Editing advanced encryption settings

Use the Advanced Encryption Settings area of the Encryption tab to fine-tune the content of the email notification template delivered to recipients. For example, you might want to include your organization name, and a contact method in case the recipient has trouble accessing the message.

A Forcepoint logo appears in the email notification by default. You can replace this logo with a custom version, for example the logo of your organization. The logo must be hosted at a URL that will be accessible by all encrypted message recipients, such as your company website.

You can also add annotations to the decrypted message, and define the action to take on messages that have already been encrypted before being sent through Forcepoint Email Security Cloud.

Steps

  1. Under Advanced Encryption Settings, click Edit.
  2. To include an annotation at the end of the decrypted message, select Add annotations to the inbound decrypted message.

    Click the annotations link to edit the annotation (see Editing an annotation).

  3. Select Quarantine messages that are already encrypted if you want to quarantine outbound messages that have been encrypted using a different method, for example S/MIME.

    If you do not select this option, outbound messages that have been encrypted using a different method are processed without adding advanced encryption.

  4. To replace the Forcepoint logo in the notification template, select Use custom logo, and enter the URL where the custom logo is located.
  5. Select Add custom text to encrypted message template to include your own text in the email notification sent to recipients.

    Enter the text in the field below the check box. Note that HTML tags are not supported. The text appears in the email notification in addition to the standard text that explains how to access the encrypted message.

  6. If required, specify the language in which to display the standard text of the email notification. The following languages are available:
    • Czech
    • Dutch
    • English
    • French
    • German
    • Greek
