Description:

As with all of our cloud-based security solutions, McAfee SaaS Email Encryption offers enterprise-level performance without the complexity and cost associated with on-premise solutions. SaaS Email Encryption is an easy-to-activate and easy-to-manage solution for business users. Built on a foundation of trusted and proven standards-based encryption technologies, it eliminates the often difficult, time-consuming task of installing and managing an onsite solution. Flexible encryption options are beneficial to the sender, recipient, and IT administrator.

As an IT administrator, you can use the unified web-based McAfee SaaS Control Console to set, review, and customize privacy policies (policy-driven encryption), so that confidential content is automatically encrypted. You can also customize and enforce multiple policies for respective user groups, branch offices, and lines of businesses.

As a sender, simply compose your email and send it. The content is automatically scanned and encrypted if it matches the policy set by the administrator. This occurs transparently behind the scenes. You can also tag your email to be encrypted by simply adding “[encrypt]” to the subject line or within the message body.

As an email recipient, you can retrieve the message from the web-based message pick-up portal or download a secure message reader, which allows you to view the message directly through your email client. When you reply, the message will also be encrypted, providing you with bidirectional protection.
