REDWOOD CITY, Calif.—August 7, 2006—Ingrian® Networks, Inc. formally unveiled a new brand identity today that represents a significant milestone in the company’s history and further signifies the company’s evolution to a compliance-driven data privacy solutions company.  Featuring dedicated hardware appliances and patent-pending cryptography software, Ingrian’s data privacy solutions deliver capabilities for column and field level encryption, seamless integration with existing network infrastructure, and centralized key and policy management.

“Ingrian is becoming the vendor of choice for enterprise encryption solutions and we intend to grow the value of our brand as we evolve the company,” said Erich Baumgartner, vice president of sales and marketing for Ingrian. “This evolution allows Ingrian to be better recognized for our contributions, establish a stronger emotional connection with our audiences, and strengthen our overall position in the marketplace.”

Ingrian has been driving a fundamental shift in its approach to market that began with the introduction of Ingrian DataSecure® Platforms.  Focusing on the platform model, Ingrian has achieved significant traction in delivering data encryption solutions to three key market segments:  retail, payment processing and financial services.  The company also has also announced a vertical bundle solution geared towards the specific needs of higher education.

“The new tagline ‘Relax. Your Data is Compliant™’ is a simple expression that clearly states who we are and what we do,” continued Baumgartner.  “This tagline is Ingrian’s brand promise to deliver encryption solutions to help enterprises meet regulatory compliance requirements and protect their most valuable assets: customers and data.”
