Press Release
Collaboration between Bommelerwaard and SecuMailer
Security and privacy are paramount in our email communications. That is why we have been emailing via a secure connection since early 2019. An internal test group has recently tested this extensively for us. The conclusion is: as a user, you will notice virtually no difference!
For example, nothing has changed in MS Outlook for the user! But behind the scenes, a lot has changed: we do things differently from traditional email solutions! We do not ask users to work with cryptographic keys that are difficult to manage, and we do not bother them with external web portals. We do this transparently and ‘behind the scenes’ via SecuMailer.
SecuMailer offers a secure email experience and does not impose any additional requirements on the sender of the message. Every email we send via SecuMailer is digitally signed, which means that the content of the message cannot be altered. We deliver the email to the recipient’s inbox, monitor whether delivery is successful, and report this in the form of a periodic overview to the senders of the messages.
Because standard security protocols are used, the quality of the security can also be tested externally. This is done periodically.
