July 21, 2003
Dublin, Ireland, July 21st, 2003 – Network Research Lab Ltd. (NR Lab), encrypted e-mail provider, announced today that it offers HIPAA-compliant service of secure e-mail, Co-Mail.com.

It is important for doctors and patients to communicate in the ways that are not only the most convenient for them but also highly secure. That is why NR Lab puts forward an easy to deploy technology, which allows healthcare organizations to set up their Internet e-mail communication, which complies with the level of encryption recommended in the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA). NR Lab recognizes the need to meet HIPAA compliance to maintain patient confidentiality. Thus, Co-Mail.com allows all e-messaging protection requirements to be met both quickly and cost-effectively.

Not only is it crucial for healthcare organizations, doctors and patients to keep their information confidential, but to be able to easily use it and access 24 hours seven days a week. That is why the Co-Mail.com service designed by NR Lab not only 100% secure, but the service, which any patient or doctor can easily work with having very little knowledge of Internet or data protection.

We also made it possible for doctors and healthcare organizations to setup their own online secure e-mail server and operate it from any location. Thus any private doctor can set up a highly secure e-mail system for the patients on his list in 15 minutes. This online e-mail system will grant 100% uncompromising information security and will be under 100% of his/her control.

"We are pleased to be able to offer an easy to use and affordable Co-Mail.com service - the solution for healthcare organizations and their clients. The Co-Mail.com service enables to maintain full HIPAA compliance, providing complete confidentiality of records and communications", commented Dmitriy Levin, Business Development Executive of NR Lab, “we are sure that Co-Mail.com will satisfy any healthcare organization and let us find a lot of new healthcare partners and we’ll secure their private e-mail transmissions over the Internet completely”.

Rainbow's iKeyTM USB Token Integrated Into Web-based Secure E-mail S-Mail.com
July 7, 2003
Dublin, Ireland, July 7th, 2003 - Network Research Lab Ltd. (NR Lab), a new provider of encrypted e-mail, today announced that the iKeyTM USB token technology of Rainbow Technologies Inc. (http://www.rainbow.com) has been integrated with the web-based secure e-mail S-Mail.com. This is the first time a USB device, that can secure any enabled workstation, has been successfully integrated with a secure web application S-Mail.com that has OpenPGP and SSL encryption mechanisms available.

Dmitriy Levin, Business Development Executive of NR Lab, said: "to meet new needs of users by creating of new options at S-Mail.com we should integrate it with secure platforms or appliances in order to deliver secure services to end users in a convenient way". Securing application and adding two-factor authentication to S-Mail.com makes it more secured as a tool for digital communications. This is crucial because they are the core of today's business or personal interactions. "Understanding that, we see it changes the way many implement security: from a perimeter security of networks focus moves to the application level. These trend results in an emergence of platforms, technologies and applications, that are expected to flourish", he added.

Thus NR Lab has implemented the integration of the iKeyTM USB token with the secure e-mail web service S-Mail.com. IKeyTM, a well-known USB token from Rainbow Technologies Inc. (http://www.rainbow.com), can now be applied to S-Mail.com, a secure e-mail that uses public key encryption. NR Lab has added this new feature to the encrypted e-mail to enable a two-factor authentication at web service of S-Mail.com. Therefore, the benefits of S-Mail.com as secure e-mail fruitfully converge with the benefits of iKey USB token on the application level.

In the past, S-Mail.com relied on just a one-factor method of authentication: now, it additionally offers access via a USB token. iKeyTM technologies were developed with awareness that passwords alone don't provide protection. At the application level, only users applying a token with a correct PIN are able to access their e-mails or complete operations at S-Mail.com. The concept is quite simple: no access to secure application is possible unless the iKeyTM is attached to the USB port with the right PIN or correct password entered (i.e. going by one-factor authentication).

"We think that not only the large businesses need to keep their information secure and protected. The individuals, SMEs, SOHO, and others also have the challenge of protecting their digital information", concluded Dmitriy Levin, Business Development Executive, NR Lab. "Securing ultimately their e-mails with S-Mail.com, Network Research Lab ltd. increases the security of communications according NR Lab's mission".

Following a test period, iKeyTM technology is now available at S-Mail.com. It's now possible to export the private key, used with S-Mail.com, onto the USB Token iKeyTM that can contain a username, password, private key and other data. All it takes for the user is to put his PIN-code and sign into their secure mailbox at S-Mail.com. To do this, the virtual keyboard is activated by double clicking on the password field on the login page. Any user can perform both operations - exporting S-Mail's private key on the token and entering iKeyTM's PIN to sign in. The user needs to have an S-Mail.com account and iKeyTM to carry out this process. This requirement provides integrative protection at both the token and application level. S-Mail.com offers free and paid accounts both accessible via iKeyTM.

S-Mail.com servers automatically find and retrieve usernames, private keys and other data needed for login via PIN-code reception in the authentication process. While processing the data requested and checking the digital signature, the server accepts user authentication. After authentication, the entire sign-in process is completed. This innovation provides access to secure e-mail via the USB token iKeyTM, resulting in trust in the secure services of S-Mail.com.
