History

In September 2009 DataMotion was placed in the visionary quadrant of the 2009 Gartner File Transfer Magic Quadrant[6].[7] Gartner] In April 2010 the company announced a reseller partnership with EasyLink Services. EasyLink resells DataMotion SecureMail and other document delivery solutions[8]. In March 2011 an agreement with Jamcracker Services Delivery Network was announced, offering DataMotion SecureMail through Jamcracker’s delivery network[9]. In April 2012 the company announced the second generation DataMotion Platform[10], making it available to systems integrators and solutions providers as well as enterprise end users[11]. This platform-as-a-service (PaaS) provides a secure data delivery hub that can be leveraged for unified data delivery. In October 2012 the company announced DataMotion Direct, a secure email service that enables healthcare industry organizations to integrate with the Direct Project. The Direct Project enables healthcare organizations and providers to comply with Meaningful Use Stage 2 data transfer requirements established by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS)[12]. DataMotion also began operations as a health information service provider (HISP) in October 2012. All products are available as on-premise, SaaS (Software-as-a-service) or hybrid solutions.

Patents

Mr. Janacek and Mr. Muchhala filed for a patent in May 2000 for developing a method for secure transmission of a message via a network where a recipient of the message need not be a party to the network or maintain an active address in the network, US patent # 6684348. The patent was granted in 2004[13]. This patent was the basis for the company’s first product, self-provisioning email encryption.

DataMotion was issued U.S. patent No. 6684348 for developing a method for secure transmission of messages where recipient accounts and inboxes are automatically created. This provides a familiar, convenient way to view and exchange sensitive data.

Products

The company first introduced SaaS-based email encryption in 1999[14]. An updated version of this product is still offered today as SecureMail Desktop. Several products have been added since that time. Other products sold include: SecureMail Gateway– an email encryption filter
SecureContact– inbound-initiated email encryption
Secure File Transfer– file delivery encryption
eForms– secure electronic form delivery
