eCipher™ is the easiest way to protect your email
communications. You can securely exchange confidential email
with your attorney, doctor, accountant, business partners,
employees, customers, and family members — just about anyone
without having to worry about the complex email encryption
process.
Strong encryption and digital signatures ensure safe
transit, integrity, and authenticity of your email
communications. In addition, unlike many email encryption
programs, eCipher allows you to control what happens to your
message once it's been received.**
eCipher works with most email programs, including
Microsoft Outlook™, Thunderbird™ or Eudora™. Microsoft
Outlook users have the additional benefit of the eCipher
add-in. Sending encrypted email is as easy as clicking the
“Send Secure” button. If you prefer, eCipher can send secure
email directly through web-based email programs like Gmail,
AOL, Yahoo! Mail Plus, Comcast, and many others!***
** Only eCipher Pro supports Digital
Rights Management; eCipher Free provides email encryption
only.

delivered. All email secured with eCipher is private. It was designed so that
only your intended, authenticated recipients can read your encrypted
email.

Overview
A general introduction to the product.
How
Do I Open a .safe file?
Using your email program, open the message sent to you that
contains the .safe file. Either double-click the .safe icon
or drag the icon onto the View File icon on the eCipher
toolbar. Click Reply to respond securely.
How
Do I Create a Secure Email?
Click the Compose icon. Compose as you would any other email
and type your secure message. Click the Attach button to
find and attach files or click the attachments tab and drag
files onto the tab.
How
Do I Add a Contact?
Click the Contacts icon, then click the Add Contact icon at
the top of the contacts pane (green plus). Fill out all
contact information. The only required field is the email
address. Drag an image file onto the image area if you wish
to use it as an avatar. Click the Save button.
How
Do I Use Drag and Drop Functionality?
To open a safe file, drag the .safe icon from an email
message on to the View File button on the desktop toolbar.
Or drag a saved .safe file from its location on to the View
File button. To add a V-card (.vcf) to your contacts, drag
the V-card on to the Contacts button on the toolbar. When
someone sends you a secure eCipher message, one has the
option of including the v-card along with the message. This
v-card can also be saved out of the message using drag and
drop. Finally, to add an attachment to a secure message,
drag the file onto the compose window.
