Heather,



I would be interested to hear about your experience with the Voltage
product,  (called SecureMail?). My institution does not currently support
central email encryption but we're running POC testing of X.509 certs,
cryptographic smartcards - S/MIME is one of the areas of interest. But
SecureMail looks interesting: clientless encryption, decryption
authenticated using central authentication system, no user certs or keys to
distribute/manage...

For all of you out there handling HIPAA-protected email and other restricted
information -



Do you use an email encryption service or application?  Stanford University
uses Voltage (http://www.voltage.com), and we're starting a process to
review the service overall to determine if this is still the right solution
for us today.  What's worked (or not worked) for you?



Thanks!
