Combining standard encryption with content filtering rules

To guard against end users inadvertently sending unsecured sensitive data outside your organization, you can set up a lexical rule that triggers standard encryption for any message that matches against that rule.

For example, from the Content Filter tab set up a predefined PCI compliance rule (see Creating a compliance rule), and then edit it to include the Tag subject action at a threshold you choose. Tag the subject line with a phrase such as "Encrypt".

Next, click Add in the Encryption section of the Encryption tab. In the The subject starts with field, enter the phrase you chose to tag the subject line.

When the standard encryption rule is set up, this ensures that a message matching against the compliance rule is parked for secure HTTPS retrieval by the recipient, with notifications going to the sender and recipient as configured in the encryption rule.
