Best Plugins to Encrypt Your Emails
If you use emails to send important information such as that related to your field of work, you must be careful and use tools that help you do so, including encryption tools that help you hide the content of the message from any third party trying to know its content, and only the recipient can read its content. Popular email services such as Gmail and Yahoo do not provide end-to-end encryption to protect your data. End-to-end encryption is one of the important defenses to protect your messages. Here are some of these tools.
- FlowCrypt
is the perfect choice for Gmail users. It is an easy-to-use tool that you can add to your Chrome browser and use when you open the Gmail email page. It allows you to secure Gmail emails using the PGP encryption standard. It also allows you to send encrypted messages and attachments to any recipient. Recipients can respond securely whether they use FlowCrypt or another PGP encryption service or even if there is no encryption at all. If they do not have any service, you can encrypt your messages or attached files with a password.
FlowCrypt is available for free to Gmail users as an add-on for Chrome and Firefox and is also available as an Android app.
- Mailvelope
Mailvelope is a free and open source email encryption tool available for Chrome and Firefox and supports services such as Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo, Hotmail, mail.ru and more...
It may be a bit complicated, but as far as protecting messages with sensitive information is concerned, that's okay.
