BellSouth® Secure Mail

BellSouth? Secure Mail

BellSouth is your trusted partner

BellSouth understands the security threats that you face when sending email. Email travels from the sender to the receiver as a virtual postcard, and as email is stored and forwarded through the Internet, there is a real risk that someone other than the sender or the receiver can intercept and either read it or tamper with it.

The content of email is now regularly finding its way into the news or into the hands of people who should not have it. The fact that large volumes of email can be collected, scanned, filtered, read and altered makes email an easier target for illegal interception than regular physical mail. Also, unlike regular mail, you would never know that your email has been intercepted and read or altered.

Businesses need trusted communications

Many businesses, like yours, are concerned about protecting sensitive business information and many are required by federal laws to protect the confidentiality and integrity of information related to specific industries.

Health Insurance Portability and Accountability (HIPPA) is an example of legislation that protects personal information sent between health care professionals.

Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX) governs integrity of financial operations of publicly traded companies.

Gramm-Leach Billey Act (GLBA) requires that all financial institutions protect customer information.

California Security Breach Notification Act (CB1386) requires disclosure when private personal information of a California resident has been compromised.

These laws directly or indirectly require that information contained in certain email communications be protected against uncontrolled disclosure and also require companies to adopt "reasonable measures" to ensure integrity and authenticity of electronically transmitted private information.

? Comply with legislation ? Reduce risk of liability ? Protect against unauthorized disclosure of private and
