What is our primary use case?
My main use case for Virtru Data Protection Gateway is that my entire team uses it to securely encrypt our email and our sensitive financial files. I use it internally as well as for communicating with our portfolio companies and investors. Virtru Data Protection Gateway seamlessly integrates with our G Suite account and is much easier to use than traditional secure file system or password-protected email messaging tools. I also love the Virtru team, which offers a powerful API that we can use to build the encryption into software tools that we build or use internally in our work.
A specific example of how I use Virtru Data Protection Gateway to encrypt sensitive financial files or emails is that it's a superior choice for financial professionals, especially when handling sensitive company financial or confidential information. It's especially helpful for busy professionals using G Suite or Office 365.
Email encryption without installing or exchanging keys with the recipient is very easy. We also use it to encrypt our sensitive emails in a few different use cases. We can let the sender manually encrypt the email or, based on keywords in the email, we suggest the user encrypt the email or we auto-do it.
What is most valuable?
The best features Virtru Data Protection Gateway offers include email DLP that is easy to configure and maintain, applications sent directly from SaaS applications like Zendesk and Salesforce, and the ability to protect attachments with restrictions such as time, print, and copy.
The email DLP and attachment restrictions have helped my team by making it very easy to configure and maintain our emails. Email encryption without installing or exchanging keys with the recipient has boosted our email security.
