CipherPass and GeoTrust Demonstrate Interoperability of Client Certificate Solutions at RSA Conference

CipherPass C-suite Solution Provides Enhanced Management Capabilities for GeoTrust's True Credentials Digital Certificate Solutions


SANTA MONICA, Calif., Feb. 13, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- CipherPass Corporation (Pink Sheets:CPHC), an innovator of digital certificate management solutions, today announced that it would be demonstrating its C-suite Solution with GeoTrust, Inc. at the RSA Conference in GeoTrust's Booth 1137, February 13-16, 2006 in San Jose, California. GeoTrust is a leader in identity verification and authentication solutions for e-business and a leading issuer of SSL and client certificates for network security. The C-suite solution from CipherPass is interoperable with GeoTrust's True Credentials client certificate offering, and helps enterprises manage the deployment and privacy compliance requirements needed in today's increasingly security-conscious and regulated business environment.

"We are seeing many large companies move away from user names and passwords to secure and cost-effective digital certificates for encryption and authentication to network applications," said Joan Lockhart, GeoTrust's vice president of marketing. "We are pleased to partner with CipherPass to demonstrate the interoperability of our solutions which streamline the deployment and management of digital certificates within large enterprises."

CipherPass C-suite(r) enables businesses to securely share sensitive or confidential electronic information among employees, partners and customers. CipherPass' secure service solutions offer significant benefits, including application integration, ease of deployment and cost reduction for enterprises managing trusted digital certificates. 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.

GeoTrust's True Credentials(r) client certificates provide two-factor authentication and the cryptographic functions necessary to encrypt all electronic transmissions so no unauthorized parties can read or understand the transmission. True Credentials enables organizations to overcome the inherent security risks typically associated with simple password schemes, open email communications and hardware-based authentication solutions. Provided as a fully-managed digital certificate service, it avoids the expensive hardware, infrastructure and set-up costs associated with other client authentication solutions. True Credentials provides a fast and easy way for enterprises to credential users and to deliver these client credentials electronically.

Glen Day, CipherPass' CEO, commented, "GeoTrust is one of our closest strategic partners and we have worked closely together to integrate our technologies to deliver a true business solution for data protection. We believe that RSA attendees will see an impressive display of technology innovation for managing digital certificates."
