Been writing about trying out Identity Based Encryption - specificall the Message Guard service from Network Solutions provided by Voltage Security.
This is the typical message I get from other people when I try to use Network Solutions Message Guard to send them emails:
_______________
I do not have time to go do all of these steps to read the email. It takes over 5 minutes to complete this. I am the only one here in my department and this is very time consuming. Can you please just send me a regular email.
_______________
Until this is fixed, this is not a viable solution for every day use between two parties that are not both using the same service. I thought the idea was that the person only has to go through the steps one time...
I also asked Voltage Security how they guarantee that someone at their location is not able to decrypt and read the email - what policies and auditing do they have in place - and as of yet no response.
