History

[edit]

Founded in 2000, Echoworx is headed by its CEO and president Michael Ginsberg, formerly the CEO of CertaPay, an email money transfer technology company.[1]

In December 2005, AT&T was one of the first telecommunications companies in the United States to white-label and provide Echoworx encryption services to its subscribers.[2]

British Telecom launched BT Secure Mail and Encrypted Message Exchange (BT EMX) based on public key infrastructure (PKI) in October 2007.[3]

Apptix is an application service provider (ASP) technology company providing hosted business services (or software as a service) for small and medium-sized businesses. It provided Apptix Secure Mail powered by Echoworx as part of its Hosted Email Security Services portfolio. It launched the service in April 2010.[citation needed]

Hostway, an infrastructure-as-a-service provider, partnered with Echoworx to provide encryption services in 2011.[4]

In January 2025, Echoworx announced a partnership with SwissSign to deliver an automated S/MIME-based email-security solution for organizations in the DACH region.[5] The collaboration integrates SwissSign certificates into Echoworx's encryption platform, streamlining certificate management and supporting compliance with regional data-protection requirements.[5]

The company's original priority was the small business market, but this has evolved to the enterprise and corporate market.
