To coincide with IDG's annual MacWorld convention in San Francisco, CA, Accellion, Inc., an award-winning provider of on-demand secure file transfer appliance and data management solutions, announced the support of its Courier File Transfer Appliance (FTA) for Mac OS X users.

An award-winning file transfer appliance, Accellion's Courier FTA supports browsers such as Firefox, Safari, Netscape Communicator, and Internet Explorer for Mac OS X to provide users with an intuitive interface, end-to-end file security, and policy-based file lifecycle management.

Accellion's Courier FTA has been specifically designed to provide Mac users with the highest level of ease-of-use, and can be used in multi-site enterprise environments.

"We are pleased to announce the support of these browsers for the Mac OS X operating system during the 2006 MacWorld Convention," said Yorgen Edholm, CEO and President of Accellion, Inc.
