CALGARY, Alberta, Canada, Dec. 1 /CNW/ - JAWS Technologies Inc.

This software is currently available for beta testing to select accounts who desire to implement easy to use, fast, secure e-mail solutions. ''We have found that our corporate clients have security issues to solve right now,'' said Robert Kubbernus, CEO of JAWS Technologies Inc ''Hundreds of millions of e-mails are sent every day that are vulnerable to misuse because they are sent unencrypted. Our L5 E-mail Encryption solution means that companies today can protect their e-mail contents and attachments with one button encrypt/decrypt. This is the first product of its kind in a market that is demanding security today. Our Outlook 98 e-mail encryption product coupled with other strategic product announcements to follow, will clearly place JAWS as one of the leaders in this markets.'' In a recent product review, Outlook 98 beat out the competition, including Netscape Messenger and Qualcomm Eudora, with PC MAGAZINE(R) declaring that Outlook 98 ''is setting a new standard for Internet e-mail'' and CNET(TM) stating that it ''tops the Internet e-mail class.'' JAWS estimate that over 4.9 Million users have actively obtained Microsoft Outlook 98 since its release.
