VirnetX Reports Its Zero Trust Technology Implemented By Neurofeedback Co., IASIS Technologies, No Terms Disclosed

Asgard's Zero-Trust EverSafe Backup and Disaster Recovery Service

ZEPHYR COVE, Nev., Jan. 18, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- VirnetX(tm) Holding Corporation (NYSE: VHC), an Internet security software and technology company, announced today that IASIS Technologies International ("IASIS"), a global leader in healing through neurofeedback technology, announced the implementation of Asgard's Zero-Trust EverSafe Backup and Disaster Recovery solution built on VirnetX's encrypted Zero Trust Networking Technology to support the critical nature of IASIS' operations and protect the electronic protected health information of its clients.

VirnetX's Zero Trust Networking Technology with EverSafe protects data backups, data in transit, and data at rest on private secure domains, separate and invisible from the public Internet, therefore ensuring data integrity and availability.

Ransomware is one of the biggest threats to health care technology organizations with 34% being hit with ransomware in 2021. Importantly, over 30% of the data ransomed in these widespread health care attacks was never restored after the ransom was paid, making backup data protection of paramount importance. Secure backup and recovery capabilities are the last line of defense against ransomware. Additionally, zero trust security is now recommended by the Federal Government as a critical component of any security strategy with 76% of organizations in the process of implementing zero trust security.

"IASIS is currently in year three of a four year federally funded double blind study with UC San Diego and the Veterans Administration for m-TBI and PTSD treatment of our military personnel. Because of the proprietary nature of the IASIS technology, federal agency funding, and the significant data our technology generates, only the strongest form of data recovery and zero trust protection would meet the standards IASIS has brought to the field of mental health treatment. This is why we chose Asgard's Zero Trust EverSafe Disaster Recovery Services for our company," said IASIS Co-founder Barry Bruder.

"VirnetX Zero Trust Networking Technology enables EverSafe to improve upon Veeam Software's best in class backup and recovery platform with unparalleled levels of zero trust security delivering the most secure data protection available anywhere to our clients. We are singularly focused on our client's uptime availability and EverSafe with Virnetx Zero Trust Networking Technology achieves that," said Asgard Chief Executive Officer Brian Waltermire.
