As anyone responsible for data security already knows, most company data is either not 
stored securely or it is emailed as plain text. Campaigns to secure internal and external 
communications by using public key infrastructures (PKIs) have so far failed to provide a 
comprehensive solution.

 PrivateCrypto
SafeGuard PrivateCrypto can close these security loopholes. It provides encryption that is 
both easy to integrate and easy to use. It can protect valuable, confidential data on PDAs, 
notebooks and PCs, and ensure that data is sent securely when email.
This product integrates seamlessly with Microsoft Windows Explorer and standard email 
applications such as Lotus Notes and Microsoft Outlook—no need for expensive upgrades 
to existing IT infrastructures. SafeGuard PrivateCrypto’s easy to understand and implement 
functionality means users do not require any training. Users can encrypt and save the files 
they want simply by right-clicking their mouse to activate SafeGuard PrivateCrypto in the 
Context menu.
SafeGuard PrivateCrypto offers maximum flexibility in today’s complex IT environments. It 
can be implemented on all standard mobile device platforms, saving files securely on PDAs, 
notebooks and desktop PCs. In addition, users can easily exchange encrypted data by email even 
if recipients do not have SafeGuard PrivateCrypto installed on their devices. Because the files are 
self-extracting, recipients do not need special software. All the communication partners require 
for secure email traffic is the password that they use to encrypt or decrypt the file.
There are two other exclusive functions that make it even more user-friendly and ensure that 
data remains confidential: An easy-to-use password-logging function provides a handy way 
to solve the problem of forgotten passwords, and the “secure wipe” function guarantees that 
original files are removed completely from the storage medium.
