Cipherloc Reports Third Quarter Results, Advances Partnership Activities

ARLINGTON, VA / ACCESSWIRE / August 14, 2020 / Cipherloc Corporation (OTCQB:CLOK) (the "Company"), a developer of advanced encryption technology, announced financial and corporate results for the third quarter ended June 30, 2020.

"We continued to advance our strategic plan in the second quarter through an almost 47% reduction of operating expenses and development of our partnership initiatives," said Ryan Polk, Chief Financial Officer. "We anticipate further reductions in operating expenses during the September quarter of 2020, providing adequate financial resources for our revenue development efforts over the next twelve months."

Milton Mattox, the Chief Operating Officer, added, "We continue to make exciting progress with multiple technology partnerships and potential sales relationships through engineering and testing of our polymorphic encryption capabilities in a number applications. For example, we recently announced our progress with Arnouse Digital Devices, Corp (ADDC) pairing Cipherloc's data-in-motion encryption with ADDC's BioDigitalPC line of products in order to offload encryption processing and improve network performance. We are engaged in a number of additional projects, which we look forward to announcing as we achieve specific milestones."
