MANCHESTER, England--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Internet service provider, So Purple, has launched a revolutionary new service to enable companies within the leisure industry to capitalise on the benefits of social networking, while offering their customers a fast, free and secure social WiFi service.

Purple WiFi allows companies to build brand awareness, attracting new customers to their premises without the need for big marketing budgets or costly time investment. Designed to primarily provide businesses with the free WiFi service that is demanded by todays consumers, Purple WiFi ensures that anyone using the service within a social space such as a bar, cafe, restaurant or hotel, will be required to simply like the relevant Facebook page, tweet about their location or Google+ the company. Combined this means that any international business can receive constant promotional access to their customers friends, followers and circles.

So Purple works with businesses to design a targeted login page to welcome their customers and promote relevant offers, communicate news and generally engage with potential audiences.

The business is also given access to a secure customer portal with tools at their disposal to view their customers WiFi usage behaviour in addition to the number of new Facebook fans and Twitter followers that the business has achieved social exposure with. Depending on the age, gender and WiFi patterns of the users, offers and updates can be carefully targeted to attract new footfall as well as rewarding existing loyalty.

Commenting on the new service, Gavin Wheeldon, CEO at So Purple Group Ltd, said: The idea for Purple WiFi came about because everyone expects WiFi wherever they go but the business sharing the internet connection doesnt gain anything in return and, in many cases, ends up with a slower and unsecure internet connection for their own business needs. Businesses should benefit more from offering a WiFi service to customers and Purple WiFi allows them to gain an understanding of their consumer demographics and while building brand awareness through social networking.

Unlike most WiFi services, Purple WiFi addresses the obvious security risk that companies often leave themselves wide open to, when offering free WiFi to consumer. Rather than providing a completely open signal, with no login or validation requirements and no way of capturing consumer usage information, Purple WiFi end users are authenticated via their social networking account, broadband credentials or by a voucher provided by staff.

The business is meanwhile provided with a private channel so that commercially sensitive traffic is kept separate form social traffic. All public WiFi users are also in an isolated mode so they cannot see or connect any other devices attached to the WiFi service, thereby protecting any interception of data passing through the router that they should not be able to see.

Kampala - An outbreak of the deadly Marburg virus in Uganda has spread to the capital Kampala after an infected woman travelled to the city and the death toll from the disease, a cousin of Ebola, climbed to five, a health official said on Monday.

The latest outbreak of another haemorrhagic fever, first confirmed on Friday in Kabale district, 430km southwest of Kampala, has rattled a country that only two weeks ago declared itself free of Ebola after it claimed at least 16 lives.

There is no vaccine or specific treatment for the Marburg virus, also known as Marburg haemorrhagic fever, which is transmitted through bodily fluids such as saliva and blood, or by handling infected wild animals such as monkeys.

"We have one case confirmed in Mulago Hospital while the number of the dead is now five," Rukia Nakamatte, spokesperson for the ministry of health told Reuters on Monday.

"Thirty -four contacts are being monitored and an isolation facility is being set up."

A health official told Reuters on Monday that the woman at Mulago, the country's largest referral hospital, had travelled to Kampala about five days ago and is a member of a family in Kabale which lost three people.

Health investigators have yet to determined the origin of the latest Marburg infection but Uganda's director general of health services, Dr Ruth Aceng, said on Friday that outbreaks of haemorrhagic fevers in Uganda tend to occur between June and September.

This is the period when villagers who go into the wild to collect fruit are likely to come into contact with wild animals such as fruit bats, a natural vector for the Marbug virus.

Elly Matte, a police spokesperson in Kabale, said people were alarmed about the viral outbreak. "We... might impose a quarantine if the situation worsens," he said.
