Encryption and digital signatures with VS-NfD approval

Convenient, secure, approved: GreenShield software protects emails and files using state-of-the-art cryptography. The German Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) has approved GreenShield for classified information up to the VS-NfD level.
Anyone who wants to protect their data must secure their digital communications. This applies in particular to public authorities and their industry partners, who are subject to the relevant confidentiality regulations. GreenShield offers user-friendly email and file encryption and is one of the few solutions of its kind to be approved for the confidentiality levels VS-NfD, NATO-restricted, and EU-restricted.
GreenShield can not only encrypt data, but also sign it. As an add-in for Microsoft Outlook (Windows), HCL Notes (Windows), Explorer (Windows), and Nautilus (Ubuntu), GreenShield integrates seamlessly into the user’s email program or operating system. In addition to S/MIME, GreenShield also supports OpenPGP, making it an ideal solution for exchanging data with a wide range of communication partners in an interoperable and secure manner.
