Sending Secure Email Messages

  • Send secure messages using LuxSci WebMail and LuxSci SMTP.
  • Attach encrypted content using S/MIME, PGP/MIME, and PGP/Inline.
  • Send complex messages with attachments securely.
  • Add digital signatures to messages if the sender and recipient have compatible certificates.
  • Send one message to multiple recipients who require any combination of encryption mechanisms.
  • Continue using LuxSci's email archival/capturing services, outbound email content monitoring services, and global message tagline service.
  • Forward and reply-to secure messages.
  • Save the disk space of the recipient of SecureLine Escrow messages - these messages only count toward the disk usage of the message sender.
  • Determine when your sent Escrow messages expire. At that time the disk space is released and the recipients can no longer access them. This can be specified on a per-recipient basis.

Viewing Secure Email Messages in WebMail

  • Supports viewing of messages that are encoded using S/MIME, PGP/MIME, and PGP/Inline.
  • Supports Signed-only messages, Encrypted-only messages, and Signed and Encrypted Messages.
  • Supports PGP/Inline encrypted file attachments.
  • Does not support nested encryption (encrypted messages that are encrypted again).

Viewing SecureLine Escrowed Messages

  • Replies to the sender will use the best available or preferred encryption mechanism: S/MIME, PGP, or Escrow -- based on the original sender's settings.
  • Times and dates are shown in time zone of the sender.
  • Escrow portal, where you pick up escrowed messages, is secured via SSL.
Recipients can:
  • View messages and download attachments.
  • Check the message access history.
  • Reply securely back to the message sender. This message can include attachments and can be composed using a rich text editor.
  • Securely download the message to his/her computer in a [.eml] file format that is easily readable in programs like Microsoft Outlook Express, Microsoft Outlook, and Mozilla Thunderbird.

Automated Outbound Encryption

  • Auto-encrypts messages sent via secure SMTP.
  • Works with any email client with no additional software needed.
  • Supports sending to multiple recipients in one message.
  • Is configurable on a per-user, per-domain, or per-account basis.
  • Forces users to only send via secure SMTP.
  • Auto-encrypts to other SecureLine users or recipients in the sender's subscribed address book(s) that have security information defined.
  • Has customizable options for recipients to whom messages cannot be encrypted due to a lack of security information on file. It can send normally, with or without notifying the sender, or not send and not notify the sender.
  • Automatically encrypts based on the matching of keywords, phrases, or regular expressions with your message content.

Automated Inbound Decryption

  • Auto-decrypts messages encrypted using PGP or S/MIME.
  • Requires that the private key needed for decryption be in the recipient's account and that the password to that private key be stored in the "password escrow" mechanism.
  • Passes along messages that cannot be decrypted without changing them.
  • Gives the choice of when messages are decrypted. Custom filters can be applied before the message is decrypted (i.e. to save a copy to a separate folder) and more can be applied afterwards.

User Security Certificate Management

  • Import and export PGP and S/MIME full public/private key pairs.
  • Export PGP and S/MIME public keys.
  • Create new PGP public/private key pairs.
  • Create new S/MIME public/private key pairs using LuxSci as an S/MIME certificate authority.
  • Change passwords on private keys.
  • Optionally escrow passwords on private keys. These are encrypted and stored so only authorized LuxSci staff can access them. This provides optional protection against lost passwords to private keys.
  • Specify your default or preferred keys for each type If you have multiple PGP or S/MIME keys.
  • Rest assured with LuxSci and Thawte, both trusted S/MIME Certificate Authorities. Other popular Certificate Authorities may also be trusted.

Public Key Management

  • All users automatically have access to the public S/MIME and PGP keys for all other SecureLine users across LuxSci -- no special configuration or sharing is needed.
  • Public PGP and S/MIME keys, as well as Escrow questions and answers can be imported into Address Books.
  • Information stored in address books can be used when composing or viewing email for encrypting messages for these addresses or validating digital signatures from users with these addresses.
  • If you have Enterprise WebAide licenses, you can share address books with public key and escrow information with your users so that they can all take advantage of the same information.
  • For recipients in your address book, you can configure their preferences of PGP vs. S/MIME vs. Escrow and PGP/MIME vs. PGP/Inline.

SecureLine Escrow Reporting

Senders can:
  • Track messages sent via SecureLine Escrow.
  • View details on all messages: the time sent or viewed by the recipient, from what IP address, etc.
  • Retract messages so that recipients can no longer access their content.
  • Extend the expiration dates on messages so that recipients have more time to view them.
  • Sort and search messages.
Note: this information is available only to the users and not to administrators or support staff.

Administrative Settings

Administrators can:
  • Force all messages sent from WebMail by your SecureLine-enabled users to be always encrypted.
  • Auto-generate PGP or S/MIME key pairs for all of your SecureLine-enabled users who do not have keys yet. This uses their current WebMail password as the private key password and enables password escrow to allow for lost password retrieval.
  • Force all connections by their users to POP, IMAP, SMTP, and WebMail to be made only securely over SSL.
  • Configure automatic encryption and/or decryption of email for all SecureLine-enabled users.
  • Configure a global or domain-wide default Escrow question and answer.
  • Configure allow and deny lists to define who can send your users messages via the SecureSend portal.
  • Force all connections by users in a domain to POP, IMAP, SMTP, and WebMail to be made only securely over SSL.
  • Configure automatic encryption and/or decryption of email for all SecureLine-enabled users in the domain.

Listen to Our Clients:

"IMAP is the best kept secret in Email. It is the quickest and most efficient way to manage your Email; you decide what messages will be retrieved to your machine, whereas with POP you will be forced to wait through lengthy mail downloads to get to the messages you know are important. The IMAP methodology is helpful for power users who might desire multiple mailboxes (for example, some messages they might want kept on their home machine, whereas others belong on their work machine). LuxSci goes the extra mile in delivering a secure line of communication with their servers. If people knew that their interaction with most other mail service providers was exposing their mailbox password to anybody who happens to be eavesdropping on their network connection, I suspect many would be thinking twice about using anything but IMAP and SSL. And LuxSci is presently one of a very few mail hosting companies who offer just that plus the option of a functionally robust browser interface."
