Stormshield and EVERTRUST are thrilled to announce the integration of their solutions Stormshield Data Security for Google Workspace and EVERTRUST Horizon to seamlessly enable email encryption within Gmail. This marks a significant milestone as it introduces a fully automated SaaS encryption solution beyond Google's ecosystem, eliminating previous constraints.

 

The ability to easily encrypt sensitive data

Until now, implementing encryption in Gmail posed challenges due to the complexity of deploying and supporting features requiring Public Key Infrastructures (PKIs). To remedy this situation and make it easier to deploy keys in Google Workspace, Stormshield is now offering a SaaS encryption service, enabling customers to implement encryption of sensitive data with minimal effort. Protecting confidential information in email exchanges is crucial to ensure confidentiality and data protection. Electronic certificates bolster security by verifying sender identities as well as message integrity.

This collaboration results in a comprehensive email encryption solution that exceeds modern security standards, enabling our client organizations to communicate confidently, knowing their data is protected, says Jocelyn Krystlik, Stormshield Data Security Business Unit Manager. In cloud environments, client-side encryption (CSE) is pivotal, enhancing data security and the Gmail Client-side encryption (CSE) is notable for Google Workspace users, encrypting email content in the browser.”

Effectively managing S/MIME certificates, EVERTRUST ensures seamless email encryption and decryption, safeguarding sensitive information from unauthorized access.

 

A new SaaS key orchestration service

Next June, Stormshield will launch a SaaS key orchestration service to link PKI, the Stormshield encryption service and Google Workspace (CSE). This integration provides Google Workspace customers with an automated service that is transparent, simplified and requires no additional action on the side of administrators.

We are happy to introduce this integration to our joint customers with Stormshield, explains Alexandre Aufrere, CTO of EVERTRUST. This technical collaboration between our two solutions will enable our common clients to enjoy a simplified and complete security, as EVERTRUST's ‘Horizon’ solution complements these efforts by offering a seamless Certificate Lifecycle Management (CLM) experience.
