“Our results continue to exceed expectations,” noted Alex Doll, PGP Corporation"s chief financial officer. “Not only did we enjoy a double-digit million-dollar quarter, but we also booked the largest single order in the company"s history.”

Adoption of PGP solutions by Fortune® 100 and DAX companies remains strong. “Enterprise-class customers continue to rely on us to address threats to data security and comply with regulations that require protecting confidential information,” said Phillip Dunkelberger, president and CEO. “They also demand time-tested solutions that interoperate with their established infrastructure; are easy to use, deploy, and manage; and lower their costs.” Added Mr. Dunkelberger, “Why PGP Corporation? Because we offer the most compelling product suite in the industry. Our solutions are mature, innovative, non-proprietary, and vetted by researchers, technologists, and customers globally. Companies often choose us because they will not risk their reputation, brand, and proprietary information on solutions that are not comprehensive.”
