Law Firms and Corporate Legal Departments

Law firms have long been leery of using email for confidential client communications, and corporate legal departments are doubtless concerned about the potential impact of executives' careless use of plain text email when communicating sensitive information such as trade secrets or shareholder voting requests. And then there's the potential for severe business disruption caused by a request to deliver a mass of archived email as part of a discovery motion.

CertifiedMail not only encrypts email messages 'on the fly' and without the need for technical expertise, but it also provides an accurate record of when a message was received and opened.

CertifiedMail provides the following benefits:

• Protection of confidential information in transit over the Internet: Enjoy the same level of security for email communications as you would with hard-copy document courier services.
• Ease of implementation: CertifiedMail secure messages can be sent directly from your web browser or email client, with no special software required by the sender or the recipient.
• Industrial-strength encryption: Documents are never exposed during their journey over the public Internet, and are stored in encrypted format on secure servers after transmission.
• Cost-effective for everyday use: No additional administrative overheads associated with setting up and maintaining keys and certificates, as these are not required by CertifiedMail.
• Thorough tracking: All CertifiedMail messages generate a receipt, date and time stamped when the message is read.
• Ideal for firms with few IT resources: Optionally available as a Managed Security Service, so no in-house IT expertise is required.
