Email encryption encrypts or disguises the content of emails to prevent potentially sensitive data from being viewed by someone other than the designated receivers. Authentication is frequently included in email encryption. The process included in the process is known as cryptography and is used to protect e-mail by encrypting the e-mail data. A private key is used to access the information from the encrypted data at the receiver’s end.

Abrupt increase of email usage within the corporate world as well as for personal communication among individuals can be read by unidentified or unauthorized sources.  The need to secure this sensitive information against data theft and loss has inspired the organization to adopt email encryption software.
