In fact, CipherTrust has seen a significant increase in TLS adoption within its customer base, and as the market for policy-driven e-mail encryption has dramatically accelerated, and CipherTrust has risen to meet the demand in growing their encrypted e-mail business.

"In the last six months, many vendors have announced partnerships related to e-mail encryption. While partnerships are interesting, Baptist Health Care was more interested in having a broad range of policy-driven technology options from which to choose as our encryption requirements continue to evolve," said Jim Donaldson, privacy and security officer for Baptist Health Care Corporation. "CipherTrust displays the highest level of customer success, offers the broadest product options and has the deepest technology partnerships in the industry, and that is why we are in the process of deploying the IronMail Privacy Architecture for our encrypted e-mail needs."

To ease administrators' headaches related to e-mail encryption, the latest version of CipherTrust's Secure Web Delivery offering automates many processes which typically drained both staffing resources and time from enterprise IT departments. Password management, for instance, is completely automated, eliminating administrator intervention from the password retrieval and new password generation process.

Additionally, Secure Web Delivery 2.0 frees end users from the fear and uncertainty associated with many e-mail encryption solutions by making the product more end user-friendly, not simply administrator-friendly. Once directed to the secure-password protected Web interface to retrieve a message, an IronMail user will find that it looks more like a typical webmail interface. Furthermore, Secure Web Delivery 2.0 makes it much easier for end users to execute simple yet necessary tasks within the interface, such as print e-mails and add attachments.

 enterprise-wide requirements, making 2005 a watershed year for enterprise encrypted e-mail," said CipherTrust Senior Vice President of Sales and Business Development Mike Van Bruinisse. "The secure mail gateway is the best place to deploy encrypted e-mail, offering the most compelling combination of ease to use, both from an administrator's and also an end-users perspective, and policy enforcement capabilities. While the competition is just starting to form partnerships, CipherTrust is solving customer problems."
