1. Webinar Special with the GROUP Product Manager: Email encryption for everyone

When you think about email encryption, do you think about complex scenarios involving keys and certificates? Our webinar special "Email encryption for everyone" will show you that it doesn't have to be like that. And there is no need for keys or certificates. You don't even need to have your own encryption solution to receive confidential emails.

Sounds incredible? Then register now for our Webinar Special on 21 or 28 May and find out how. Marko Perlwitz, Product Manager at GROUP, will show you in a live demo how confidential emails really do remain confidential: it's secure, easy to learn and easy to use. And our solution is already certified under banking criteria.

The webinar will also include a chat session during which you will have the opportunity to ask questions. You will need a PC or a laptop with a loudspeaker in order to follow the accompanying audio transmission (VoIP). Register now for this unique series of webinars:

3. LCTY review

The Lotusphere Comes to You events in Zurich, Edinburgh, Brussels and London brought the latest trends, developments and applications in the Lotus environment straight to you. It was unthinkable that GROUP would miss the chance to take part in such an exciting experience and visitors took an enthusiastic interest in our legally approved email management systems.

With the current developments on the financial markets, it must be assumed that operational and legal controls on email communication will become stricter. Consequently, the specialists attending the events showed considerable interest in the innovative GROUP approaches to maintaining email confidentiality and protecting email communication from manipulation.

The focus was on the question of how to meet the requirements imposed by data protection legislation in email communication and how to exchange confidential emails with every business partner. It became clear that protecting sensitive content and preventing data loss are becoming major issues for more and more companies.

Talking to GROUP experts, delegates discovered more about how to prevent data leakage. Archiving was another major issue at the LCTY events. There was an enormous demand for solutions protecting email archives from manipulation and editing.

If you could not attend LCTY events, please feel free to get in touch with us on +49 (0) 0721/4901-0 or send an email to sales@group-technologies.com.

We will be happy to advise you.
