To send a message securely, users simply click the "Send Secure" button that the Sigaba Plug-In adds to the email interface, and the message is encrypted immediately. Incoming messages can be set to decrypt automatically or at desired intervals.

New Sigaba Secure Paging Application

With release 6.0, Sigaba introduces to the healthcare market the capability of Secure Paging.  This breakthrough in secure messaging technology is of paramount importance to doctors, nurses, hospitals and healthcare providers who cannot safely operate mobile telephones and PDA’s in proximity to medical equipment in operating rooms and intensive care units because of the electromagnetic interference caused by these devices, but can safely carry pagers.  With Sigaba Secure Paging, healthcare workers can now securely receive significantly larger amounts of critical protected healthcare information (PHI) from their email system to their paging devices thus enabling a seamless and user friendly transfer of encrypted information.

“We see a burgeoning demand for this secure email-to-pager capability,” said Lyall Vanatta, SVP of Marketing at Sigaba.  “Sigaba takes great pride in being able to offer new technology that provides for the secure transmission of patient information to emergency room personnel thus allowing doctors and nurses the ability to receive information much quicker in an emergency situation and ultimately save more lives.”
