ZEPHYR COVE, Nev., May 14, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- VirnetX Holding
Corporation (NYSE MKT: VHC), an Internet security software and
technology company, announced today that its Gabriel Collaboration
Suite, an integrated suite of secure communication applications
featuring: Secure Mail, Secure Messaging, Secure Voice Call,
Secure Video Call and Secure Share & Sync, will be available
for public download starting Tuesday, May
19, 2015, at the Gabriel website: www.GabrielSecure.com.
Gabriel Collaboration Suite will be available for download at no
charge and will offer in-app purchase options. It will initially be
available on Android, Windows, Mac OS X and Linux, with more
operating system support to follow shortly.
"We are very excited to be releasing Gabriel for public use at
this time," said Dr. Robert Short,
VirnetX Chief Technical Officer and Chief Scientist. "Gabriel has
been designed and built with personal privacy and security as a
foundational principle. As a result, Gabriel provides
uncompromising data security, peer access control and privacy. In
contrast to the majority of social media and Internet communication
applications, Gabriel is designed so that users do not have to
transmit data to, or store data with, any third party, including
VirnetX. Users can therefore rest easy that their data is
stored only on their own devices."
Gabriel Collaboration Suite allows users, over mobile or WiFi
networks, to:
- Make free voice or video calls or send chat messages to other
Gabriel members in their network with the assurance that
transmission is secured and encrypted end-to-end.
- Take complete control of their emails, chat messages, files and
other private data, secured on their own devices, while enabling
authorized secure encrypted access from anywhere at any time.
- Create a network of trusted Gabriel contacts by inviting them
into their secure network directly from their Gabriel application
and share presence with them securely.
- Send and receive secure and encrypted emails directly from and
on your devices.
- Share files with other trusted Gabriel users in their network
directly from their devices without having to send it to VirnetX or
other third-party servers.
Gabriel Collaboration Suite employs VirnetX's patented Gabriel
Secure Communications Platform technology to create automatic
secure and encrypted end-to-end communication links between two
devices to circumvent the threats of hacking and data mining, and
minimize the threats of man-in-the-middle attacks while blocking
out undesired peers from listening in. Unlike other messaging
applications, Gabriel Collaboration Suite does not store any user
emails, chat messages user data in a server farm, and any email or
chat message sent using Gabriel are encrypted from viewing by any
third party or government agency. Gabriel Collaboration Suite
provides users with a single, easy to use interface that remains
consistent across all users' devices.
"We believe our Gabriel launch is a major milestone for VirnetX
and for everyone who wants to communicate privately without fear of
third parties listening to their communications or stealing their
data." said Kendall Larsen, VirnetX
CEO and President. "We believe Gabriel will be a significant
cost saver for businesses as it thwarts external attacks and
damaging intrusions."
As previously announced, there will be a Gabriel launch
presentation after the 2015 Annual Shareholders meeting on
Thursday, May 14, 2015 starting at
1 pm. The event will be held at the
Hard Rock Hotel & Casino – South Lake Tahoe.
WiFi and cellular data charges may apply when using some of
the VirnetX Products and Services.
