"Just having data encrypted point-to-point doesn't solve the problem. If that's all it took, then Gmail, Google Workspace, and Office 365 would be sufficient. The real issue is, ‘What do you do when you send PHI to the wrong person?’ Virtru is a minimal expense for the security and safety it provides.”

HIPAA Compliant Email and File Transfer for Healthcare Organizations
Virtru empowers healthcare organizations — from hospital systems to health tech enterprises — to protect medical data that needs to be shared.
If your teams are using ad-hoc cloud-based file sharing tools, they might be putting PHI and PII at risk.
Virtru integrates with the tools you team uses every day — like Microsoft 365, Gmail, Google Drive, Zendesk, and more — to give you granular control over each email and file that is shared externally. Easily and securely share PHI via email (including Gmail and Outlook), as well as CRM apps like Zendesk and Salesforce.
“Employees used to block time at the end of the day, in a separate window, to deal with encrypted messages because it was so time consuming — Whereas, if they're working in Virtru, they can respond more quickly and execute work for the customer in a more efficient manner.”

Data Security Solutions for Healthcare Customers
Virtru provides a suite of products to support a wide range of health organizations.
Encrypted File Sharing up to 15 GB
Virtru Secure Share makes it simple to send and receive encrypted files. It's perfect for ad-hoc file sharing with external partners like payers, patients, and healthcare practices. It can be used in any browser, and it's great for scans or other files too large to share via email. You can also use it to collect patient paperwork securely: Just put the link on your website and your patients can start sharing data with you right away — no software to install or accounts to create.
Virtru Secure ShareEffortless Email Encryption for Peace of Mind and HIPAA Compliance
Everyone makes mistakes, but a HIPAA breach is a big deal. Provide peace of mind by automating email encryption for PHI. The automated Virtru Gateway can detect and automatically encrypt sensitive data before it leaves your organization, based on the keywords you identify. Virtru also provides client-side encryption that integrates seamlessly with Gmail and Microsoft Outlook. If a user sends PHI to the wrong person, admins can act quickly to revoke access at any time, with an audit trail to verify whether that data was accessed.

Take Control of Your Encryption Keys
Add a layer of control to your encryption by hosting your encryption keys in the location of your choosing: On premises, or in a virtual private cloud. Virtru Private Keystore puts the control in your hands and equips you to separate your keys from your content, putting you in the driver's seat — not your cloud provider.
