Zix Corporation and Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center Extend Agreement

DALLAS — March 10, 2010 — Zix Corporation (ZixCorp®), (Nasdaq: ZIXI), the only email encryption service designed with your most important relationships in mind, has renewed and expanded its contract with Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center, a leading North Carolina health system. This latest agreement is a 42-month extension of Wake Forest Baptist’s original agreement. ZixCorp and Wake Forest’s successful relationship will have spanned nine successful years upon completion of this latest extension.
An institution with the sophistication and reputation of Wake Forest Baptist demands reliability and stability from its communication platform. ZixCorp’s Email Encryption Service safeguards the email transmission of sensitive Protected Health Information, which is a daily occurrence within an organization the size of Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center.
Wake Forest Baptist management required a solution that was simple to administer and simple to deploy, yet of equal importance was transparency of the end-user experience for its entire community. Wake Forest Baptist did not want to burden its users and employees with additional security hurdles. The only way to accomplish this goal was to turn to ZixCorp. ZixCorp operates the ZixDirectory™, the largest community of encrypted email users in existence. Growing to more than 20 million members, the ZixDirectory contains some of the largest names in health care and already contains more than 450 of Wake Forest Baptist’s business partners. The result is secure communication that’s automatic and transparent for both senders and recipients. ZixCorp is the only email encryption vendor to deliver a highly-scalable email encryption service that embeds security in the infrastructure while remaining transparent and easy to use for individuals.
“ZixCorp delivers next generation email encryption that focuses on the recipient experience; we understand the need for embedded security that’s transparent to the user,” said Rick Spurr, Chief Executive Officer for ZixCorp. “The Wake Forest Baptist experience is a great example of the power of the ZixDirectory. The 450 Wake Forest business partners that are already part of our ZixDirectory enjoy secure email communication that doesn’t interrupt their daily routine.”

Sanders, Vice President for Information Services and Chief Information Officer at Wake Forest Baptist. “We were also impressed with ZixCorp's directory of users that included hundreds of our business partners.
