Our mission
To deliver secure transfer and storage services which are both simple and valuable to each business and their customers.
As business is increasingly undertaken online, email accounts and client portals have taken over from client meetings and postal addresses as the place where we receive, send and sign important information and sensitive documents.
Yet personal email accounts remain a GDPR breach and a gateway to scams; email encryption solutions are still somewhat cumbersome to use; and client portals do not properly transfer ownership.
Secure information transfer and storage needs to be simple to implement, a pleasure to use, and provide the customer with a safe home where they can keep the correspondence.
Our journey
We started out in the City of London, helping specialist financial services businesses, such as private banks, hedge funds and wealth managers, communicate safely with their clients.
We certainly didn't invent business email encryption and file sharing, but we did change it. We made it simple to integrate. We made it affordable and accessible. And, crucially, we made it easier to use for the end client.
We now provide encrypted email, document signing, and file sharing services to thousands of organizations all around the world and across a wide range of sectors.
