FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

SubRosaSoft Ships CipherDisk 1.0
-- Live - transparent - encryption for OS X --

Bay of Plenty, New Zealand, (December 2nd, 2003)---SubRosaSoft.com, Ltd., a software company based in New Zealand focusing on privacy and system utility software, today announced the immediate availability of CipherDisk�. CipherDisk allows bullet-proof protection of data on internal drives, external firewire or USB drives, and CD/DVDs from prying eyes.

SubRosaSoft CipherDisk provides "driver level" 448-bit transparent on-the-fly encryption for OS X volumes. Once you convert a plain volume to an encrypted volume, it will be inaccessible to anyone until you enter a password to unlock it. When unlocked, the drive will run and behave normally like a regular volume.

"A lot of encryption products are cumbersome to use, requiring a user to create virtual volumes of disk images. On CipherDisk, we strived to deliver a product that users could use without having to learn anything extra, whilst providing the strongest encryption." Said Marko Kostyrko, co-author of CipherDisk and CEO of SubRosaSoft.

"The very core of SubRosaSoft is privacy technology. The company name is a latin legal term for 'in private'. We New Zealanders are very conscious of our rights to privacy--I am proud to deliver this technology to the entire world and yet achieve the most transparent product. CipherDisk is an essential tool in protecting your data from prying eyes." Concluded Ben Slaney, co-author of CipherDisk.
