TradeWave Makes Secure Electronic Commerce a Reality for the Internet; TradeWave's VPI Establishes Private Communications Paths for Business-to-Business Financial Transactions.

AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 21, 1995--TradeWave Corporation, formerly EINet, today unveiled a broad suite of integrated software products and services for corporations that want to harness the communications and information broadcasting abilities of the Internet to communicate and conduct electronic commerce. The company is announcing new products that make business-to-business transactions over the Internet a reality, as well as major improvements to the popular MacWeb and winWeb Internet navigators. With the products announced today, a corporation can create its own Virtual Private Internet (VPI), a network that uses the Internet for network connections between corporate sites and business partners while maintaining corporate confidentiality and security through stringent security and access control mechanisms. The products are slated to ship in the fourth quarter of 1995.

"Until now, Internet electronic commerce has focused on the retail credit marketplace," said Alexander Cavalli, TradeWave vice-president of strategic development. "Although business-to-business systems are more complex and require many more layers of security, there are definite corporate uses for the Internet and real opportunities in conducting major financial transactions over this medium."

A pioneer in the evolution of the Internet into a mission critical business tool, TradeWave Corporation's VPI solutions consist of the new TradeSecret security products, combined with the updated TradeWare client and server software. Use together, TradeSecret and TradeWare provide all of the software tools necessary for secure electronic commerce over the Internet.

TradeSecret Products --------------------

Although the Internet is known as an environment where information is published for all eyes to see, corporations require that their information be accessed only by the appropriate people. TradeSecret is a collection of software, services and APIs that enable secure Internet-based communications.

TradeAuthority - Before actually using the VPI, a user or service must first "join" the VPI by registering with the certification authority. TradeAuthority is TradeWave's certification authority service for providing electronic keys for encrypting the user's information and the electronic certificate that verifies the user's identity. Access to this service is online, automated and fully integrated into the rest of TradeWave's VPI offering.

TradeKey Manager - Before the application sends the information, it secures th message by encrypting it and attaching the user's electronic certificate (which authenticates the user). The TradeKey Manager provides all these security functions for the TradeWare clients (MacWeb and winWeb). TradeKey Manager transparently supplies authentication information and manages certificates. TradeWave designed these functions as a separate component so that other applications can be enabled for security.

TradeAccess Manager - As in all corporate networks, all users cannot have access to all corporate information. In a true VPI, the system must be able to restrict what can and cannot be accessed by each user. For the information requested by the user, TradeAccess Manager determines if the user has access rights to that information. Access to information is restricted at the document level by using access control lists (ACLs). ACLs are lists of users and the resources they can access. ACLs can specify individual users as well as groups of users.

APIs - World Wide Web navigators are not the only way to send/receive data over the internet. Because of this, TradeWave also provides application program interfaces (APIs) that enable a VP customer to build security and access control into its own business applications. These APIs include the Certification Authority API, the Access Control API, and the Generic Security Services API.

TradeWare Products MacWeb and winWeb - TradeWave's popular Internet navigators have been upgraded in functionality. These products now contain all of the necessary features of competitive Web browsers. What separates these products is that they benefit from tight integration with the TradeSecret products for the full spectrum of VP security features. The following is a list of some of the new features added to MacWeb and winWeb: -0-

    -- In-line JPEG Support
    -- Support for Extended HTML (centering, tables, etc.)
    -- Support for Background Images
    -- Newsreader Support
    -- Mailto: Support
    -- Search Function Integrated with the TradeWave Galaxy
       Directory Service

TradeServer - This is a secure Web server that supports data encryption and public key authentication to ensure confidentiality and accountability. TradeServcer can be integrated with the TradeAccess Manager so that you can restrict access to TradeServer resources on a user-by-user and document-by-document basis. The TradeServer graphical user interface lets you configure, administer and monitor multiple information servers.
