We went with Zix for our email encryption.  Set up and running in less
than 4 hours; appliance based.
It has scanning templates for HIPPA, Personal Info, Sox.  You can also
create your own.  Users can force encryption by typing a certain word in
the subject line.  In our case, it's SECURE.

Subject: Question around forcing mail encryption

Hi there!  Long time lurker, been a while since I've posted however...

We're being asked to look at how to force encryption for outbound mail
traffic more so than we do today.

Current environment is Exchange 2007 SP1, moving to SP3 "soon".  Client
mix covers everything from OL2003 up through OL2010, as well as all the
usual suspects on the Mac side (Entourage / Entourage Web Services /
Outlook 2011 "early adopters").  A handful of our folks do use PGP
desktop client to encrypt individual messages, and we do leverage
opportunistic TLS, and force mutual TLS with certain domains as well,
server side.  There is growing concern about messages being forwarded
outside of our environment (and control) that are not encrypted.  The
desire is to have a capability to encrypt some (or all) of the outbound
email. 

While client side solutions for PGP or S/MIME do work, given what we're
being asked to do my preference would be to leverage a gateway product
if possible, where we could enforce encryption based on configured
policy settings, keyword hits, etc.    Thought process being that if we
leave this in the hands of the "end user", encryption of messages is
still a behavioral issue that we'll likely not solve;  if we can isolate
things and handle the encryption based on a set of policies and such at
the gateway level, we have much less risk of a "lazy user" who
habitually neglects to encrypt "sensitive" messages (for example).  

I've come across both the PGP Universal Gateway and the SecurExchange
offering in the past, but don't have a preference (or a favorite, or
experience with either).  In the next several months we will also be
doing a fairly aggressive global upgrade to our UC infrastructure to
Exchange 2010 and Lync 2010 server.  Again, the preference would be that
IF we have to invest in something now, it is something we can leverage
in that future state in some manner (at a minimum should be compatible
or support upgrade to Ex2010 versions!).


I'm hoping that all of you can offer any insight or thoughts around
this;  I'm sure we're not the only enterprise that's decided to tackle
this particular issue, so I'm hoping to leverage the collective hive
mind and see if there are any other amazing products we're missing, or
any tips, ideas, thoughts, challenges, gotchas, or anything else to keep
in mind that y'all can share.  I'm particularly interested in any
product recommendations that we could add to our short list of potential
vendors, or thoughts either way if one is clearly much better than
others (or clearly much worse, natch!).

Thanks in advance!

Scott
