SecureLine Escrow Activity: Global Report of All Messages Sent

Monday, May 17th, 2010

LuxSci has just added a new feature for accounts using SecureLine end-to-end email encryption.  The “SecureLine Escrow Audit Report” provides a downloadable list of all secure messages sent via SecureLine Escrow by all users in the account and includes:

  • Sender
  • Recipient
  • Subject
  • Message Size
  • Date and Time Sent
  • Date and Time the message expires from Escrow
  • Date and Time the message was last viewed by the recipient
  • IP address of the recipient when the message was last viewed

This report provides account administrators a quick way to globally audit what has been sent and to see what messages have been opened by recipients.  It is available in the administrative “Reports” area.

Sunday, April 25th, 2010

LuxSci has updated its web-based email composition tool in two significant ways:

  2. Composition of SecureLine-encrypted email messages is now simpler and more user friendly.

SecureForm: now with SMTP TLS for Secure Form Email Delivery

Friday, April 2nd, 2010

SecureForm is LuxSci’s service that makes it quick and easy to collect data, including files, from web and PDF form posts and have that data emailed to one or more recipients and/or archived in a LuxSci WebAides document storage area.  The “Secure” in SecureForm refers in part to the fact that the emailed form data can be secured using PGP or S/MIME.  This, combined with enforced use of SSL, ensures that the form data is secured from end-to-end … from submission by the end user to the receipt by the web site administrator.  This ensures HIPAA compliance and strong security for that data.

Now, SecureForm supports the option of secure delivery of form data emails to recipients using TLS instead of PGP or S/MIME.  While use of TLS only is less secure than PGP or S/MIME, it is more user friendly — there is no need for certificates or extra steps to decrypt the messages once they arrive.  TLS does provide transport encryption from LuxSci’s servers to the recipients servers and thus still provides HIPAA compliant form data delivery.

SecureLine Offers TLS-Only Enforced Outbound Email Encryption

Thursday, February 18th, 2010

LuxSci’s SecureLine end-to-end email filtering solution has been augmented with a new, optional, outbound email encryption option: “TLS Only”.

SecureLine accounts that enable “TLS Only” can have their outbound email delivered over an SMTP TLS encrypted channel to recipients whose email services support it.  This mitigates the need for using PGP, S/MIME, or SecureLine Escrow message pickup service for many secure outbound email messages — if TLS message transport encryption is “good enough” for your organization (i.e. it is for HIPAA compliance and it is for most bank-to-bank communications).

SecureLine TLS-Only Outbound Encryption:

Custom SecureLine Escrow Notification Messages

Friday, September 4th, 2009

SecureLine Escrow is the facet of LuxSci’s SecureLine service that allows users to send encrypted email messages to anyone with an email address.  With Escrow, the message is encrypted and stored in a secure database.  A notification message is sent to the recipient that informs them of a message waiting, along with the subject of the message and sender. The notification also provides a link to use to retrieve the secure message.

See “Send a Secure Email to Anyone” for more about how Escrow works.

Can You Make Your Email More Secure?

Wednesday, August 26th, 2009

LuxSci offers many options for email security. Whether it is PGP, S/MIME, LuxSci’s SecureLine end-to-end email encryption, or forced secure logins over SSL, LuxSci can guide you in making the best choices for secure and safe email.

End-to-end email encryption is one way to ensure that your email can only be read by the intended recipients. SSL and TLS connections are secure, but only to a point. While you can ensure that your users connect securely to LuxSci’s servers, who is to say that your recipient’s connection is secure? With LuxSci SecureLine, even if the recipient’s connection isn’t secure, you can be assured that your message is sent securely and can only be read by whom you intended.

New! Premium High Volume Outbound Email Service

Monday, June 1st, 2009

High Volume EmailLuxSci’s High Volume Outbound Email Sending Service, released earlier this year, has been a notable success.  Our service permits the sending of legitimate bulk email messages and also provides reliable “smarthost” services.  However, the offering is restricted to SMTP services and does not include the many outbound email processing tools present in LuxSci’s Premium Email service.  I.e. see  LuxSci Outbound Email: 5 Sending Options Compared!

Since High Volume Mail was offered, we have had many requests to send HIPAA-compliant bulk outbound email, i.e. newsletters and notices that contain protected health information (PHI) .  In such cases, SecureLine should be used to encrypt the outbound email in a way that can be opened by any recipient, but which is still secure.  Unfortunately, integration with SecureLine is not a feature of our Basic High Volume service.

LuxSci has responded by releasing Premium High Volume Outbound Email Service.  This is essentially Premium Email hosting with:
