GigaTrust Announces FY 2006 Results Achieving a Record 343% Year-to Year Sales Growth

Record Growth Fueled by Breakthrough Technology, New Enterprise Customers, and Demand for Software Across Public and Private Sectors

Herndon, VA (PRWEB) February 26, 2007-GigaTrust (also known as GigaMedia Access Corporation), the emerging market leader in the Content Security and Rights Management Services (RMS) market, today announced that it achieved record growth for the fiscal year which ended December 31, 2006. As a result of breakthrough technology and sales to Fortune 500 companies, hundreds of small businesses and government agencies, GigaTrust experienced a record year-to-year growth rate of 343%.

GigaTrust’s RMS software facilitates secure cross-enterprise collaboration for email, attachments, and web content. RMS software allows businesses to control and manage how people exchange sensitive information such as contracts, intellectual property, financial data, medical records, customer information, and price lists. It also allows businesses to establish and enforce secure corporate policies to protect everyday collaboration and commerce on the Internet. GigaTrust secures a document during transmission and goes one step further by controlling how the recipient can use the protected information. For example, GigaTrust can enforce a “view only” feature on the recipient’s computer to prohibit the email and attachment from being forwarded, printed, copied/pasted, saved as, and/or screen printed.

GigaTrust operates within the Windows environment and is the only technology that fully protects content on wireless devices such as BlackBerry.

“The biggest fear and costliest breach within enterprises today is the leakage of confidential information through email,” said Bob Bernardi, GigaTrust Chairman and CEO. “GigaTrust has addressed those issues through its breakthrough RM technology which enables enterprises to protect and control emails from anyone to anyone (enterprises, small business or individuals) in their supply chain. Our customers embraced this technology and, in 2006, we emerged as the technology leader in the content protection market in several important enterprise arenas including financial services, healthcare, legal, manufacturing, utilities, and government. Our customers found GigaTrust software simple to use, easy to deploy, and completely transparent to the publisher and recipient. With this behind us in 2006, our goal for 2007 is to be the clear leader for protecting confidential content in enterprises and small businesses, and to expand our market presence globally”.

1. Acquired significant new customers and expanded existing customer deployments of GigaTrust including eight new Fortune 1000 companies and thousands of new small business accounts.
