HIPAA Compliant Calendars, Contacts and Reminders – Tasks for your iPhone and Android

Wednesday, April 3rd, 2013

While use of mobile devices and tablets in medical situations is pervasive; HIPAA compliant synchronization and storage of such information is often seriously lacking.  Everyone knows email can contain ePHI, but calendar appointments, address books, and task lists can and do contain just as much ePHI and their secure use must be strictly enforced.

LuxSci’s WebAide collaboration tools, combined with MobileSync for real-time synchronization with mobile phone and tablets (and Outlook 2013), provide a simple and effective HIPAA compliant solution for synchronized mobile accessible calendars, contacts and reminders or tasks (oh ya, and email).

New Contact/Calendar/Task Synchronization Option for Outlook 2013

Monday, March 4th, 2013

LuxSci customers with Basic or Premium MobileSync can now use this same service for automatic synchronization and push updates of calendar, contact, and task data between LuxSci WeAides and Outlook v2013 for Windows.

Outlook v2013 for Windows is released and now includes native support for “Exchange ActiveSync” (EAS) for synchronizing calendar, contact, and task information with external systems. EAS is usually only available in mobile devices, as a different mechanism is used by desktop programs to synchronize data with Exchange.  Outlook v2013 is the first version of Outlook (or any other desktop email program that we are aware of) that supports ActiveSync and which thus allows automatic synchronization of data with non-exchange-based systems without the need for any kind of special plug-in.

Email Encryption Opt Out Now Available for Outlook and Other Email Programs

Friday, December 7th, 2012

A few weeks ago, we introduced the option for users in security-enabled accounts (such as users subject to HIPAA compliance requirements) to determine for themselves which messages need to be encrypted and which do not.  See: HIPAA Compliant Email – You Decide Which Messages Need Encryption

The  ”SecureLine Opt Out” feature was then only available to users of our web-based email interface.  Now, the “SecureLine Opt Out” feature is also available to:

  • Premium Mobile Sync users on mobile devices
  • Customers using SMTP from mobile devices
  • Customers using SMTP from most email programs (e.g. Outlook, Thunderbird, Mac Mail, etc.)
We have also enhanced Opt Out to enable administrators to have more control over who can and cannot opt out of SecureLine email encryption.

Case Study: Selective Encryption

Thursday, September 13th, 2012


Say you handle sensitive or private information that needs to be transmitted via email, and the nature of the information necessitates that you be able to send the emails in an encrypted manner. However, not every email you send will contain information of this nature. Perhaps, in between sending these encrypted emails, you also need to be able to email your technically-challenged relatives to organize a family function. Is there a way to selectively allow outbound encryption without an all-or-nothing solution?

Shared Calendars: Web, Desktop, and Mobile.

Wednesday, August 29th, 2012

“I need to share our corporate calendar with all my employees, but only allow some people to edit it. … I need my staff to be able to access their calendars while on the road with events updated in real time. … My secretary needs to be able to manage my calendar without having full access to my other information.  …. We have separate, overlapping groups of people who need to have multiple calendars shared with different sets of people; we need event assignment notices and reminders – can you help?”

Shared calendars and event collaboration are topics high on the priority list for many of our customers.  Fortunately, LuxSci has a robust calendaring system complete with methods for fine-grained sharing, notifications, reminders, and access from desktop and mobile devices.

How to Open and Read .eml Email Files

Wednesday, August 22nd, 2012

Many email programs and services allow downloading and/or saving email messages in a format called “.eml”.  This format is very simple and very standard.  These are plain text files that hold one email message per file and which contain the full message headers and full MIME-encoded message content.

LuxSci allows saving email messages from WebMail and from the SecureLine Escrow portal as eml files for offline usage.

While .eml is a widely used standard, old versions of Microsoft Outlook (before v2010) do not support it and that leaves many people wondering what to do with these files.

Here we explain how to open and view .eml-encoded message files on your computer.
