IronClad Encryption Corporation announced it has entered into an agreement with Charter Trading Corporation (“Charter”) enabling Charter to deploy IronClad’s ICEmicro to secure Charter’s cyber transmissions from its Texas headquarters to its operations in Latin America. This deployment of ICEmicro within Charter’s system is a critical part of Charter’s process to achieve compliance with the security controls in National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Special Publication 800-171. Not only will it protect sensitive and proprietary information, but provide critical feedback on the ICEmicro software under real-world operating conditions. Under this agreement, Charter will pay IronClad on a monthly basis for the use of its software and associated technical support.
