 Frequently we are approached by customers who have automated systems that need to send out secured emails on demand and without any manual interaction. These could be web site response systems for sensitive information, health care labs emailing results which need to meet HIPAA compliance, or other situations where the email messages must all be secured.
LuxSci’s SecureLine service provides a means for encrypting some or all outbound email messages using any combination of 4 different email encryption techologies: SMTP TLS, PGP, S/MIME, and SecureLine Escrow (secure message pickup).

 LuxSci has updated its WebMail interface to provide a much tighter integration with its Documents WebAides. In particular, users with a Premium WebAide license can now:
- Send any email attachment directly to a Documents WebAide from the WebMail message view screens. No need to download and re-upload files. No need to switch between WebMail and Documents WebAide interfaces. Its fast and easy: click a link next to the attachment and a small dialog appears where you then select the Documents WebAide to send the file to.
- Add files from your Documents WebAides to new email messages. When composing email messages in WebMail, you can now select files from any of your Documents WebAides in the email “Attachments” tab of the composer. Multiple files from various WebAides can be added with just a few clicks. Even encrypted files can be decrypted and attached to your email message with a click.
With these updates, Documents WebAides become much easier to use as a central repository of your files.

 LuxSci’s authenticated smart hosting service has been enhanced to provide full compatibility with outbound SecureLine automatic email encryption, per-user taglines, per-user sending limits, per-user SMTP usage auditing, and more. It also makes integration with your existing email server or Exchange server very easy.
This new “intelligent” smart hosting feature takes the stream of inbound email coming from your server through a single LuxSci SMTP user and determines which actual user is sending the message, based on the “From” address in the message headers. The message is then treated as if it was sent by and authenticated by the LuxSci user with that address.

 The situation: your organization needs to collect information from clients through from(s) on your web site, but that information is sensitive. So, you need to be absolutely sure that the information is transferred from the users of your web site to you in as secure a fashion as possible. This means that
- no one but you (or optionally your authorized staff) can intercept or read the information,
- the information is never stored insecurely anywhere
- the information cannot be modified without your knowledge
Why would this high level of security and privacy be necessary? There are many cases where they are essential; some of these include:

 Do you feel secure? If so, you must be a good corporate citizen. You are on time every day, contribute effectively and courteously in meetings, and your appearance is impeccable. You could be a contender as Trump’s next Apprentice. Of course, no one knows that you’re more like Andrew Dice Clay when you email your co-workers and friends. Or do they???

 If you are allowing Mozilla FireFox or Thunderbird to remember passwords to web sites and/or email accounts in their Password Manager tool, you should know that these passwords are all stored in a plain text file (base64 encoded) on your computer’s disk drive. This file is accessible to anyone with administrative access to your computer. If you have any concerns about the possibility of other people accessing your computer and this gaining easy access to copies of the passwords that you are using, you really need to employ the “Master Password” feature of these programs.
