IronPort Positioned in Leaders Quadrant for 2007 Email Encryption Magic Quadrant

(Dec 18, 2007)-- IronPort Systems, a Cisco business unit and provider of enterprise spam, virus and spyware protection, today announced that the Company has been positioned in the Leaders Quadrant of Gartner's Magic Quadrant for Email Encryption. Gartner defines leaders as performing well today, having a clear vision of market direction and actively building competencies to sustain their leadership position in the market.

"IronPort is thrilled and pleased to be positioned in the Leaders Quadrant for Email Encryption," said Tom Gillis, Vice President of Marketing for IronPort Systems. "IronPort PXE encryption technology satisfies compliance requirements while providing the opportunity to extend into areas that can add tangible business value. IronPort provides the only email encryption technology that combines universal accessibility with ease-of-use, and is proven in mission-critical deployments of up to 30 million recipients."

IronPort PXE encryption technology combines with the next-generation compliance filters of the IronPort C-Series email security appliances to fulfill HIPAA, SOX, GLB and other regulatory requirements for auditable, policy-driven email encryption. The nature of IronPort's email encryption solution ensures that users can send and receive encrypted messages without any IT intervention. Recipients of secure messages do not need to install any proprietary software in order to decrypt and open secure messages, regardless of which mail client they use. And unlike legacy public-key based encryption schemes, there is no need to pre-exchange encryption keys before sending messages, making this an ideal encryption solution for ad-hoc business-to-business or business-to-consumer email.
