Real World Solutions from People in the Trenches Featuring Zix Corporation and Bank Iowa

Bank Iowa is a group of independent banks with 24 locations in 21 communities across the state. Each Bank Iowa offers the services of a large financial institution, but operates as a community bank in which decisions are made locally. The Bank Iowa locations are affiliates of Bank Iowa Corporation, a privately owned bank holding company headquartered in West Des Moines, Iowa, with combined assets of $1 billion USD. It was announced last week that Bank Iowa, has replaced its current email encryption solution with Zix Corporation’s Email Encryption Service.

“ZixCorp’s reputation as a leading hosted encryption service in the banking industry made our decision easy,” notes Jerry Warrick, operations/technology director at Bank Iowa. “ZixCorp’s solution is superior in every way to our previous technology. ZixDirectory is the de facto email security service for banking, which gave us the practical advantages of instant and seamless key exchange within our community of users and with our regulators. The fact that ZixCorp’s offering is hosted is a benefit for us.”
