PGP Corporation Receives Five-Star Rating in SC Magazine Annual Email Security Group Test

MENLO PARK, Calif., April 26 /PRNewswire/ -- PGP Corporation, a global leader in trusted data protection, today announced that PGP Universal™ Gateway Email earned top marks in the competitive, hands-on product review of email security solutions by SC Magazine, the leading publication for IT security professionals. PGP Universal™ Gateway Email earned a five-star rating in all categories – features, ease of use, performance, documentation, support, value for money and overall rating – and was recognized as a "top-notch" encryption gateway by the SC Magazine reviews team.

PGP Universal™ Gateway Email is a best-in-class solution that provides centrally managed and standards-based email encryption to secure email communications with customers and partners. PGP Universal Gateway Email automatically secures email by policy and does not require encryption software to be installed by email senders or recipients. Unlike the other security products reviewed that provide mostly content management features, PGP Universal Gateway Email was the only pure-play email security solution that deals mainly with encryption and digital signatures.

"Global organizations look to PGP Corporation for a solution that addresses the challenges faced with securing sensitive data in large email systems," said Phillip Dunkelberger, president and CEO of PGP Corporation. "This in-depth review validates our mission to provide customers with an enterprise-class, centrally managed and standards-based solution that secures valuable email communications."

This year's email security review was conducted differently then it has been in years past. Previously, products were divided into two categories – email security and email content management. For this round of reviews, SC Magazine decided to take an all-encompassing look at the most up-to-date email security products. The products tested exhibited both email security capabilities including encryption and digital signatures, as well as content management features like anti-virus, anti-spam and content filtering engines.

"PGP Corporation delivers a top-notch encryption gateway that is easy to use and contains excellent policy enforcement features," said Nathan Ouellete, SC Magazine reviewer. "The interface is very intuitive and is one of our favorite interfaces. The documentation is excellent. The PGP Corporation website also has everything that customers need to learn about the products. PGP Universal Gateway Email is definitely a valuable enterprise-class product for any size organization looking for gateway email encryption."
