Top-Flight Team Launches Secure64 With Core Patent Technology to Make Network Communications Faster and More Secure.


ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Secure64 Software Corporation:

--Management Team, Including Dr. Bill Worley, Principal Architect of PA-RISC (Precision Architecture-RISC) A proprietary RISC-based CPU architecture from HP that was introduced in 1986. It is the foundation of HP's 3000 and 9000 computer families. See IA-64.  and PA-Wide Word (the basis for Itanium(R)); and Peter Cranstone, Co-developer of mod_gzip for Apache, to Lead 64-Bit Software Development Company

A team of industry heavyweights today announced the formation of Secure64 Software Corporation -- a new 64-bit software development company with core patent-pending technology poised to dramatically improve the security and performance of network communications. Secure64 is solving many of the performance overhead and security limitations of current general purpose operating systems Operating systems can be categorized by technology, ownership, licensing, working state, usage, and by many other characteristics. In practice, many of these groupings may overlap.  and hardware technologies by taking full advantage of the capabilities inherent within the Itanium(R) microprocessor architecture.

"The days of having to compromise security and stability for speed in network communications will soon be over," stated Peter Cranstone, CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. , Secure64. "Secure64 will transform the industry by significantly increasing the performance of network processing while solving the security problems associated with delivering intensive, mission-critical content on the network -- all without disrupting existing network infrastructures. Bringing this Holy Grail to the masses is part of our vision of creating a new market standard for security and performance of network communications."

To help realize this vision, Secure64 has assembled an impressive management team comprising leaders from the technology and financial industries, including:

--Denny Georg, PhD, Chairman - Held several key leadership positions at Hewlett-Packard, including VP and CTO (Chief Technical Officer) The executive responsible for the technical direction of an organization. See CIO and salary survey.  of HP Services, VP and CTO of Information Technology Strategy Corporate IT, and VP and CTO of E-Services Solutions, Business Customer Organization.

--Peter Cranstone, CEO - Co-developer of mod_gzip for Apache -- the original real-time content accelerator (data compression data compression

Process of reducing the amount of data needed for storage or transmission of a given piece of information (text, graphics, video, sound, etc.), typically by use of encoding techniques.
) technology for the Internet. Prior to co-founding Secure64, Mr. Cranstone was CEO for Remote Communications (1) Communicating via long distances.

--Steve Goodbarn, Co-Founder, President - Formerly Vice President of Finance, CFO See Chief Financial Officer.  and an Executive Committee member at Janus Capital Corporation. During this period Janus grew assets under management Assets Under Management (AUM) is a term used by financial services companies in the mutual fund and money management or investment management business to gauge how much money they are managing.  from $10 billion to more than $330 billion and operations expanded internationally. Mr. Goodbarn is a member of the Board of Directors of EchoStar Communications Corporation EchoStar Communications Corporation (NASDAQ: DISH) is the parent company of DISH Network and the maintainer of the satellite fleet that provides the signal that DISH Network markets.  (Nasdaq:DISH).

--Dr. Bill Worley Jr., PhD, Co-Founder, Vice President and Chief Technology Officer - Retired from Hewlett-Packard in 2002 as HP Fellow, Distinguished Contributor, and Chief Scientist. At HP he was the technical director and principal architect of both the PA-RISC and PA-Wide Word (the basis for Itanium(R)) processor architectures. He is credited with 16 patents and three patents pending for the Secure64 secure platform.

--Domenic Gianfrancesco, Vice President, Sales & Marketing - Brings more than 22 years of channel sales and marketing experience with companies including Extreme Networks, FORE Systems/Marconi Communications and Access Graphics (now Access Distribution, a General Electric Company).

--Joe Gersch, Vice President, Product Delivery - Retired from Hewlett-Packard with 24 years R&D experience on such significant products as HP OpenView HP OpenView was a Hewlett Packard product range consisting of an extensive portfolio of network and systems management products. In 2007 the entire HP OpenView portfolio was rebranded under the strengthened HP Software name. , HP Smart Card Center, HP Enterprise Networking The networking infrastructure in a large enterprise with multiple computer systems and networks of different types is extraordinarily complex. Due to the myriad of interfaces that are required, much of what goes on has little to do with the real data processing of the payroll and orders.  and Security, HP Engineering Workstations, CD Writer, Tape Storage Products, and HP UX.

In addition to its uniquely qualified management team, Secure64 has three core patents pending that cover its application environment and network communication architecture. "Secure64 is the first company to take full advantage of the Itanium architecture's unique attributes," stated Dr. Bill Worley, VP and CTO, Secure64. "Our patent-pending technology exploits the chip's unique capabilities for parallelism An overlapping of processing, input/output (I/O) or both.

1. parallelism - parallel processing.
2. (parallel) parallelism - The maximum number of independent subtasks in a given task at a given point in its execution. E.g.
 and compartmentalization. Utilizing protection IDs and memory access controls allows us to provide the highest levels of security for network communications. This enables Secure64 to capitalize on Cap´i`tal`ize on`

 the chip's large register sets and high instruction-level parallelism to significantly boost network performance."

The first general availability of Secure64 products is scheduled for release in Summer 2005.
