Garden City, NY (PRWEB) July 13, 2003 -- Proginet Corporation announced the release of a unique B2B web services application that allows companies to use the Internet for secure data exchange with business partners.

SIFT(tm), Secure Internet File Transfer, is a B2B application that uses open standards (XML, SOAP, etc.) to "provide a flexible, Internet-based method to securely exchange data with business partners and protect against unauthorized access" says Arne Johnson, Senior Vice President and Project Director at Proginet. The SIFT client component automatically downloads without requiring business partners to purchase or install software.

"SIFT responds to customer requests for a convenient, secure way to collaborate with independent business partners electronically," explains Mr. Johnson. "Our product team worked with our customers, government agencies, financial institutions and healthcare organizations to identify and construct a comprehensive web services solution to facilitate file transfers using advanced authentication, authorization, and encryption."

Designed with security, simplicity, and scalability in mind, SIFT is compatible with the most widely used web services platforms available today. With AES and other encryption techniques, built-in proxy services, PKI Authentication and digital signatures, SIFT users are assured compliance with regulations such as GLBA, HIPAA, and Sarbanes-Oxley. Mr. Johnson explains, "SIFT enables you to work with your business partners in a dynamic, seamless, and secure environment."
