MARKET UPDATE

Security remains a key focus for Tungsten Corporation

Unlike some of our competitors, we can reassure our customers and users that the security of the Tungsten Network, built on the strong compliance principles of OB10, has not been affected by the Heartbleed bug.

This widespread problem emphasises the importance of security and compliance to our customers and market. As such, we have decided to accelerate the termination of interoperability arrangements with networks that do not completely satisfy our compliance requirements. We first announced this policy on 25 March 2014 before Heartbleed was made public.

This measure reinforces our focus on delivering a secure network that protects our customers' data and enables them to meet their regulatory obligations.
