The Virtru Difference

Unlike other email encryption options, Virtru keeps messages and attachments protected
throughout their full lifecycle, while ease of use ensures adoption and maximizes ROI.

No Third Party Access

Virtru’s end-to-end encryption, powered by the open standard Trusted Data Format, keeps plaintext data shielded from access by the email provider and other unauthorized parties.

No New Accounts

Virtru leverages existing account credentials. External recipients never have to create new usernames and passwords to access protected email.

No Keywords to Remember

Other approaches rely on keywords to protect email that busy users forget, putting email at risk. Virtru offers keyword-based AND on-demand protections that senders turn on by simply flipping a switch.

No Manual Key Exchanges

Unlike other end-to-end solutions, users never have to exchange keys. Virtru hosts keys and manages exchanges, making it easy for users to collaborate securely. You can also host your own keys.

No Separate Portal Applications or Software to Install

Virtru integrates seamlessly with existing email clients, including Gmail and Outlook. You don’t have to introduce redundant portal applications and new workflows that frustrate users.

No Forced Vendor Trust or Blind Subpoena Risk

Most vendors force you to trust them to host your data and the keys protecting it, risking blind government subpoenas. Virtru reduces this risk by storing keys separately from the data.
