Secure Channels Inc. Throws Down the Gauntlet With Their Hacker Humbling Technologies Offering a $50K Prize at RSA Conference 2015

IRVINE, CA–(Marketwired – Apr 19, 2015) – Secure Channels Inc., the Technology Innovators™, today announced a challenge to any hacker attending the RSA Conference 2015 offering to pay $50,000 to anyone who can break their FIPS 142-20 encrypted file. Hacker Humbling technologies is a technological innovation created by Secure Channels to prevent hacker’s use of private sensitive data that has been otherwise breached from the perimeter or from the inside the network perimeter.

At Black Hat 2014, 155 hackers entered a contest to beat Secure Channels and none were able to do so despite aggressive attempts to crack the super enciphered encrypted file. Hackers attending the RSA 2015 Conference wishing to participate in the contest must pick up the USB drive at the Secure Channels booth, the QR code on the drive will take them to a page to register and agree to the contest terms and conditions. Secure Channels’ booth is in the OATH Pavilion – Booth #915. The first hacker to beat Secure Channels’ encryption will receive a $50,000 payment.

“Of course we believe that any security technology is ultimately hackable with the right equipment and enough time,” said Richard Blech, CEO, of Secure Channels. “I cannot speak for others, but with Secure Channels we have done the math. It would take a super computer running 19 quadrillion calculations per second, at 30 times the age of the Universe to break the key set, using the Secure Channels patented encryption process using traditional methods.”

Secure Channels has received several industry awards in a short time including a 2015 Data Center Insights Summit top award, being named one of 10 Security Start-Ups to Watch in 2015 by Network World, a 2015 MVP Award from Computer Technology Review, and a 2015 Govies Award from Security Products and Security Today for best encryption.

“Our technology is developed to combat the onslaught and proliferation of breaches,” added Blech. “Hackers are engaging in massive offensive cyber warfare against our digital assets.”
