Zix Corporation (ZixCorp) (NASDAQ: ZIXI), the leader in
email encryption services, announces that Summit Medical
Group has signed a three-year renewal for ZixCorp® Email
Encryption Services. Summit first deployed ZixCorp solutions in
2003 to protect patient data in external email communication and
meet the compliance requirements of the Health Insurance
Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). In its third
renewal, Summit continues to select ZixCorp solutions based on its
reliable technology and user convenience.
“We need an effective solution that just works. ZixCorp Email
Encryption Services meet all our needs and offer turnkey
implementation,” said Ron Scoggins, Vice President, Information
Services for Summit Medical Group. “Typically, security solutions
work in direct opposition to productivity. Working with ZixCorp,
we’ve found its email encryption to be one of the most convenient
security methods out there.”
“Security and convenience rarely go hand-in-hand, but we believe
ease-of-use is crucial in providing truly effective security to our
customers,” said Rick Spurr, ZixCorp’s Chairman and Chief
Executive Officer. “We’re pleased that Summit Medical Group
continues to find value in our easy-to-use email encryption
solutions.”
Summit uses ZixGateway® to send secure email from
physicians and staff across more than 50 locations. Summit also
leverages ZixCorp’s reporting service to actively manage their
email encryption compliance responsibilities.
“The reporting capabilities are essential for our company and
compliance with HIPAA. We conduct email audits regularly, and we
are very satisfied with the audit trail available through ZixCorp’s
robust reporting,” said Scoggins.
