hi all

I am looking for a product/application which will manage all the sending of 
information to 3 parties working with the bank.

I dont mean to implement a VPN or ssh. Im looking for a app which will manage 
sending information in a secure way.

someone knows about such an application?

Hi Juan, 

PGP Desktop  is one the usual commercial solutions to this problem: 
http://www.pgp.com/products/packages/desktop_corporate/index.html

The information creator would encrypt the information and include the
public keys of the 3 parties, and send it out.  That way, only those 3
parties can view it.  All 3 parties will need the same software. 

You can do the same things for free with free GPG, but you'll
generally need more technical users to pull it off without a lot of
angst.  Public key crypto is hard enough for normal folks to wrap
their head around that there is value in making it a bit
easier/prettier in this case, at least in my experience.

Best Regards,
