Introduction


This chapter explains how LexiGuard helps meet the need for security of information.

LexiGuard™ secures your files to minimize the exposure of your sensitive information without compromising your access and use of that information. It offers:

New Features in LexiGuard Version 1.1

1.  Password-based encryption and decryption of files.
Password-based encryption can be used to encrypt information without using a public key or to send information securely to someone who does not have LexiGuard in the form of a self-extracting file.

2. Sending a file by email from within LexiGuard with a single click on the file.  It's easy to send a key-encrypted file to some or all of the people whom it was encrypted to.  The email address from their certificate tells LexiGuard where to send the file. Or send an unencrypted file and specify the email recipients.
