WELCOME! To the Snap-tite Hose online hose inventory system - Hose Record Vault The Hose Record Vault system was developed with the hope that all fire departments would take this opportunity to fully implement fire hose preventative maintenance procedures, with full documentation as required by NFPA 1962. As a fireperson, you know what it takes to battle fires and our desire is that you have the confidence and knowledge that your fire hose is up to the job. NFPA 1962 – The Standard for the Inspection, Care, Use and Service Testing of Fire Hose - Chapter 5 states each length of hose shall have a unique identification number for use in recording its history throughout its service life, and that an accurate hose record shall be maintained by the department. By following a routine testing and maintenance program in conjunction with the Hose Record Vault, you will have confidence in knowing your fire equipment is at top level performance. With the capability to login and keep accurate records of hoses in your department, by station, and by engine, you can take the guess work out of hose inventory. You can finally have a “cradle to grave” recorded history, and the current status of each piece of hose in your department. • Look up the location and status of a specific piece of hose • Hose records stored in one place, with database backup • Easy web interface from any computer • Hose Service Testing email reminders • Barcode Capability Interface for Unique Hose Identifier • Hose Inventory Management to assist in meeting ISO Asset Tracking Yes, we manufacture the best hose Made in the U.S.A. and with that comes, quality and commitment. The Hose Record Vault system is not designated strictly for our hose but all brands of hose. We realize many departments will have hose from multiple hose manufacturers - but our goal is to assist you in doing your job the best and safest way possible. Give yourself and your fellow personnel the peace of mind in knowing their hoses are up to standards and ready to go! GET YOUR HOSE IN CONTROL!

• Paranoia File Encryption is a universal file encryption application for iOS (iPhone/iPad/iPod), brought to you by Paranoia Works. It securely encrypts your private and confidential files or entire folders. P.F.E. works like an archiver, creating a new .enc file after encryption. The original file(s) can be deleted or wiped after the encryption process is completed. This can be done manually or set to be done automatically. • The app ensures real security as data is encrypted using the strongest encryption algorithms: Blowfish 448bit, AES 256bit, RC6 256bit, Serpent 256bit, Twofish 256bit, Threefish 1024bit, SHACAL-2 512bit, and Paranoia C4 2048bit ciphers are available. • Steganography: The application offers steganographic features, allowing you to conceal files within a JPEG image. Two algorithms are available: J-UNIWARD and F5. The selected algorithm works with your chosen symmetric cipher to create the final steganogram. • Versions for other systems and platforms are available on the application's homepage (download section - https://paranoiaworks.mobi/download/). • The AES web version is available at: https://pteo.paranoiaworks.mobi/paranoia-file-encryption/ • Free / PRO version differences: The PRO version contains more algorithms - specifically, Threefish 1024bit, SHACAL-2 512bit, and Paranoia C4 2048bit (which is a cascade of Threefish–Serpent–AES–SHACAL2). The free version can decrypt data encrypted by these advanced algorithms, but encryption is exclusive to the PRO version. In addition, the PRO version allows the selection of multiple files and their batch processing. It also provides a key to activate the PRO version of the desktop application: Paranoia File & Text Encryption for PC, Paranoia Text Encryption for PC and S.S.E. File Encryptor for PC • We greatly appreciate your feedback, including suggestions for improvement and reports of technical problems.
