CipherPass Corporation Announces C-suite's Patent Pending Status


SANTA MONICA, Calif., Nov. 7, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- CipherPass Corporation, "CipherPass" (Pink Sheets:CPHC), has received patent-pending designation from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office for its C-suite privacy and security solutions. C-suite enables businesses to easily and securely share sensitive and confidential electronic information among staff, as well as with their business associates and customers. By partnering with the leading global managed digital certificate providers, VeriSign and GeoTrust, CipherPass' secure service solutions offer significant cost reductions for deploying and managing trusted digital certificates. As opposed to purchasing new client security applications, businesses and governments can rely upon C-suite to better secure their currently installed applications, such as Microsoft's Outlook email client and Adobe's Professional document creator. By leveraging existing corporate applications, C-suite creates a strategic, digital security framework that is easy to deploy, easy to use and cost-effective.

Crippling lawsuits, government fines, lost business, loss of consumer trust-these are the risks if sensitive corporate electronic data is compromised. The compliance mandates of HIPAA, GLBA, Sarbanes-Oxley and CA SB1386 require corporations to effectively protect their customers' confidential information. CipherPass C-suite keeps confidential files secure and email communications private. CipherPass delivers affordable, robust data protection and trust solutions for businesses of all types and sizes. CipherPass helps to protect your privacy and verifies trust in an electronic world.

The C-suite Advantage

C-safe: Easing the deployment of your digital ID

C-safe is a simple, but powerful, tool specifically designed to simplify the process of obtaining and using digital IDs (C-IDs). With C-safe, corporations can easily deploy thousands of C-IDs, issued from the most trusted certificate authorities. Staff can download and start using their personal C-IDs in 90 seconds or less.


 -- Uses industry-standard X.509 digital certificates (C-IDs).

 -- C-IDs are supplied by respected certificate authorities (CA), 
    including VeriSign and GeoTrust.

 -- Acts as the authentication mechanism to encrypt/decrypt data in 
    C-mail and C-vault. 

C-mail: Auto-configures your Outlook mail clients for secure email

C-mail enables users to easily send and receive secure email messages, including their attachments, using their existing Outlook email clients. Minutes after users enroll for their digital IDs (C-IDs), their Outlook email client is automatically re-configured and ready to send trusted and secure emails.


 -- Addresses privacy and security compliance legislation in major 
    industries, including health (HIPAA) and finance (SB1386, GLBA, 
    Sarbanes-Oxley).

 -- Digitally signs all outgoing e-mails so recipients can reliably 
    authenticate received e-mails

 -- Automatically updates and stores senders' public certificates 
    from incoming e-mail in the Outlook's Contacts address book.

C-vault: The secure, encrypted version of "My Documents"

C-vault creates a new, secure folder called My Vault. My Vault resembles Windows Explorer's My Documents in its look and feel. Simply drag and drop any file or folder into My Vault and the data is automatically encrypted using your C-ID. The data is protected from online hackers, laptop thefts and spyware programs.


 -- Information can only be accessed with the user's C-ID.

 -- Even if your computer or laptop is lost or stolen, your private 
    data will not be compromised.

 -- Uses federally approved AES 128-bit encryption algorithm. Unlike 
    Microsoft's Encrypted File System (EFS), C-vault can encrypt 
    files on CDs, DVDs, USB hard drives and floppies.
