Free Encrypted Email – Is Opolis Secure Mail a Fab or another Fad?

April 20, 2011 - PRLog -- It seems obvious that people have become more sensitive towards an increasing number of hacks, leaks and other mis-haps, whereby confidential mails have been made public or got simply lost. Whilst this is lesser of an issue when “arranging drinks tonight”, it does become a problem when confidential information is involved. But equally well this may also become an issue when private photos are sent.

There are by now several secure email providers, but Opolis is the only one which provides its service for free. Whilst paid services, such as Hushmail, also provide a fully encrypted service, other so called “secure” mail providers do not: The most prominent players which actually decrypts and again encrypts messages on their path from sender to recipient are German DE-Mail and E-Postbrief.

With Opolis Secure Mail (http://www.opolis.eu) all messages are sent point-to-point encrypted, and the service is free as well. And Opolis is here to stay.

Opolis was launched to provide a fully integrated high-security email and messaging service solution. For a user, Opolis seems to function like any other free webmail, such as Hotmail or Gmail. However, Opolis combines all security and safety features and encryption steps user-friendly in a single service. And Opolis operates from any host PC all over the world.

Opolis includes also unique monitoring functions: The sender can track all sent messages along their further trail. Hence, if forwarding were allowed, then the sender will see when and to whom a message was forwarded and how it was further processed.

The sender of an Opolis message can also decide to forbid any forwarding, copying or printing. This is an entirely unique function and Opolis is the first provider offering this service for free!

Opolis merely requires that both, the sender and the recipient are Opolis users. The registration process takes approximately 5 minutes.

"Opolis is a response to growing concerns in regards to Email security:  First, sending an ordinary Email is no more secure than sending a postcard. And then, the sender of an ordinary Email never really knows what the recipient has actually done with it or whether the message was even misused", he says. - Mr Forstner, a veteran telecoms entrepreneur, should know: When floating his telecoms company Cybertron in 1997, he saw confidential Emails ending up with individuals who should never have received them.
