And because it uses your established e-mail address and works with your installed e-mail programs, Secured-Accountant fits into your current business processes.

 

The Accountable Solution!

A Private Email Network (PEN) allows people connected to different networks the ability to confidentially send electronic messages to trusted associates without exposing sensitive information to the public Internet. A PEN is like a gated community for e-mail: it acts as central location for all secure traffic on a specific network. PENs can be restricted to highly defined user groups, company wide, or they can be public and usable by anyone. Secured-Accountant.com is a PEN built specifically for indepedent Accountants and Bookkeepers.

 

A PEN is a secure pathway that employs highly effective encryption, without requiring complex programs, certificates or servers (no PKI). Secure messages use existing e-mail address and can be created and read in Microsoft® Outlook®, a web browser, and mobile devices like Blackberry, Windows® Mobile and iPhone™.

 

If you are looking for a platform that integrates secure e-mail and permission-based large file exchange for the purpose of sharing confidential information with coworkers, vendors, partners and clients, the email2 platform is for you!

 

Your Private Email Network (PEN) provides:

 

  • CONFIDENTIALITY. Trusted channel for confidential conversations: Authorized members are in, spammers are out. You control the entire network, from sender to recipient.
  •  

  • ACCOUNTABILITY. Overnight mail replacement through guaranteed delivery of messages and real time tracking & audit trail: decrease turnaround time by eliminating courier & faxing frustrations and delays. Increase productivity and ensure non-repudiation between entities by knowing when messages are read and forwarded.
  •  

  • CONTROL. Ensure that the activities being engaged in by an individual are commensurate with the level of authorization assigned to the individual: restrict forwarding & replies, even recall read messages after they're opened.
  •  

  • SECURITY. Information is protected from alteration in transit and during storage: two layers of security in end-to-end transmission of messages & attachments (HTTPS transit + AES Storage At Rest Encryption) - Same security as internet banking systems without complex encryption programs, certificates exchange, or servers.
  •  

  • COMPLIANCE. Minimize legal & financial liability privacy protection adhering (but not limited to) HIPAA, SOX, GLBA, Nevada State Bill NRS 597.970, Massachusetts' 201 CMR 17.00, HSPD 12, EU DPD 95/46/EC and SB1386. Ensure that each component of every transaction is available as a permanent, retrievable business record.
  •  

  • AND MORE. Works in Microsoft Outlook™, Blackberry™, Windows® Mobile and iPhone™ with your current e-mail address. Secure FTP replacement: gigabyte-file attachments (10x faster). Powerful API allows secure communication enhancements to third party applications such as ERP, CRM, Accounting, HR or even custom in-house applications.

 

Your Private Email Network (PEN) works alongside basic e-mail: same e-mail programs and e-mail address, but uses HTTPS through a PEN to transit messages and attachments instead of SMTP. Secure messages co-exist in Outlook with basic e-mail messages and are synchronized with any mail server such as Microsoft Exchange ensuring that your entire legacy infrastructure remains intact. Secure messages are transported using 128 to 256-Bit SSL connections and stored on your PEN using AES encryption. Since this is your network, only you control the master password responsible for encrypting all content and attachments.

 

The email2 platform is used worldwide as an out-of-the-box, full service secure business communication platform that bolts onto existing e-mail system such as Microsoft Outlook with a zero-impact to any existing infrastructure or business processes. The platform is used for secure communication applications in the Military & Defense industry, HIPAA compliant medical transaction and even for HR related tasks such as confidential electronic delivery of employee paystubs.
