New RPost Cloud Partner Program Provides Enhanced Integration and Patent Protection

New integrated web console and enforcement of 36 patents address customer needs while assuring partner revenues

LOS ANGELES, CA — May 17th, 2012 – RPost, the inventor of Registered Email services, today announced a new RPost Cloud Partner Program which provides a web-based console to configure services, and aggressive enforcement of 36 patents covering email legal delivery proof, encryption, e-signature, and large file transfer to assure partner revenues. Under the direction of Wei Lin, a new Vice President of Alliances, the move enables partners to better serve their customers, while protecting them from competitors who would infringe on their protected revenue streams.

Partners can now build into their processes the ability to provision customers for access to RPost services (set up trials, new users, configure some settings, and reporting) using an RPost provided web console (one for partner admin, one for partner sales) or use an RPost API to add this to their existing administration panels. This enhances partners’ ability to manage customer needs in real time, and tightly integrate RPost services into customer processes.

“We are committed to helping RPost partners win new business with protected services that are the best in the marketplace,” said RPost CEO Zafar Khan. “To solidify this commitment, we are pleased to welcome Wei Lin to the RPost team as Vice President of Alliances. Lin has been in the electronic messaging business for more than 15 years, most recently as chief intellectual property officer of McAfee. The US Patent Office re-examined all 89 claims of a main RPost patent and concluded that they are novel, patentable, and valid. RPost is vigorously enforcing these patent rights to assure its partners that their RPost offerings will maintain their competitive edge.”

In defense of partner revenues in 2011, RPost brought Federal patent infringement suits in California, Texas, and Virginia against Swiss Post, Canada Post, ZixCorp, Docusign, Adobe Echosign, RightSignature, Farmers Insurance, and others.

RPost has transformed its patented processing networks into an open platform, so developers can route high value outbound messages to the RPost Cloud for special processing without the need for specialized hardware or software. Their high revenue share and ease of market entry are now vigorously protected via RPost’s IP portfolio.

The RPost Cloud acts as an infrastructure extension to developers’ own software platforms to add legally valid proof and non-repudiation, security and compliance, electronic signature and authentication, and collaboration and deliverability services. The RPost Cloud Partner Program is designed for IT consultants, technology resellers, software developers, systems integrators, and business management software platforms.
