Communique Laboratory Inc. (the 'Company') (ONE:TSX-V) is pleased to report that the Company has made significant developments in the First Quarter and is moving forward on the commercialization of its new IronCAP X cybersecurity product for email/file encryption, which product will be launched on April 23, 2020 at the Company's upcoming annual shareholders meeting.

The Company has plans for wider commercialization with the development team continuing work on the IronCAP family of encryption products with applications for credit cards, VPNs and the Internet. Andrew Cheung, 01 Communique CEO, stated, 'I am pleased that we are on-target to launch our new IronCAP X email encryption product on April 23rd. Our team has worked very hard to develop a product that numerous industry experts have endorsed to be the most advanced and secure quantum-safe cryptographic system existing today. IronCAP proved to be un-hackable after we issued an open, world-wide challenge last year to hackers to crack its quantum-safe encryption, and over 500 hackers from various countries were unable to do so. I invite all interested parties to come to the IronCAP X demo on April 23rd to see our new product.'

About IronCAP and IronCAP X:

IronCAP is at the forefront of the cyber security market and is designed to protect our customers from cyberattacks. IronCAP's patent-pending cryptographic system is designed to protect users and enterprises against the ever-evolving illegitimate and malicious means of gaining access to their data today as well as in the future with the introduction of powerful quantum computers. Based on improved Goppa code-based encryption it is designed to be faster and more secure than current standards. It operates on conventional computer systems so users are protected today while being secure enough to safeguard against future attacks from the world of quantum computers. An IronCAP API is available which allows vendors of a wide variety of vertical applications to easily transform their products to ensure their customers are safe from cyber-attacks today and from quantum computers in the future. IronCAP X, a new cybersecurity product for email/file encryption, incorporates our patent-pending technology and is planned for commercial release around Q1 2020. The new product has two major differentiations from what is in the market today. Firstly, many offerings in today's market store users secured emails on email-servers for recipients to read, making email-servers a central target of cyber-attack. Our new product, on the other hand, delivers each encrypted message end-to-end to the recipients such that only the intended recipients can decrypt and read the message. Consumer's individual messages are protected, eliminating the hackers' incentive to attack email servers of email providers. Secondly, powered by our patent-pending IronCAP technology, we believe our new product will be the world's first quantum-safe end-to-end email encryption system; secured against cyberattacks from today's systems and from quantum computers in the future. Consumers and businesses using our new products will have tomorrow's cybersecurity today.
