Beachhead Solutions launches BeachheadSecure Email Encryption for MSP reseller channel

Beachhead Solutions, provider of cloud managed PC and mobile device encryption, security and data access control, today announced BeachheadSecure Email Encryption, a simple and intuitive application installed as a Microsoft Outlook plugin on any Windows PC. This bank-grade e-mail encryption solution enables businesses to immediately send secure e-mails in PDF standard format protected by AES 256-bit encryption. 

Small and medium-sized businesses handling sensitive customer data or personally identifiable information (PII) under regulatory protections in EMEA such as the Protection of Personal Information Action (POPIA) and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) must take extreme care in preventing unauthorised access to that data. In its native form, e-mail is not a secure communication channel. Solutions leveraging PDF encryption have long been the standard option for secure communication in the banking industry and among other security-first enterprises. However, businesses without the security budgets of large enterprises have been unable to purchase and implement effective PDF e-mail encryption solutions, until now.

Customers will get the sophistication and flexibility of a bank-grade encryption solution with the simplicity of a Microsoft Outlook plugin – and at a price-point so affordable that it’s an easy decision even on a small business budget.”
