Reliable message encryption & secure connections

Postini Encryption Manager addresses broad, real-world, secure messaging needs with two encryption services:

 

Connection Security

Offers comprehensive session-level protection with industry-standard, server-to-server transport layer security (TLS).
Postini integrates strong TLS encryption with policy-based management so IT staff has full command and control over which messages must be delivered via an encrypted connection.

Message Security

Offers contentlevel encryption to shield message content in cases where server-to-server security is not available or required.
This “secure and post” encryption option relies on proven Secure Socket Layer (SSL) Web browser technology, and can be deployed at a policy level and individually by end-users.

 

How Postini Encryption Manager Works

 

Connection Security automatically enforces TLS rules with partners with established encryption requirements, preventing a sending or receiving server from converting a message to clear text if it encounters a non-compliant server.

Email alerts automatically notify senders if encrypted messages cannot be delivered. Sensitive data is never sent over the Internet unless the path from gateway to gateway is encrypted.

Message Security requires no encryption technology between sender and recipient to communicate securely because the encryption is handled by Postini.

Based on policy-based rules or initiated by an end user request, a message is sent securely to Postini Encryption Manager to be encrypted.

Postini Encryption Manager posts the message to a secure Web portal, notifies the recipient of the encrypted message, and gives instructions on accessing the
secured message.

Once the secure Web portal authenticates the recipient, they are allowed to read and reply to the message.

IT staff can easily establish policies to encrypt all messages from a sender or a group of senders, or can encrypt all messages flagged confidential.

 

Product features & benefits

 

Automatically identify and encrypt email by sender and/or recipient to satisfy internal policies or external regulations.

Enables IT staff to create policies at the organization, suborganization or individual level.

Easy-To-Use:

Eliminates need for PKI certificate, keys, password management and dedicated secure networks such as Virtual Private Networks (VPNs).

Requires no additional hardware or software to install or maintain on desktops or email servers.

Provides visibility into sender patterns and aids in policy enforcement.

Provides encryption platform freedom: leverages ZixCorp technology today; OpenPGP, S/MIME, and other market standard encryption to be added in 2006.
