PRESS RELEASE

ANN ARBOR, MI (Oct. 7) Greenview Data, Inc., a leading provider of email security and filtering solutions and developers of the award-winning SpamStopsHere, the most accurate hosted anti-spam solution on the market, announced today that it has partnered with ZixCorp (Nasdaq: ZIXI), the leader in email encryption services, to provide in-the-cloud, compliance-ready e-mail encryption services to customers who seek to secure the transmission of sensitive data. The new offering automates the e-mail encryption process to ensure the security of e-mail communications, reduce the risk of data breach and help companies meet regulatory compliance requirements.

"E-mail is the most widely used business application in nearly every organization, and for those that handle sensitive data - such as patient records or account-holder information - the risk of an accidental security lapse over e-mail is great," said Ted Green, president of Greenview Data. "ZixCorp's e-mail encryption service leads the industry, and we're very pleased to offer this valuable service to our customers."

The addition of e-mail encryption services bolsters Greenview Data's already highly regarded line of anti-spam, e-mail security and e-mail archiving solutions to provide a comprehensive Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) e-mail security solution. This continuum of affordable, hosted services makes enterprise-grade e-mail security, compliance and risk management accessible for customers of all sizes - from the Fortune 500 to the solopreneur - to protect this business-critical mode of communication from the risk of breach, data loss or disaster.

In addition to HIPAA, SOX and other federal standards, new privacy laws currently proposed or already in place in many states include provisions that hold businesses responsible for maintaining the security and integrity of sensitive data. In addition, many companies will not do business with organizations that do not meet the new, more stringent compliance mandates.

"Faced with steep fines and penalties, not to mention the risk of a damaged reputation that can mean a loss of business, these organizations simply cannot afford to risk a data breach," said Rick Spurr, chief executive officer for ZixCorp. "ZixCorp's e-mail encryption service takes the guesswork out of securing e-mail communications to assure compliance and provide peace of mind to IT security managers and CFOs alike."

As the largest e-mail encryption provider, ZixCorp protects millions of e-mail addresses, including those at some of the largest names in the healthcare, insurance, financial and government sectors. The company's easy-to-use service leverages ZixDirectory, eliminating the need for certificate and key management for customers, to provide a turnkey solution that allows customers to communicate seamlessly and securely with no additional work.

ZixCorp's Best Method of Delivery system relieves the sender of the responsibility for choosing the best method to send a secure message, virtually eliminating the risk of human error. With support for desktop and gateway clients using a variety of encryption standards, including S/MIME, OpenPGP and TLS, ZixCorp's customizable encryption policies allow clients to establish their own security parameters based on external mandates and internal standards. Once policies are configured, encrypted e-mail is automatically delivered in the best manner for the end user.

"ZixCorp is the premier provider of e-mail encryption," Green said. "Now, Greenview Data customers can leverage this experience and knowledge to minimize the risk of data breach or compliance failures for themselves and all of their clients."
