StrikeForce Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB: SFOR) announced today that
it has filed a Complaint in the U.S. District Court for the
District of New Jersey seeking a declaratory judgment that (1) it
does not infringe a patent for customer authentication technology
owned by Authentify Patent Co., LLC ("Authentify"), and (2) the
Authentify patent is invalid under the Patent Act. On April 26,
Authentify filed a patent infringement action against StrikeForce
in federal district court in Seattle, Washington, claiming that
StrikeForce has infringed Authentify's patent, U.S. Patent No.
6,934,858.
"Today's filing is part of our continuing effort to protect our
rights and position in this increasingly important market," stated
Mark L. Kay, CEO of StrikeForce. "We will respond to the case in
Washington State if and when we are served, and pursuant to the
court's rules and procedures."
StrikeForce has retained Blank Rome LLP, a national law firm, to
represent it in patent litigation. "The engagement of a law firm of
such quality and reputation to vindicate our rights to market and
sell our out-of-band technology products further strengthens our
ability to protect our Intellectual Property (IP) and increase our
revenues, which we worked diligently for many years to develop,"
commented Mark L. Kay, CEO of StrikeForce.
