ProofPoint has announced a new policy-driven email encryption module that can be added to their Messaging Security Gateway-Virtual Edition virtual appliance. The ProofPoint virtual appliance runs on VMWare.

The new version of Proofpoint Secure Messaging is fully integrated with Proofpoint’s messaging security platform and requires no additional hardware to filter, route and encrypt messages. Powered by Voltage IBE technology, it automatically and dynamically encrypts outbound email based on customizable policies, right at the email gateway. As a result, encryption policies are accurately and consistently applied and end users do not need to take any special actions to ensure that messages are properly encrypted.
