Seattle, WA – September 5, 2012 —TappIn, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of GlobalSCAPE, Inc. (NYSE MKT: GSB), a leading developer of secure information exchange solutions, announced today that the TappIn by Globalscape secure content mobility solution has been recognized as a finalist for the Golden Bridge Awards for the second consecutive year.

TappIn provides users with a single interface from which they can simply and securely access all of their important files, business or personal, via the device of their choosing, whether it resides on their business computer, their personal laptop, or in the cloud.

“Mobility is fundamentally changing the way we live our lives, enabling instant access to information at the tap of a screen,” said Chris Hopen, President of TappIn, Inc. “TappIn is committed to streamlining that access with secure solutions that enable users to tap into their content on demand, regardless of where it is stored. TappIn is the one place they can go for all their content without having to move, upload or store everything in one place.”
