Boca Raton, Fla., March 29, 2005 – Interfuse Technology Corp. today announced it has received Patent number 6,874,139 from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office for key elements of its OfficeLock® file-security software technology.

The Patent is official recognition of a groundbreaking approach to data security that automatically provides security policy enforcement at the end point of use (electronic files and email messages), within and beyond the corporate network. Patents on other OfficeLock technology components are pending.

OfficeLock Enterprise is a multi-function security solution that embeds corporate security-policy attributes – including encryption and usage restriction – within files and email messages. This enables organizations to enforce their security policy by protecting information inside or outside their security perimeter – independent of any server connection or network security level.

OfficeLock G2 meets or exceeds U.S. Government requirements for processing sensitive-but-unclassified (SBU) data. Both OfficeLock Enterprise and OfficeLock G2 include functionality that integrates a variety of enterprise biometric authentication, directory services and Application Protection Technology.

OfficeLock has been successfully used by corporations and government agencies to control access to the most sensitive information and email messages.

“The awarding of this patent represents another important milestone for our company. It demonstrates Interfuse’s leadership in the ongoing effort to help businesses reduce financial losses and brand erosion caused by data security breaches,” said Interfuse President and CEO Phil Viscomi. “Our products help businesses enforce information-security standards and reduce leakage of sensitive information. This provides security officials the confidence to exchange proprietary data and comply with worldwide regulatory mandates.”
