Under the agreement, TradeVertex Polska Sp. z o.o. will be able to resell HushMail Private Label and HushMail Professional to its primed customer base in industries such as finance, healthcare, retail and legal.
TradeVertex Polska Sp. z o.o. was concerned about the lack of awareness and technology, protecting against e-security threats, for digital corporate business in Poland and the surrounding eastern European countries. This has proved to be a valuable community in the burgeoning migration from the old paper based world to Internet based business.
Adding value to its existing offerings TradeVertex Polska Sp. z o.o. will support HushMail Private Labelâ„? and HushMail ProfessionalTM, the Web-based and desktop secure messaging solutions, that enable businesses to be completely certain with whom they are dealing with in the wired world and that their digital communications are fully protected from unauthorized access. Polish business will benefit from this partnership between TradeVertex Polska Sp. z o.o. and Hush Communications through the supply of the most up-to-date e-security services.
“We see a great deal of opportunity in offering Hush’s secure services to our customers,” said Janusz Glowacki, Director of Information Technology for TradeVertex Polska Sp. z o.o. “E-commerce in Eastern Europe is set to explode, with 10% of Polish Internet users already banking online, only a year after the first online bank was launched. TradeVertex Polska Sp. z o.o. can leverage its expertise to introduce Hushs’ market-leading technology into existing and future solutions for our customers.”
“This is an exciting partnership,” said Jon Matonis, President and CEO of Hush Communications. ” TradeVertex Polska Sp. z o.o. brings an eager customer base and existing relationships to Hush Communications, while Hush provides industry-leading solutions for e-mail security and management to TradeVertex Polska Sp. z o.o. and its customers.”
TradeVertex Polska Sp. z o.o. has already begun to sell HushMail Private Label within its customer base to an excellent response. With HushMail Private Label, TradeVertex can now offer its customers a complete e-mail security solution that includes a transparently managed PKI system, secure communication storage and digital signature facility.
“For our customers who transact mission critical business documents and messages online, it is crucial for us to offer and maintain high standards of security,” adds Glowacki. “HushMail Private Label meets and surpasses these standards. In addition, Private Label’s easy integration and key management make the solution easy to install and manage.”
