Businesses exchange emails and attachments with sensitive data daily. Email encryption ensures that only the intended recipient can see the content. Unencrypted emails can be exploited by hackers and cybercriminals in phishing attempts.
Who Can Read Protected Mail
Only those with the decryption key can read encrypted emails. The sender encrypts with the public key; the recipient decrypts with the private key. Email is a common attack vector, so most businesses use Microsoft Office 365 and other security tools.
Sensitive data theft via email undermines safe business communication. Email encryption protects this information. Advanced safety tools defend against threats and prevent data loss from network or server issues.
Eyes off Sensitive Information
Businesses often send ID numbers, bank details, card numbers, and financial terms over email. Unencrypted passwords risk identity theft. With usernames and passwords, attackers can send fake messages. Only intended recipients can read encrypted emails.
By installing an email security system, businesses can help employees distinguish genuine, legitimate senders from spam or phishing emails.
