Hello all,
I'm John Stellberg, Marketing Communications Manager at Coilcraft. Pete and I have been communicating regarding this issue and I explained that we had experimented with Remote Approach in an effort to prevent data on 3 or 4 of our very newest products out of the hands of competitors. Coilcraft isn't fond of being the R&D department for countless Asian coilwinders.
I pulled the plug on our use of Remote Approach because of the security concerns it raised with our customers and the realization that, even if I did find that data had been routed to a competitor, the horse was already out of the barn at that point.
There are perhaps 20 - 30 copies of tagged documents out there, and on Monday we will be notifying recipients and sending replacement copies without the Remote Approach code.
To anyone who has been inconvenienced or offended by this, I apologize.
Regards,
