摘要:
Architecture that employs encryption and storage of encryption keys to protect trusted client message content from an untrusted third-party hosted service. Each trusted user machine is configured to optionally apply security to messages. Rules determine when automatic protection is applied and the level of protection to apply. The trusted client automatically downloads the rules (or rules policies) from a trusted rules service and caches the rules locally. During composition, the rules analyze the message and automatically apply security template(s) to the message. The security template(s) encrypt the body of the message, but not the headers or subject. The untrusted message service processes the header and delivers the message to the correct recipient. The hosted service cannot view the contents of the message body, and only intended recipients of the protected message can view the message body. Offline protection is supported, and the user can override protection by the rules.

摘要:
A web-based client for creating and accessing protected content may be provided. Consistent with embodiments of the invention, a webmail client may be provided allowing a user to apply a restriction template to a document. The webmail client may be further operative to decrypt and display the document and enforce the restriction against a recipient.

A perimeter network may be utilized to filter electronic mail messages destined for an internal network. A computer may be utilized to monitor an electronic mail mailbox for changes to a safe recipients list and/or a blocked senders list. The computer may further be utilized to automatically copy the safe recipients list and/or the blocked senders list to a network directory in the internal network. The computer may further be utilized to automatically send the safe recipients list and/or the blocked senders list to a network directory in the perimeter network for utilization by one or more agents executing on a computer in the perimeter network. The one or more agents may be configured to utilize the safe recipients list and/or the blocked senders list to filter electronic mail messages received by the perimeter network which are destined for delivery to the internal network.
