Features and Advantages

Rapid Deployment

Zero-Touch S/MIME issuance and deployment without manual intervention. The automatic certificate issuance and deployment can greatly reduce the cost of issuing and using S/MIME certificates, and reduce error rate as well.

Compatible with Multiple CAs

Works seamlessly with DigiCert, Sectigo, Entrust, and NicSRS private CA.

Private Key Backup

Supports cloud and local escrow backup of S/MIME certificates which can be recovered in case of system reinstalling or employee losing the key to avoid situations where encrypted emails cannot be viewed.

Imperceptible Encryption

Provides a powerful and automatic platform for public key exchanging. Once the email user submits the public key, all employees in the enterprise can automatically obtain it for encryption. The system can automatically intercept emails without the recipient's public key, and send them automatically after the recipient submits the public key.

Encryption Based on Domains Between Enterprises

Supports enterprise-level S/MIME keys setup between enterprises, so that two enterprises can send encrypted emails to one another without public key exchanging between employees.

Compliance: Email Content Scanning

Emails will be decrypted temporarily by the scanning gateway, and then be encrypted and sent after they are scanned and approved.

No. The email encryption gateway is compatible with existing email security gateways. The encryption gateway will decrypt the email, send it to the email security gateway for content scanning and then re-encrypt it and send it out again. Any of the current mainstream email security gateways can be integrated with the email encryption gateway. You can contact our customer service for more info.

QIf I want to use public CA certificates, which brands of S/MIME can be automatically connected?

A

At present, we are compatible with the S/MIME of Sectigo, DigiCert, and Entrust, and S/MIME certificates can be issued according to needs. In addition, we also support S/MIME certificates signed by private CAs. You are also welcome to use NicSRS private CA system. If you are using a third-party private CA, please contact customer service to find out whether it is supported, or customization workload.

QWhen sending emails, if the recipient's public key is not available, what will the system do?

A

Our system is designed so that the sender doesn't need to understand the technology behind when using the encryption function. The email will be intercepted at the gateway, and the encrypted gateway will automatically send an email to the recipient, requesting him/her to submit the public key or view the email on the encrypted gateway.
