For additional non-repudiation of your secure communications, turn on the ‘For Your Eyes (F.Y.E.O.)’ delivery option. When creating a new secure email2 message, the F.Y.E.O. delivery option is available under the ‘Extra Security Options’ of the Delivery Slip. F.Y.E.O. requires that every recipient re-enters their Private Email Network password or a unique password as set by the sender every time they wish to read the secure message.

Non-repudiation is legally defined as the absence of deniability, meaning that recipients cannot deny their participation in the transaction. F.Y.E.O. provides certainty of identity and certainty of participation in the transaction, especially if a unique password was set and shared verbally with all recipients. Once the secure message is marked as ‘retrieved’ in the tracking module of the Delivery Slip, you can be certain the recipient(s) have read the secure message.

This feature is also useful, for example, for Senior Executives who share their mailbox with their assistant but still want to selectively keep some conversations private or for added protection when the users leave their computer unattended: no one else can read your secure messages marked with F.Y.E.O. unless they have access to the password.
