802.15.4 wireless Access Point basestations but it can also communicate directly with a customer?s own access control systems. Prova also offers full integration support and development services for customers who want to include VehicleDNA? in their existing environment or products.
“Secure access control is a new market for Prova and one in which we?ve seen growing demand,” remarked John Collins, President of Prova Systems. “The flexibility of the system combined with our state-of-the-art vehicle diagnostics and trip logging make this a unique product for commercial, consumer and government use.?
The product is available today from Prova or Prova?s partners worldwide. More information at http://www.provasys.com

SimplyWell LLC is raising the bar for employer wellness programs with new website enhancements designed to motivate its participants to embrace wellness and improve their health through wellness solutions targeted to their specific health needs. Working in partnership with Baldwin Hackett & Meeks, Inc. (BHMI), a leading specialist in creating primary software applications, SimplyWell rolled out its new state-of-the-art website to its participants on September 19, 2011.
While still relying on the SimplyWell acclaimed platform based on a medical model, the new website design is much more intuitive as well as interactive. ?Our objective is to get the highest level of engagement and commitment from our participants,? said SimplyWell CEO Mike Demman. ?With our newly designed website, we have enhanced our capabilities to exchange health information and provide proactive education based on an individual?s health risks and health screening results. Information on how a participant can improve his or her health is now just one mouse click away.?
?SimplyWell had a vision to make their online health system more intuitive,? said BHMI Project Manager Megan Whittle. ?They wanted it to provide participants with health topics and tools specifically related to their individual health conditions. BHMI helped SimplyWell make this vision a reality.?
?BHMI shared SimplyWell?s vision for a medically-based system that empowers participants with individualized information, stressing the importance of preventive care and individual accountability,? Whittle said. ?And, both companies knew this enhanced system would require sophisticated intelligence in order to make each user experience unique to the participant. The resulting enhancements were truly a team effort ? a meeting of SimplyWell?s medical mind with BHMI?s technical mind.?
According to Demman and Whittle, the most significant changes to the online health system were made within the ?My Home For Health? section. The main ?My Home For Health? page now serves as a participant dashboard with a quick snapshot of each participant?s individualized health statistics, action plan and related links. Information most relevant to each participant?s health is literally at his or her fingertips, making the system more user-friendly and easier to navigate. The new website?s innovations include:
Enhanced navigation with quick mouse-over functionality, drop down menus, and a new look with fresh graphics.
A ?My Home For Health? page that is individualized to the logged-on participant with personalized program information and direct links to targeted needs-based education.
Up-to-date information on the participant?s risk assessment, health score and progress on the home page as well as a customized ?What?s Next? section to direct wellness efforts.
A message center providing a secure inbox for announcements, reminders, news and confidential health information.
Specialized features for program administration.
?It?s one thing to provide people with access to information, but it?s another thing entirely to get people to act on it. This is what we believe the new SimplyWell website will accomplish,? said Demman.
