Re: Encrypting and digitally signing e-mail messages

How many different domains/recipients outside of the company will require
this? Internal is fine, you just encrypt the message with the Notes

and make sure the recipient is a Notes address.

For external, there are various options. You can try acquiring x.509
certificates for all of your users requiring this (it seems that there

less and less SSL providers still issuing these certs) or you can

Lotus's cacert process (I've done this before for a customer, but it was
years ago) and the recipients will have to accept trust of your cert in
their mail clients. The external users aren't Notes, are they?

One of the more recent trends, though, is to send an email containing

a link to a website that would contain the text and/or attachment. Having
https securing the data and a username/password for access. If this is an
acceptable option from The DOL, this is something that could be done in
Domino natively with a customized database.

From an employee in our HR department:

<snip>
We have discussed the need to send some emails by hr (e.g. medical
information) in a secured fashion. We did not do anything in the past
because of the expense. The DOL has issued final HIPAA rules on the
subject. The final rules make it clear that we have to take steps to
secure the sending of medical information.

I am going to need a way for a number of people in the hr dept to send
secure emails to people outside of the company as well as inside the
company.

There are various ways to do this. What may help us out to start is to
know
what your general requirements are - why do you want to do this? Do you
have a customer who is requiring you to send s/mime?

I was reading "Encrypting and digitally signing e-mail messages" at

In there they mention "If you want to encrypt or sign mail that is

sent over the Internet, you must have an Internet certificate." Ok,

does one obtain this certificate? How does one use this certificate?

you need a separate certificate for each Notes user who wants to

digitally

sign their messages?
