Comfidex Announces VoteFiler 1.5 – A Better Voting Solution for Government and Private Elections
Enhanced Flexibility and Features Expand Unique Electronic Voting Solution to Non-Government Organizations
New York, NY March 22, 2006
– Comfidex announced today significant enhancements to VoteFiler™ (http://www.votefiler.com),
its award-winning voting solution built on patented technology that
combines the time-tested security and reliability of paper ballots
with the speed and accuracy of electronic tabulation. In addition to
providing added security features and greater functionality for VoteFiler’s government election voting solution, VoteFiler 1.5 is
now optimized for use by virtually all mid- to large-size
organizations conducting elections, such as associations, unions,
universities and property management firms.
“While we remain focused on providing a better government voting
solution for the nation’s voters, the more we share VoteFiler and
its capabilities with private organizations the greater the interest
in refining the solution to serve their needs as well,” said Bill
Stratigos, president of Comfidex.
VoteFiler 1.5 provides organizations with a system that allows its
voters to securely create verifiable paper ballots on standard PC’s
and printers. Once a voter's unique, though anonymous, ballot is
created, s/he brings it to a polling station on election day where
an election official scans only its barcode (an encrypted ID
pointing to the database record of that ballot). This process allows
for electronic tabulation while maintaining a paper-based audit
trail, should the need arise for a recount or review.
Recently, the NAACP conducted its Pennsylvania State Conference
election using VoteFiler. The election, which included 39 candidates
vying to fill the full slate of 25 statewide positions, went off
without a hitch. In addition, VoteFiler is expected to be used at a
major university to run upcoming university-related elections.
“We’ve found that the same cost, reliability, speed and security issues VoteFiler addresses for government elections are similarly important in the private sector,” added Stratigos. “We’re looking forward to working with these organizations to help them realize the uniquely superior benefits VoteFiler provides.”

Pennsylvania State Conference of NAACP Branches Votes For VoteFiler™ By Comfidex
Unique New Voting Solution Successfully Used by the NAACP for the 71st Annual Pennsylvania State Conference Election
Harrisburg, Pa, November, 15, 2005 –
Comfidex Corp announced today that the Pennsylvania State Conference of the NAACP Branches recently conducted its State Conference election using VoteFiler™, a new, award-winning voting solution built on patented technology that combines the security and reliability of paper ballots with the speed and accuracy of electronic tabulation. The election, which included 39 candidates vying to fill the full slate of 25 statewide positions, went off without a hitch.
“This election process clearly surpassed anything we have done in the past,” said Mr. Thomas A. Smith, Jr., newly elected President of the Pennsylvania State Conference of NAACP Branches and Ms. Linda Renick, Chairperson Election Supervisory Committee. “We were absolutely impressed with the speed, accuracy and ease of use of the VoteFiler solution. We had results instantaneously, rather than the full day it usually takes, and the voting process was simple and straight-forward.”
VoteFiler uses creative design and barcode technology to securely create anonymous, though verifiable, paper ballots that are printed by voters and then scanned and tabulated by election officials. VoteFiler is designed for use in public and non-government elections.
“We appreciate the Pennsylvania State Conference of NAACP Branches’ vote of confidence and are very pleased with VoteFiler’s performance during their election,” said Bill Stratigos, President of Comfidex. “This election showed that VoteFiler is an effective voting solution for non-governmental organizations and is a strong indicator of VoteFiler’s viability for wide-scale use in public elections in the very near future.”

Introduces New Voting System That Combines the Benefits of Electronic
Voting with the Security of a Paper Trail
“VoteFiler™”
Uniquely Addresses Voting and Vote Tabulation Concerns Raised Following
the 2000 and 2004 U.S. Elections
Washington,
DC, April 5, 2005 [FOSE Booth #1439] – The last two U.S.
Presidential election cycles uncovered significant, systemic problems
plaguing the nation’s antiquated voting systems. This has led to loud
demands from public officials, citizens and the media for improved
voting technology and better vote tabulation methods. Despite this
significant outcry, surprisingly few realistic solutions have surfaced.
Today Comfidex
Corp., an established vendor in the electronic forms processing and
validation space, is addressing the issue with the introduction of
a new voting solution called “VoteFiler.” VoteFiler is a voting system
built on patented technology that combines the benefits of electronic
voting with the security and ability to audit that only comes from
a clear paper trail. Through creative design and the use of advanced
bar-code technology, VoteFiler allows individuals to securely create
anonymous, though verifiable, paper ballots that are then scanned
and tabulated on Election Day.
Comfidex
is unveiling VoteFiler today at a 3:00 PM press conference at FOSE
2005 at the Washington Convention Center in Washington, D.C.
“VoteFiler
uniquely addresses the procedural and technical voting issues that
have caused such frustration and concern in recent elections, and
it does so in an evolutionary, cost-effective manner,” said Bill Stratigos,
president and COO of Comfidex. “By using innovative design, off-the-shelf
hardware and our patented technology, VoteFiler is designed to complement
existing voting systems and provide an inexpensive and secure voting
process.”
VoteFiler’s key
attributes include:
-
Voter authentication and security – VoteFiler has the
ultimate back up. It creates a verifiable paper trail.
-
Evolutionary, transitional voting solution -- VoteFiler
is designed to initially work side-by-side with existing
voting systems.
-
Speed
– While voters who have used VoteFiler to create their ballots
will still have to go to the polls on Election Day, they
will not have to stand in long lines for traditional voting
machines. VoteFiler enables express lanes for voting.
-
Cost -- VoteFiler does not require any expensive, proprietary
voting machines. Any off-the-shelf hardware can be used.
Only a standard Internet browser is required.
-
Ease
of use – No hanging chads or confusing ballots. An easy
to navigate Web-based interface is available prior to Election
Day for use in your own home.
-
Voting
accuracy – VoteFiler provides voting accuracy and recount
capability, a much-simplified absentee voting option and
preserves voter anonymity.
|
“VoteFiler
is unique in its use of patented, inexpensive, off-the-shelf equipment
to support secure, anonymous and auditable paper-based voting,” said
Steve Weissman, President, Kinetic Information LLC. “What makes VoteFiler
truly interesting is that it takes nothing more to run than network-connectable
personal computers, is not at all disruptive and can be phased in
at whatever pace is desired, making it a ‘must see’ for anyone involved
in the procurement of electronic voting systems.”

Company
simplifies e-signature
by William
Matthews
January 22, 2002
Eighteen months since President Clinton signed a law making electronic
signatures as legally binding as their ink counterparts, the use of
electronic signatures remains rare.
Bill Stratigos, president of Comfidex Corp., thinks he knows why and
says he has a solution.
Digital signatures are too complicated and too expensive, Stratigos
contends. But offer people a simple, cheap way to submit signed documents
online, and they will use it.
That's what Stratigos says his company has done with FormFiler, a
product it introduced in December.
FormFiler creates an electronic form that the user - an applicant
for federal benefits, for example - fills out online. As the form
is being filled out, the FormFiler assigns it a "unique identifier,"
probably a bar code.
When the applicant is done, he prints out and signs the form; then
he faxes, e-mails (if the printed form is scanned, it can be e-mailed)
or mails it to the agency.
Meanwhile, at the agency, all of the information from the form is
stored in an electronic file tagged with the bar code. When the signature
arrives, it is matched with the electronic file.
The advantage to the agency is that an employee does not have to key
the information into the agency's system, cutting processing costs
from about 50 cents per form to as little as 6 cents, Stratigos claims.
The advantage to applicants is that they can transact business with
agencies from any computer through a relatively simple process without
having to have a digital signature.
Digital signatures cost at least $15 a year, require holders to give
personal information to the digital signature issuer and tie the user
to the computer the signatures are installed in, Stratigos said. "If
I'm John Q. Public and I want to do seven or eight transactions a
year with the government," digital signatures are too cumbersome.
"We felt the simpler the solution, the more likely it is to gain widespread
acceptance by the general public," he said. "This process is simple.
It's not rocket science, but it works."
However, Charles Kolodgy, an Internet security analyst for IDC, said
there are even simpler methods of sending signed documents via the
Internet without using digital signatures.
The Internal Revenue Service, for example, has made it possible to
file completed tax returns fully electronically. The IRS system uses
an encrypted password as a digital signature, and there is no need
for additional mail, e-mail or faxes, he said.

New
Study Prepared for Comfidex Confirms Increased Market Opportunities
Emerging for Mail Alternatives in Wake of Recent Events
Research
finds renewed interest in electronic transactions
New York City, January 14, 2002 - A new study prepared for
Comfidex Corp. by Strategy Analytics, the high technology consulting
and market research firm, reports that new markets are opening in
a number of industry sectors as a result of the recent biochemical
contamination of physical mail. The study forecasts that electronic
alternatives to traditional physical mailing methods may offer compelling
business benefits as well as increased security in the following industries:
banking, insurance, brokerage/financial services, government, education,
and health care.
"We concluded that many organizations in the public and private sectors
are re-examining work processes that depend on physical mail to complete
transactions," said Tom Elliott, vice president of North American
Consulting for Strategy Analytics. "Our study points out that the
Internet is ideal for such information-based transactions as loan
origination, insurance claims, tax filings, and license renewals.
But there aren't many organizations taking advantage of this for a
variety of reasons, perhaps chief of which is that there aren't many
products in the marketplace that allow them to do so easily."
Although using the Internet saves time, reduces data entry errors
and cuts costs, many organizations have been slow to embrace electronic
transactions because a so-called "wet-ink signature" - ink on paper
- and/or supporting documentation that cannot be sent electronically
is often required. Yet with an estimated 3.5 billion forms being generated
annually by just the six industry sectors listed above, many transactions
that could otherwise be handled entirely electronically are still
going through the mail. This is where Strategy Analytics sees potential
for new business solutions.
The study prepared in the latter part of December revisited data accumulated
by the research firm in the third quarter of 2000. That work was undertaken
to identify the market opportunity for FormFilerTM, a software
product from Comfidex that facilitates on-line transactions by allowing
the end-user to submit information over the Internet. According to
the newer study, "Since the possibility of biological contamination
of physical mail has entered our consciousness, there are signs that
organizations are even more interested in electronic alternatives
and this has caused us to revise revenue estimates upwards."
Those revisions include a 113 percent increase in total revenue projections
for the six industry sectors cited in the study for the year 2002.
According to Elliott, some of the evidence of concern that led to
this revision are:
-
The
US Patent and Trademark Office is encouraging customers to correspond
via fax and to use its Electronic Patent Filing System for new
applications.
-
A
regional chain of outpatient surgery centers in St. Louis has
started to require all its branches to submit documents like contracts
and leases electronically.
-
Saks,
Inc. has indicated that over 2,000 customers a week have visited
its Web site to apply for electronic billing.
-
The
Gartner Group, well-known consultants to corporate and government
users of information technology, has advised its clients that
"...the recent cases of anthrax sent by mail should lead enterprises
to accelerate their efforts to send documents electronically rather
than by post. Enterprises should use distributed-output-management
technology to deliver hard-copy documents electronically (via
fax or e-mail) to customers and partners."
"This
new study confirms the growing market opportunities for alternative
solutions to physical mail such as FormFiler," says Bill Stratigos,
president and chief operating officer of Comfidex. "We have long believed
that the economic benefits of electronic transaction management would
cause organizations to adopt products like FormFiler, and that was
borne out by the study in 2000. The events of the fall of 2001 have
raised the level of sensitivity among US organizations to the point
where such solutions will be much more attractive in the near term."
In recent years, a number of electronic signature formats have been
proposed as alternatives to wet-ink signatures, including smart cards,
biometric tokens like fingerprints or retinal scans, and digital certificates.
But as Elliott notes, "The big problem with most electronic signature
solutions is that they require too much from the end user: you have
to install digital certificate software or a fingerprint scanner or
a signature capture pad. Who wants to go to that much trouble for
something like applying for a home equity loan, that you probably
don't do all that often?"
In contrast, one of the advantages of the FormFiler solution is that
it requires an end-user to have only Internet access and Adobe Acrobat
Reader, a free and easily downloadable program that is useful for
many other applications besides FormFiler. The product also allows
information to be directly transported between business and end-user,
keeping the privacy of personal information preserved between client
and company. In light of current events, one of the most attractive
features of FormFiler is that completed transaction forms can be submitted
by fax, rather than by mail. This is obviously advantageous to the
sponsoring organization, because it reduces dependence on the mailroom,
which is increasingly an area of concern and perceived vulnerability.

Snail-Mail
Alternative Automates Data Capture
Unisys
is reselling a software package that lets
signature-intensive businesses set up Web-based forms
for capturing data and then obtaining signatures without
using traditional mail.
by Tony
Kontzer
January 9, 2002
With so many companies looking for alternatives to snail mail in the
wake of Sept. 11 and the anthrax threat, vendors have been flooding
the market with electronic alternatives. Now Unisys Corp. has begun
reselling one for companies that aren't ready to dive into the realm
of entirely digitized transactions. Unisys' offering is called FormFiler,
a product developed by Comfidex Corp., a small, New York E-business
software firm.
Targeted toward financial-services firms, insurance companies, government
agencies, and other industries that still depend on obtaining customers'
pen-on-paper signatures, it works like this: The end user logs on
to a company's Web site and fills out a Web-based data-collection
form. That data is then used to create a PDF file of the form to be
filed, marked with a unique identifier, and the PDF immediately is
delivered to the end user's browser so it can be printed, signed,
and faxed or scanned and E-mailed back. The unique identifier then
can be used to match that form with additional data and complete the
transaction. The result: greatly reduced data entry requirements for
the company, and no need for users to purchase software.
Tim Girone, director of business development and program management
for Unisys' global industries workflow and imaging program, says FormFiler
should enable Unisys customers to achieve a 90% reduction in the cost
of data entry and capture. Girone says Unisys has seen a lot of demand
for products that move mail-based transactions online since Sept.
11. The company has had a reseller agreement with Comfidex since early
last year, but has only made FormFiler a priority since demand heated
up after the attacks. It conducted a Webcast with sales teams last
month and turned them loose in the last couple of weeks. "The time
is here for this," says Girone.
Hurwitz Group analyst Pete Lindstrom says there's incremental value
in offering such an alternative for companies looking for a stopgap
measure. "This is great for folks who are still too hesitant," says
Lindstrom. He says the real value isn't so much in the ability to
use digital means to obtain written signatures, but rather in the
product's approach to automating the collection of data.

Comfidex
Delivers FormFiler 1.1 to Market
FormFiler lowers the cost of processing forms requiring wet-ink
signatures and provides a secure means of doing business, despite
temporary mail service interruptions
New York City, December 11, 2001 - Each year, U.S. and international
businesses spend between $30-$40 billion handling and processing tens
of billions of forms that require a wet-ink signature. In light of
recent events, businesses are re-evaluating their contingency plans
and looking for cost-effective ways to complete transactions in the
event that normal delivery services, such as the U.S. Mail, are unexpectedly
disrupted.
To help organizations use the Internet to complete forms-based business
transactions, Comfidex Corp. today announced the availability of FormFilerTM
1.1. FormFiler is a patented, web-based process for handling any electronic
form that requires a wet-ink signature for business, legal, regulatory
or compliance reasons. Using FormFiler 1.1, organizations can build
e-forms more quickly than before and rapidly deploy the system in
a matter of a few days to a few weeks, depending on the number and
complexity of applications desired.
How FormFiler works
FormFiler is an ideal solution for paper-intensive organizations,
such as insurance companies and banks, and the individuals they serve.
Rather than having end users complete and submit hard-copy forms,
which require manual data entry on the part of the business, FormFiler
uses Internet-based forms to capture customer data and submit it to
the organization's web server. The web server then generates a unique
identifier and inserts that identifier along with the captured data
into a PDF form that is sent back to the end user's PC. The end user
then prints, signs, and faxes/mails (or scans and e-mails) the form
to the business. Upon receipt of the form, the processor can use the
unique identifier (typically a standard bar code) to automatically
retrieve the data that the customer submitted via the Internet and
use it to complete the transaction.
FormFiler offers tangible business benefits
Both high- and low-volume document management businesses can benefit
from FormFiler because it eliminates the need for data-entry personnel
to manually re-key data that customers have already submitted online.
By minimizing or eliminating the traditional manual process, businesses
can realize a per-form cost savings of approximately 40-50 cents of
direct labor costs in the United States and 25-35 cents offshore.
Moreover, even in a low-volume pilot environment, which requires minimal
up-front investment on the part of the business, the per-form cost
of using FormFiler is less than the cost of a postage stamp. In addition
to tangible cost savings, using FormFiler makes it possible for what
were previously multi-day transactions to be completed in the same
day.
Customers of organizations that use FormFiler can benefit as well.
To take advantage of the system, all they need is Internet access,
a browser, and Adobe Acrobat Reader, which they can download free
at http://www.adobe.com.
Using FormFiler, end users can easily obtain and complete Internet-based
e-forms, submit their information in a matter of minutes, and then
print, sign, and send back the signed form by their preferred method
to the company with which they wish to conduct business.
"FormFiler helps organizations accelerate their e-business strategies.
Based on market research, our solution will most benefit the health
care, brokerage/financial services, government, insurance, banking,
and education sectors," said Bill Stratigos, president and chief operating
officer of Comfidex. "This is a solution with tremendous ROI potential,
and in light of recent events, it provides organizations with a means
to continue doing business as usual, even if normal mail delivery
services are temporarily suspended."
FormFiler available through Unisys
In May, Comfidex signed a premier reseller agreement with Unisys Corporation.
The agreement allows Unisys to resell FormFiler 1.1 through its e-Workflow
& Imaging practice and provide related systems integration services.
"Organizations that depend on signed documents to complete transactions
with their customers need cost-effective alternatives to normal delivery
services, and we believe that is exactly what FormFiler provides,"
said Gary Cawthorne, vice president and general manager of North America
Financial Services for Unisys. "Our e-Workflow & Imaging business
is committed to delivering solutions with best-of-breed applications,
such as FormFiler, to high-volume document management businesses in
key vertical industries such as banking, insurance, and brokerage."

Snail Mail: Unisys Enhances Document Web Workflow Solution to Speed
Process Transactions Requiring Signatures
Web-based Unisys application integrates with Comfidex FormFiler
to create electronic delivery alternative to paper-based mail
BLUE BELL, Pa., December 10, 2001 - Critical business transactions
need fast, secure alternative methods to traditional paper-based mail
delivery. Unisys has enhanced its e-@ction Workflow & Imaging
solution portfolio with FormFiler version 1.1 which gives businesses
a means of inexpensively and quickly completing transactions electronically.
Unisys Workflow & Imaging solutions target the high-volume production
workflow and document management market that is key to industries
such as banking, insurance and government. The addition of the FormFiler
solution assists these paper-intensive businesses by minimizing or
eliminating the need for handling paper forms submission within the
enterprise, while at the same time lowering processing costs and freeing
up valuable resources.
"By incorporating the Comfidex-patented FormFiler technology with
our existing suite of Unisys e-@ction Workflow & Imaging products
and professional services, we provide our customers with solutions
that minimize reliance on traditional mail delivery services," said
Robert West, vice president and managing principal, Global e-@ction
Workflow & Imaging program for Unisys. "This enables transactions
to be processed faster and safer, while greatly reducing the costs
and human effort involved with various aspects of data collection,
data entry, and data integrity."
Using a patented unique identifier process at the time of e-form submission,
FormFiler enables companies to associate Internet-submitted data with
hardcopy documents. End users simply fill out and submit e-forms that
require a wet-ink signature via the Internet. Documents can be printed
directly by the end user, who can then fax (or scan and e-mail) them
directly to the business client. When the document is received, FormFiler
automatically matches it with the computer-readable data, eliminating
the need for manual entry.
Even at low volumes, the cost per transaction to a U.S.-based firm
is less than the cost of a postage stamp. By minimizing or eliminating
the manual process, businesses can realize a cost savings of approximately
40 to 50 cents of direct labor costs in the U.S. and 25 to 35 cents
offshore per form.
