Media Release: PGP Corporation Reaches 30,000 Corporate Customers PGP CORPORATION REACHES 30,000 CORPORATE CUSTOMERS, $30 MILLION IN ORDERS FOR ITS ENCRYPTION SOLUTIONS IN FIRST 2 YEARS Includes 90% of Fortune 100, 75% of Forbes International 100 Companies Palo Alto, CA/09 September, 2004 — PGP Corporation, a global leader in enterprise encryption solutions, today announced that more than 30,000 companies have purchased its email, disk, mobile, and FTP/batch encryption solutions since becoming an independent company in 2002. In addition, the company has booked in excess of $30 million in GAAP orders in the last 2 years. The company attributes its success to positive customer response to the new PGP Universal architecture, which has increased adoption in large enterprises. PGP Corporation's industry-leading, standards-based encryption is increasingly used to secure worldwide communications between large numbers of partners, customers, vendors, and suppliers. "Many have asked how we are doing," said Phillip Dunkelberger, president and CEO of PGP Corporation. "Not only have we been selected by more than 30,000 corporate customers since becoming independent in 2002, we now support all encryption standards (OpenPGP and S/MIME), are advised by industry experts (ISSA and (ISC) 2), partner with other industry leaders (Symantec, RIM, GeoTrust), and have shipped an award-winning, enterprise encryption architecture (PGP Universal)." "This is exactly where we want to be in the company's growth cycle," commented Alex Doll, chief financial officer of PGP Corporation. "Our excellent financial performance has allowed us to accelerate investments in product development, business development, and customer support. Enterprise customers are very comfortable with our financial position and our ability to be a long-term infrastructure partner." "We just closed our best quarter in company history," continued Mr. Dunkelberger. "Our growth was fueled by large companies deploying the PGP product suite and requiring partners to securely communicate using PGP solutions. We now have more than 200 partners selling PGP encryption products worldwide. This success is a reflection of a growing understanding that confidential and proprietary data needs to be encrypted to secure company assets, to protect customer information, and to comply with worldwide privacy and security regulations." He added, "We continue to innovate and invest in the entire PGP product line. We will meet customer requirements for a unified policy and proxy-based PGP encryption suite by integrating our automatic and transparent PGP Universal architecture into our popular desktop products. Customers increasingly trust PGP solutions not only because we publish source code for peer review, but also because they believe we can successfully build this complex technology." PGP products are purchased by industry leaders around the world, especially in the financial services, health care, technology, and manufacturing market segments.
