Hello Everyone,
2014/2015 have been great to our team, we made great progress and we also did face great problems.
Development projects that went totally wrong and development projects that blew our minds in every way imaginable.
There is no right and there is no wrong if you are trying to achieve something trough hard work and research.
I personally learned so many things regarding development, research, testing, public opinions and wrong and right judgement calls.
What matters is that one picks up where one left even if things seem to be as huge and daunting as the freaking mount Everest itself.
The questions that many will have are:
1: What is FMA intel-Secure doing?
2: What are they planning?
The first question is easy yet complicated for those not running a own company, FMA Intel-Secure is working to make the company itself identifiable and its products recognizable trough research, testing, development and investing in knowledge either by research, hiring specialists, either trough buying or even trough merging companies into FMA Intel-Secure.
And as such i am happy to announce that our team has grown in the past 5 months exponentially (30+) which gives us the ability to have the total research, development & testing of all our products under one banner (Thanks to 2 successful mergers.) In the past we where forced to hire outside help where our own infrastructure did fall short, today we have our own departments doing their thing, with young and old smart people.
Some of them starting their careers and some of them sharing their decades of knowledge all as one team to bring you the next new product or service. But to get back at what i was saying FMA Intel-Secure is doing great we made our mark on the Dutch, German and Belgian security hardware markets and our star is rising faster then i could imagine or keep up with.
What are we doing? Simple we are soul searching putting things into perspective and trying to keep up with the whole roller coaster we are in, that said you obviously guessed it already this is NOT easy no matter how you swing it.
What are we planning?
Well we are planning a lot since 2016 is THE year to proof all the claims and things we have said, written and done, keep in mind i personally have invested so much into FMA Intel-Secure both on a personal and financial level that 2016 MUST be the year that the magic happens otherwise i might as well call it a day and quit, however its a little late for that.. this is not a wild goose chase, its not a flurry day dream or a moment of "who cares", But it is a time where my staff is waiting for their paychecks having families, kids, bills and mortgages of their own waiting to be paid. So no matter how i swing it those paychecks still need to be paid and as such i do not have time to screw around. FMA Intel-Secure started as a 5 man team (3 fixed staff and 2 on "call") Now we have 30+ people that on its own is a monstrous responsibility and as mentioned before FMA Intel-Secure has to come up with results.
Well 2016 will be that year starting with the announcement that the SabreWall NG100 SACS has been certified and is now commercially available trough our dedicated partner network or directly trough our sales department. The NG50, NG150 and NG1000 series will be entering full production in the first quarter of 2016 and will be after certification be available probably just before mid summer.
And with available i mean totally documented, supported and serviced in the entire EU (Outside EU will probably be around end of august but do not flame me if it takes longer as this is logistically a major thing to achieve.
In regards to our software solutions we have delayed the release of our products to match the release of our hardware components because we wanted to bring peace and stability to our rather hectic schedule and we wanted to focus our efforts in getting the things done in a proper setting and not in a rush rush setting.
Our premium EYE Internet Security, EYE Cloud Anti-Malware, CCSU Guard will be available trough most specialized computer stores in Netherlands, Germany and Belgium (And online available at our web portal) in first quarter 2016 and EVERY single member of MT that wants a copy of one of these programs can get a lifetime license for free under giveaway rules and MT staff supervision. (I have not talked to MT staff about it yet so more info to follow) In regards to our Free products they will be available around the same time trough our website and trough external portals and sites.
Our own site has not been updated yet, we wanted to update it months ago yet due all the changes and the new schedule we decided to launch our new website in the same time frame as our products.
As you can see i am NOT joking around, i am NOT trying to make things sound better and neither am i trying for a quick fame fix, and i am totally aware that everything has been "so so" up to this point, and this was also one of the hard lessons i needed to learn in order to get things done properly. There are so many people out there who will "armchair advise" others how to do it better, There are so many so called researchers who talk about development, research and innovation like they are talking about getting a cold beer, so many people who did hear the "music" playing yet they have ZILCH understanding how the real world works. I personally made that mistake by trusting people against better judgement and got nearly 'virtually assassinated" over it.
Stay true to your own agenda, consult people, listen to advise but be VERY selective in what and when you are going to use that advise and in what shape. Just take things under advisement and with a ton of salt because the moment you got thousands of euro's on the line and families depending on your actions as owner of a company then things change faster then you can realize, so yes i am aware that i made mistakes and that not everything went as advertised. However after being silent for months on end I am writing this to show that despite all the pitfalls you can make a dream come true.
That all being said if you have questions, comments or anything else let us know.
Anyway while its a little late i wish everyone a fantastic X-mas and a fantastic happy new year.
I wish that 2016 makes your dreams come true and i wish you all and your families a GREAT time.
Kind Regards,
FMA Intel-Secure
Edit: for those wondering if our products will be available outside the EU the reply to that is YES, but as mentioned before logistically its a rather big challenge so bare with us.
