CentrixSECURE™ Provides NBA with a Secure Alternative to Email
LINCOLN, NE, June 27, 2007 – Centrix Solutions Inc., a provider of risk management and workforce
optimization products to financial service companies, today announced the implementation of its
CentrixSECURE™ messaging product at the Nebraska Bankers Association (NBA).
The innovative secure communication solution gives the NBA a means of electronically exchanging sensitive
data with business partners and member banks in a simple, efficient manner requiring no special technical
considerations or software installation for end users.
The NBA selected CentrixSECURE™ to provide employees with a secure medium to electronically exchange
information, while also enabling external authorized users to communicate inbound with NBA personnel.
Through its subsidiary, the Nebraska Bankers Insurance and Services Co., the NBA offers many services
to member banks that involve sensitive data. “Much of the information we routinely exchange with
insurance carriers and plan participants cannot go through normal email channels,” said Sean Humphrey,
vice president of information technology at the NBA. “We moved to the CentrixSECURE™ system because
of its ease of use for end users and the audit controls for administrators. We also like what Centrix
has to offer in terms of responsive customer service. Centrix stands apart from others because of the
company’s high level of customer service and quality products.”
CentrixSECURE™ is a browser-based solution designed to operate much like traditional email, however,
in a much more secure manner. All messages and attachments are transferred via a Secure Socket Layer
(SSL) protocol, ensuring that only the sender and authorized recipient have access to the message and
attachments. The system complements compliance efforts relative to data privacy regulations such as the
Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act and other information protection laws. CentrixSECURE™ also provides a full audit
report of all activity, enabling administrators to easily see who has opened each message and when those
messages were viewed. The system is “branded” to the corporate identity of the organization and can
optionally be integrated with a website to provide a secure, two-way communication channel for customer
service inquiries. More information and a product demo can be found at www.centrixsolutions.com.
