Provides Update on Development and Commercial Roll Out

Ottawa, Oct. 29, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NEWMEDIAWIRE -- Validian Corporation (OTC: VLDI; “Validian” or the “Company”), a leading innovator in cyber security technology, today is pleased to announce that it is engaged in comprehensive testing with several different prospects with the objective to license, install and deploy our technology upon successful testing.

Validian has persevered through the past 2 years to break through barriers to market entry by undertaking the following: 

• We built a remote test and development platform, which facilitates multiple parties testing at the same time. Anyone qualified by us can be issued credentials and begin comprehensive testing in minutes. This platform has removed several barriers for prospects, including reducing the allocation of their internal resources, eliminating the need to use their own testing labs and enabling testing by remotely located cyber security experts.
• We built a comprehensive app for testing all of the ValidianProtect features and capabilities. The testing app can be modified quickly to adapt to forms and areas of testing that vary among different prospects. Now there are two state-of-the-art apps that can be used to test Validian's features and capabilities as well as undergo a myriad of different forms of penetration testing via various types of cyber attacks.
• We extended our core technology by building out certain capabilities that some of our prospects required.
• We launched a new website that supports promoting and licensing our technology.

As well, the Confidential Computing Consortium, comprised of major technology companies, has recently identified the next priority area for cyber security – securing data in use and data in memory. Validian already does both, as well as provides controls, tracking and alerts on the permitted and prohibited uses of data, and all on a software only basis. No appliances or other hardware are required.

Also, a recently issued independent global report, which found the Runtime Application Self-Protection (RASP) Market as one of the fastest growing areas of cyber security to 2026, identified Validian Corporation as a provider of RASP technology.

These have acted as a catalyst to renewed interest from our prospects, which helped to engage them in comprehensive testing for the purpose of licensing and deployment.
