<p>HIGHWARE SHIPS SAFEMAIL PRO FOR THE MACINTOSH</p>
<p>Brussels, September 2, 1999. - Highware, has released the pro version of<br />
its PGP compatible encryption software. People can communicate securely<br />
with others who use SafeMail, or with people who use a different<br />
implementation of PGP (Pretty Good Privacy) -- Mac, Windows or Unix.</p>
<p>The encrypted information -- email or files -- can be sent safely over the<br />
internet, or using any electronic channel or media. Encryption is<br />
recommended on the internet, because sending an email is much less secure<br />
than sending an ordinary letter or a fax. Internet emails and files<br />
normally travel in clear text from server to server and can be intercepted<br />
by a variety of people -- then read and even changed. With SafeMail the<br />
information is safe. SafeMail is about privacy: protecting and exchanging<br />
information in a secure way.</p>
<p>Olivier Merenne, Highware's Managing Director, said "We want to improve<br />
security for Macintosh computer users. We'd already made a good start<br />
before that: Our company had developed a comprehensive file and access<br />
security system for the Macintosh, and several other useful utilities.<br />
There are hundreds of thousands of active PGP users out there, and the<br />
Macintosh is making a comeback."</p>
<p>SafeMail Pro has features that take the strain out of managing encryption<br />
in corporations. For example, administrators can produce keys in batches<br />
for employees. There's no need to re-enter duplicate data for each key.</p>
<p>The 'message block' can also be personalised: the key-owner's name, email,<br />
key fingerprint or anything else can be included in plain text, above the<br />
encrypted part of a message. That's useful for people who receive the<br />
messages, especially if they're new to encryption.</p>
<p>Files can be encrypted and signed, just by using the Finder to add a suffix<br />
to the filename. The decryption and signature verification happens<br />
automatically when the suffix is removed.</p>
<p>"The advanced SafeMail Pro features are genuine time-savers and<br />
conveniences," said Mr Merenne. "Not just extra things for busy people to<br />
learn. "</p>
<p>"With SafeMail Pro, you can open multiple keyrings at the same time. So<br />
it's simple to administer different keyrings, and to drag and drop keys<br />
from one keyring to another. You can also set up a list of as many<br />
keyservers as you like and automatically connect to these servers when<br />
you're looking for someone's key."</p>
<p>'Cryptlets' are another time-saver -- small applications the users can<br />
create to hold one or more public keys. Any file or folder that's dropped<br />
onto a Cryptlet is encrypted with the keys held in that Cryptlet. A simple<br />
drag and drop, with no dialogue or hassles.</p>
<p>SafeMail Pro will soon support AppleScript, for even more flexibility.</p>
<p>SafeMail also integrates with Eudora, a help to many users. The software<br />
has an "Automatic Key Recognition" feature that selects the private key<br />
related to the "From:" field (there's an option to use another private key,<br />
if necessary). Each user in the Eudora address book can be assigned a<br />
specific key, so the software is really transparent: the message is<br />
encrypted to each recipient automatically.</p>
<p>The Eudora plug-in supports both PGP and PGP/MIME for full compatibility.<br />
(PGP/MIME requires the recipient to have the plug-in installed too, but the<br />
straight PGP-mode can be decrypted by any PGP compatible software.)</p>
<p>Award-winning software<br />
======================</p>
<p>Highware software is esteemed among Mac users. The company has won three<br />
awards from Apple for creating new system utilities that were so apt that<br />
people wondered why no one thought of them earlier. An even earlier win:<br />
Inventing the 'drag and drop between applications' method itself, now used<br />
by everyone. Highware also won a Ziff Davis Europe award for Technical<br />
Excellence.</p>
<p>The company's software is used by many of the largest corporations in the<br />
world. They use it to secure their networks of Macs, or make the machines<br />
handier to use. For example, 'FileGuard' software is a standard for<br />
Macintosh OS security. Other examples are DiskGuard, PopupFolder,<br />
FileCrypt, Personal Backup, MultiHome and OpenKeyServer. The software is<br />
also widely used by individual Mac users everywhere.</p>
<p>More about the way SafeMail works<br />
=================================</p>
<p>SafeMail uses public-key encryption. Messages or files are encrypted using<br />
a person's public key (a long number that the key's owner doesn't need to<br />
remember or look at). And only the owner of that public key can decrypt<br />
those secured messages. It's done by software in the person's computer: the<br />
software uses a private key that's related to the public key (the private<br />
key is always kept private).</p>
<p>Anyone's public key can be freely distributed and many keys are available<br />
on public key servers on the internet. For example, the Keyserver.Net<br />
network at <a href="http://www.keyserver.net/" title="http://www.keyserver.net/">http://www.keyserver.net/</a>.</p>
<p>A SafeMail user can also digitally 'sign' a message or file. That lets the<br />
person who receives the message check that it came from the sender, and<br />
that it hasn't been altered.</p>
<p>How to order<br />
============</p>
<p>SafeMail Pro can be ordered on CD from any of our distributors. There is a<br />
