How compatible is Email2?
The Secure Messaging Platform is compatible with existing email structures. If you are using Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft Exchange, Microsoft Office 365, Zimbra, or have a scanning process, archiving system, indexing system or any other perimeter defense in place, it works alongside the existing structure to provide additional security and privacy.
The only difference is that it bypasses SMTP and instead uses a secure HTTPS connection for exchanging secure messages, through the use of the Secure Messaging Platform (acting as a gateway server). That’s where the true value proposition resides: we don’t replace or interfere with anything. Everything you currently have in place still works the same, including PKI, if you are already using email encryption (using the Secure Messaging Platform will cause your email client to exchange the encrypted message over HTTPS instead of SMTP).
There are several advantages to this type of architecture, (e.g. accurate tracking, no size limit on file attachments, etc.), which cannot be addressed by simple email encryption. And of course, the HTTPS transfer protocol is just as secure as any email encryption available on the market.
