Update to video players
Today's update to our website is typical of a recent series. In each of these the video files and images have been unchanged. Instead we've been working behind the scenes adding extra features to our playback technology. These features include better logging, better handling of firewalls and support for future technologies (as yet unreleased). These updates let us benefit from feedback and widespread incremental testing of our technology.

News section added to website
At Forbidden Technologies, we pride ourselves on our open relationship with customers and shareholders. Over the last year we have demonstrated the progress of our technical development by providing updates to the videos on our website. In addition, we are now offering other news of interest, directly through this new section of our website. We will use this channel to publish information for which the Regulatory News Service (RNS) would be inappropriate.
