This culled from comp.security.firewalls. I've edited out the blathering ad copy and just left the "technical details". Sounds like POTP Jr. to me; I'm certainly not interested in the "buy our company" schtick. -- Wink Wichita Falls, Texas February 16, 1996 For immediate Release: Internet.Privacy.Guaranteed [Long blathering sales prose elided.] If You Break our System, You've Bought our Company! Internet.Privacy.Guaranteed, IPG, today announced a new product line that guarantees privacy for 2, or privacy networks of 20,000 or more people on Internet. We back up our Guarantee with the Corporate motto, 'If You Break our System, You Have Bought our Company.' IPG Guarantees Absolute Privacy on Internet. Using the trademark CRE transform, the IPG PCX Nvelopes system translates any intelligible digitized information into utterly random gibberish. Only one other user, or more in certain instances where there is a need to know, will have the Nvelopener required to transform the random gibberish back into intelligible digitized information. CRE Transforms, trademark IPG, are the only acknowledged unbreakable method of so transforming digitized information. There are no passwords, encryption keys, or anything like that to conjure up, remember, and perhaps forget. PCX Nvelopes usage is automatic, similar to PKZIP and PKUNZIP. Easy to install, use, add to, and administer. It is Unbreakable If an individual, or any group of individuals, break the IPG Privacy System, IPG will sell them the company for $1.00, and even give them the dollar to buy it with. If you think you can, just try and you find out that it is impossible. There may be rumors that someone has broken the system, but that is not possible, it will never happen. Don't Waste your time ! How dare IPG have the unmitigated gall? When you are certain, then you are certain, and IPG is certain! Others dare not make such a brazen boast because they cannot possibly back it up, but IPG most certainly can. Every informed expert of the technology will confirm, without reservation, that the IPG system is not breakable, as many already have! There, we have thrown down that gauntlet, dare you pick it up? CRE Transforms The system uses CRE transforms, metaphorically called Nvelopes, to translate any meaningful digitized information into absolutely random gibberish. In order to convert that random gibberish back into intelligible usable form, a Nvelopener is required, and only the rightful recipient(s) has the required Nvelopener. Nvelopes and Nvelopeners Every Nvelope and Nvelopener pair is absolutely and totally unique - they bear no resemblance whatsoever to any other Nvelope - Nvelopener pair in existence, anywhere ay anytime. Every time a user wants to transmit information to another user, they utilize a new unique Nvelope. No Passwords or Keys or the Like As an added bonus, there are NO MESSY, INTRUSIVE PASSWORDS or ENCRYPTION KEYS to conjure up, remember, fool around with, and perhaps forget. None of that sort of thing to bother with at all. Nothing to get in your way of using the system. Transforms Internet from Least Private to Most Private The System, called PCX Nvelopes, for Private Communications eXchange, transforms Internet from being the least private, utterly without any privacy at all, system for conducting communications, into the most private system possible, an elegant fast system that unequivocally insures privacy. Privacy Network PCX Nvelopes serves 2 individuals who want to communicate with each other in private, as it serves equally well a corporate organization, or any other organization, privacy network, of 9 or 90,000 or more people, who want to keep customer, trade secret, strategy and plans, financial, and other confidential information privy to those with the need to know. For both in house and external usage. Guaranteed Easy to Install, Use and Upgrade Potential users beset by a paranoia that the PCX Nvelopes system must be complex, difficult to configure, laborious to install, administratively burdensome, arduous to upgrade and add users, are in for a computer cultural shock. As you will find, PCX is the exact antithesis of all of those things. It is so simple to install, use, upgrade and add users to, that it will completely blow your mind away. There is nothing to do, installation and adding users are totally load and go operations - if you can operate a computer, you can install and use PCX Nvelopes within minutes, it is absolutely duck soup to any computer literate, even marginal ones. Prices Prices are $19.96, including shipping and handling, for a full blown 12 user Demonstration system, unconditional moneyback guarantee and may be applied to your first order - the Demo system can be used by 2 people, or all the way up to 12 users in a privacy network. For $39.95, two users can set up a two user privacy system with 500 Nvelopes. A fully operational integrated multi-user system costs approximately $140.00 per user, ready to load and go, with thousands, or millions of Nvelopes and Nvelopeners. IPG also offers full turnkey leases at $15.00 per user, per network, per month, which includes all software, upgrades, administration, and unlimited Nvelopes and Nvelopeners.
