WatchGuard XCS SecureMail Email Encryption
Instant-on security for confidential, regulated and business-prudent communications.

While en route from a sender to a recipient, an email message may pass through several waypoints across the world before reaching its intended destination. Each of those waypoint networks pass along the message in-the-clear, meaning your email, including attachments, is available for anyone to read and steal, much like mailing a postcard. A single weak link along this path, a criminal port sniffing your network, and many other situations may compromise the confidential information of a message and can potentially result in leakage and exposure of sensitive information. The consequences of this happening can be detrimental, including brand erosion, loss of customer confidence, financial repercussions, legal penalties, regulatory violations and fines, and public embarrassment.
