We're using Tumbleweed. I also know of hospital systems using Kryptiq

We have compliance issues that we are trying to meet. Are we looking for the technical solution that will resolve all of our security issues with e-mail? Probably not... Some of the applications that we have looked at are Sigaba, Zipcorp, Entrust and so on. Right now we are more interested in if anyone is using any type of product for secure email not the technical specifications of what truly is secure e-mail. --------------------------------------------- Neal Clonts, CISSP, MCP Information Security Services University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center Office Phone: 405-271-2476, Option 2 Cell Phone: 405-255-2999 Website: http://security.ouhsc.edu -----Original Message----- From: The EDUCAUSE Security Discussion Group Listserv [mailto:SECURITY () LISTSERV EDUCAUSE EDU] On Behalf Of Matthew Keller Sent: Monday, October 04, 2004 11:59 AM To: SECURITY () LISTSERV EDUCAUSE EDU Subject: Re: [SECURITY] Secure Email "Secure e-mail" is a neat myth. I'm assuming you mean end-to-end encryption via SMTPS for sending and IMAPS/POPS for receiving? Please keep in mind that this does nothing for "securing" the mail during storage, nor does it "secure" mail from "non-S" clients that use SMTP or IMAP/POP, and transfer that allegedly secured e-mail over the wire(s) en claire. If you're referring to another mechanism, feel free to elaborate. On Mon, 2004-10-04 at 11:59, Clonts, Neal D. (HSC) wrote:

environment?
Does your campus environment consist of a health science center? --------------------------------------------- Neal Clonts, CISSP, MCP Information Security Services University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center Office Phone: 405-271-2476, Option 2 Cell Phone: 405-255-2999 Website: http://security.ouhsc.edu ********** Participation and subscription information for this EDUCAUSE
