Hello,

My name is Patrick Duemling.  I am U.S. Navy veteran and a Senior Software Engineer with over 20 years of experience in software development projects across a range of industries, married 29 years to my beautiful wife Ann-Marie and we have raised seven wonderful children.

Three years ago, I encountered a private healthcare service practitioner who has trouble managing secure communication among her clients.  Current solutions do not work for her, a seasoned self-employed registered nurse and treatment facility director.  Some attorneys have told me current solutions are a liability.  If they see links in emails to go login to another system just to access secure email, they just ignore it.

Their problems were the very catalyst for architecting this business solution you are about to review.

There is an opportunity to fill a large market gap in end-to-end digital communication security…

 

Mainstream service providers such as Gmail, Outlook, MS Exchange, Yahoo, and Apple do not enforce true end-to-end security. Once email leaves their mail servers, it is unprotected.

 

Emails sent with third-party provider’s encryption schemes only work in their systems. Recipients receive emails with hyperlinks or passwords/passphrases and have to log into their systems.  This is not only insecure and inconvenient it is also a liability (ask any attorney). No secure way to send out passwords. No one wants to use passwords to unlock email messages. No one should have to create an email account with a secure email service provider to access secure messages.

 

Professionals need an easy way to send secure digital communication transparently, seamlessly integrated into their existing service providers, where technical complexities are concealed and inconveniences are eliminated.


Core Business
Our software product is designed to defeat vulnerabilities in communication transportation and storage. It safeguards digital content, ensures user privacy, eliminates inconveniences, and provides secure end-to-end data protection. We have also eliminated traditional key-exchange and public/private server storage strategies. 

·         We have created an easy way to send digital communication with privacy, security, and transparency while seamlessly integrating into existing service providers.  We maintain the user’s privacy by encrypting metadata, message content, file attachments, and inline media.
 

·         Our native Windows email client prototype transparently encrypts on the device before transport and transparently decrypts messages and attachments upon arrival at the device.  We have proven this works successfully on the top four web-based email service providers – Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo, and Apple.

 

·         We have concealed technical complexities to preserve a modern, familiar user interface without minimizing or diluting security, without jeopardizing encryption strength, and without hampering the integrity of the digital content. 
 

·         We have eliminated inconveniences usually found in our competitor’s products including embedded hyperlinks and passwords.  NO links. NO passwords. NO credentials.

·         Global email account market – 2.2B users $160B.

·         Gmail email market only – 1B users $72B.

·         Total addressable market – 250 million users (US) $18B.

·         Total targeted market – 15.7 million professionals (US) $1.13B.

·         Goal is to gain 40% targeted market share, ~6 million users (US) – $400-500 million in 5-7 years.

 

We are a cybersecurity software company providing secure digital communication solutions implemented over existing service providers - transparently and seamlessly - using a patent-pending, fail-safe, dynamically-generated, serverless encryption key management system, standard protocols and modern cryptographic algorithms.  Our business operates on integrity without compromise focused on building absolute trust with our customers by delivering superior software security solutions.

 

Our software prototype has been developed over the past year, estimated to be 90% complete for its initial production release.  Remaining development work includes a system configuration screen, user profile screen, service provider connections, mechanism for importing contacts, organizing storage directories, search feature, contact support/user experience feedback feature, and final pre-production unit testing.  Additional development work potentially includes SMS security verification, image steganography, reminders, scheduling, digital rights management, voice print/identification, face print/identification, and templates.

 

Our software product is designed to defeat vulnerabilities in communication transportation and storage, safeguard digital content, ensure user privacy, eliminate inconveniences, and provide independently secure end-to-end data protection.  This is accomplished by using an AES-256 bit encryption algorithm combined with additional algorithms to achieve rock-solid durability.  The cryptography is independently and professionally audited to verify our data protection blueprint is cryptographically-sound and resilient against any intrusion to ensure zero security vulnerabilities and zero data compromise.

 

Phase 1: Finish native Windows prototype, Microsoft Outlook plug-in, migrate code base to Mac OS X

Phase 2: Enterprise native cross-platform version for Windows, Mac, Linux, iOS, and Android

Phase 3: REST API for organizations to implement SecureComm encryption

Phase 4: Open API Integrations (Slack, Monday and many other vendors have open API collaboration but no security assurance)

Phase 5: Business Expansion into secondary products, e.g. business partnership with Rackspace to resell email, cloud services, and similar offerings.

The software application is designed to defeat known vulnerabilities in communication transportation and storage, safeguarding digital content, ensuring user privacy, eliminating commonly experienced inconveniences, and providing true end-to-end data exchange protection.  This is accomplished by using AES-256 bit encryption algorithm and other algorithms combined in an independently and professionally audited blueprint validated for its cryptographically-secure data protection.

 

The software prototype has been developed over the past year, estimated to be 90% complete for its initial production release.  Remaining development work includes a system configuration screen, user profile screen, service provider connections, mechanism for importing contacts, organizing storage directories, search feature, contact support/user experience feedback feature, and final pre-production unit testing.

 

SecureComm Lab, LLC is uniquely qualified to succeed due to the following reasons:

 

·         Products and/or Services: Our Products and/or Services are superior to our competitors because: unlike our competitors who can only guarantee secure end-to-end digital communication security within their own proprietary ecosystems of software, servers, and cryptographic keys, our product encrypts data at the device level before transmission to a service provider and the message is encrypted until received by the intended recipient and decrypted by the destination service provider - regardless of which service providers are being used to transmit and receive the digital communication.

 

·         Operational Systems: We have developed systems that enable us to provide high quality products/services at a lower cost. These systems include: a native software application designed to connect to any email service provider and the service architecture to support secure, fast, and inexpensive cryptographic key management.

 

·         Intellectual Property (IP): We have Intellectual Property that gives us an advantage over our competitors. Our IP includes: a fail-safe key exchange management system designed to have fail-over protection at critical inbound and outbound data execution steps in the transmission of digital communication.

 

·         Successes achieved to date: We have already accomplished the following which positions us for future success: a provisional patent on our intellectual property to secure our methodology for data transmission and exchange of cryptographic keys. Provisional patent filed at USPTO offices on May 21st, 2020 by The Rapacke Law Group, P.A., 1840 N. Pine Island Road, Plantation, Florida 33322.
