KEY FEATURES

“It won’t happen to me.” The most famous last words known to humanity, and perhaps never more prescient than in the digital age of hacking. Your home is full of smart devices that aren’t protected by antivirus software, leaving them and your home network open to unwelcome digital intruders. That means they can control your home’s devices, see your online activities, and even steal your personal information. Don’t let that happen. Simply connect CUJO to your network and let it use its machine learning protocols to secure every device operating on that network. This smart firewall keeps your home (and family) safe from hacks, viruses, and other web threats that could affect any web-connected device on your network, all without slowing it down. Best of all, this deal includes a free lifetime subscription to all of CUJO’s business-level services.

THE EXPERT

Manuel Becvar’s professional career started in 1998 when he worked for Austria’s biggest DIY retailer (bauMax). He moved to Hong Kong in 2005 when he was offered a position as an intern to work for one of the biggest Sourcing Offices in Hong Kong.

For over 10 years he worked with the biggest retailers in the world on developing, sourcing and finding new products. These retailers included: Metro, Rewe, OBI, Carrefour, Tesco, WalMart, Amazon, Auchan, Lowes, Sears, Homedepot and many others. As you can imagine the big retailers expect their products to be more than just conform to standards and regulations when they purchase them in Asia. They need to be at the highest standard and quality. These retailers cannot afford to have a product re-call due to quality problems or defective components. These products need to be top-notch.

In those 10 years he got to know all the standards and product requirements there are and additionally gained a lot of experience and insight working with factories in China.

In the busiest seasons (April & October), Ihe was accompanying up to 30 Buyers within a month to exhibitions, factories and showrooms to help negotiate, develop products and follow up the Buyer’s requests after they were gone.

He now has an Import/Export company based in Hong Kong.
