While TLS offers some level of security, it is neither comprehensive nor assured. In cybersecurity circles, it is no longer considered a reliable method for securing email. If a TLS certificate is expired or invalid, communication can default to clear text, exposing sensitive data. Furthermore, end users have no visibility into how emails are processed during store-and-forward, leaving security uncertain.
The only way to guarantee end-to-end protection is through Pre-Internet Encryption (PIE). Galaxkey employs PIE, ensuring that when users press the secure-and-send button, their data is fully encrypted within our secure technology. This guarantees safe transmission over any network, accessible only to the intended recipients.
No, all Galaxkey secured files can be opened in a web browser. However, when working offline a native application is the only way to decrypt these protected files. Hence, if you are working on a plane or train (for example) and have no internet access you should download the app.
All a user must do is register on the Galaxkey website. Once they have registered they can either use the website to access data, files and emails or they can use the native applications that the Galaxkey team has built for the supported platforms.
When you send an email or share file, the application indicates who is using Galaxkey. If the using the software, they will be invited to securely collaborate with you. The user will then be guided through the same process(as when you joined)and 30 seconds later they will have an account.
The team at Galaxkey work hard to support all platforms. We have over 60 developers working persistently to make sure that you get the best support on the following platforms:
- Windows
- Android
- Apple iOS
- macOS
- Web Browsers
Once you have created an account, you can download our Native Applications from https://manager.galaxkey.com/Downloads
When you send an email, by its very nature, it goes to the cloud and traverses many servers. That’s why we built Galaxkey- so that you can easily secure the email or file whist its being transmitted.
