There is a growing global requirement for commercial, medical, legal and financial communications to be made entirely secure, protected from the unauthorised, the hacker or the identity thief.  ArticSoft has developed a suite of digital signature and encryption products delivering government grade security at a very competitive price. Under the name of FileAssurity, these products have been launched, including an OpenPGP version, and have been very well received by customers.

SEGF admired the early efforts of ArticSoft’s expert management and invested £250,000 to finance the development and marketing of its products both in the UK and US, where regulatory compliance for information security is an increasing requirement for doing business.
