Email Encryption Isn't Enough Email Encryption Isn’t Enough Five Best Practices to Safeguard Against 3rd Party Cyber Risk Executive Summary CISOs and other IT executives cringe when they think about an email’s journey across the internet, undergoing eavesdropping by criminals, companies and governments along the way. Or that it may sit in the 3rd party recipient’s email server for months, completely outside your control. Peers tell you about their non-compliance fines from breaches of personal information, while you worry about theft of intellectual property giving a competitor the edge. Many firms try to address these problems by encrypting their most sensitive communications but discover a myriad of shortcomings. You can’t give users a tool that prompts questions like, “What is my recipient’s public key and why do I need it?” You need secure email that still works like normal email, especially for 3rd party recipients who may be customers, clients, and partners in other organizations. The kicker: you can’t guarantee email privacy if your cloud provider has the encryption keys, or if you don’t properly govern and monitor your insiders. Embrace the following five best practices to go beyond encryption and fully safeguard your organization’s email privacy. SHARE TWEET SHARE 2 | www.accellion.com SECURE EMAIL BEST PRACTICE Ensure Employees Adopt Secure Email 1 Incorporate Simple Security and Governance into Users’ Workflows Security professionals abhor the risks of standard email traveling over the internet in the clear. You want standard, compliant encryption—AES-256 at rest and SSL/TLS in transit—to thwart scans by advertisers, malware and foreign powers. You also strive to govern who has access to regulated data, such as protected health information (PHI), and who they can send it to. To attain this, you may have rolled out secure email to your end users, only to find they won’t use it. Don’t blame them. Few business users overcome the barrier of working with public keys, so say goodbye to common tools like Pretty Good Privacy (PGP). Likewise, you can’t even consider asking your partners and customers to install and learn specialized software. Finally, you need a solution that goes beyond mere encryption: it must apply your governance policies and provide the tracking you need for compliance audits. Resolve these security and compliance issues by equipping your employees with an easy-to-use secure email plugin or gateway. Ensure they can use it in their standard desktop and web email clients, such as Outlook or Gmail. Depending on your policies and their role, either give them checkbox options to individually secure emails, or transparently secure all of them. Make sure it works for your mobile users, and if it requires a special app, select one with consumer-grade simplicity. Cover your primary 3rd party cyber risk — your recipients — by protecting their downloads and replies on any email system or mobile device. And lastly, close the loop by automatically encrypting and auditing their replies. 3 | www.accellion.com SECURE EMAIL BEST PRACTICE Guarantee Email Privacy 2 Own the Encryption Keys You’ve encrypted your email, but have you ensured its privacy? That depends on who hosts it. By US law, when you turn your email over to another company, you give up ownership. Cloud hosting vendors are obligated to surrender your content in response to a legal subpoena, unencrypted if possible, and may be barred from informing you. Avoid these exposures by retaining ownership of the confidential email bodies and attachments. Strip them from the email with a plugin or gateway that stores them securely on-premise. The stripped emails will travel over the unprotected internet but contain only secure links, not the confidential information. When your recipients click those links in their own email clients, they will authenticate and securely download the reassembled emails. You will get the audit trail you need for compliance. If your commercial or government organization mandates a cloud deployment, use a private cloud FedRAMP solution to reduce your risks. Since it serves only your organization, utilizing a private cloud service minimizes the attack surface. Public cloud services, on the other hand, intermingle your data and metadata with their other customers. Ensure it has FedRAMP Authorization for the peace of mind of its yearly audit of 325 rigorous security, process and access controls, including continuous monitoring. “Avoid privacy exposures by retaining ownership of confidential email bodies and attachments” 4 | www.accellion.com SECURE EMAIL BEST PRACTICE Send Large Files Without 3 Breaking Your Email Server Stage Encrypted Content in Private Infrastructure Executives may prefer outsourcing to encrypted email services, but frequently discover they are inadequate for their business processes because of 20 or 30 MB attachment size limits. For instance, engineering firms need to protect intellectual property (IP) from espionage when they transfer huge CAD designs to manufacturers. Marketing firms can’t risk leaks of promotional videos they send to clients, and tech support engineers must safeguard logs containing personally identifiable information (PII). Some secure email services handle larger files by automatically staging them on public cloud virtual drives, violating Best Practice #2. Or users may resort to transferring on a personal cloud share, with no security or audit trail. IT managers who deploy traditional email servers on-premise, on the other hand, often find large attachments overrun their server’s storage capacity. Fortunately, the solution to Best Practice #2—providing secure, governed staging for sensitive emails—applies equally well to large attachments. Choose a staging platform that provides for scalable storage growth, and meets requirements you may have for high availability, disaster recovery, and worldwide distributed processing. SECURE EMAIL BEST PRACTICE Make Regulatory Compliance a Breeze 4 Centralize Policy Enforcement and Audit Reporting Do you consider the bargain worthwhile if outsourcing to an encrypted email service comes at the cost of duplicated governance and audit? For example, mail services usually contain their own, proprietary Data Loss Prevention (DLP), when you already painstakingly configured your on-site DLP to enforce your policies. And even though you already configured role-based data access policies for your data sharing software, your administrator must configure it again for the secure email service. Centralize your secure email governance with role-based user policies. Tie role assignment to LDAP/AD attributes for set-it-and-forget-it new employee onboarding, and automatically onboard external users with a restricted role. Define each role’s policies for domain white- and blacklisting, unauthenticated downloads, allowed file types, forwarding and link expiration time. Also govern the decisions users are allowed to make: secure the message body? Set a digital fingerprint to detect tampering? Send a return receipt when the recipient downloads the file? Finally, reduce the preparation time for your audits: automate reporting of your policy settings, role by role, and deliver a searchable transaction audit trail. 5 | www.accellion.com SECURE EMAIL BEST PRACTICE Catch Inside Jobs in the Act 5 Track and Visualize All Content Leaving Your Organization To guard against malicious insiders taking trade secrets or careless employees leaking damaging information, your CISO and SOC need visibility into all email traffic leaving the organization. Create a consolidated audit trail of all the traffic as the first step, detailing the data source and content, the sender and recipient, and their locations. Next, utilize advanced, real-time visualizations to help you identify unusual traffic, with drill-downs to the details you need to take action. Finally, utilize emerging machine learning technology to automatically alert your SOC to abnormal behavior patterns, while minimizing false positive indications. A sudden increase in emails of design files and strategic information to another country could indicate industrial espionage. New collaboration between teams who never worked together before could herald a new interdisciplinary project – or nefarious insider activities. The algorithms show you the needles in the haystack, and because of the complete audit trail, you know the who, what, where and when so you can take action. 6 | www.accellion.com Accellion in Action Secure Email Contents to Protect Privacy Sie Email Secure Link to Body Attachments Bine Ue Reciien Web, mobile, desktop plugins Any email client, Any browser Sece Sain Body Attachments ncryted storage Buitin audit trai PLATRM CS dasboard Hardened scaabe Acceion atfor Coiance reorting nreise Private Coud FedRAP Roebased oicies 7 | www.accellion.com About Accellion The Accellion Kiteworks® content firewall prevents data breaches and compliance violations from sensitive 3rd party cyber communications.

    Stored Communications Act: Reform of the Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA) Richard M. Thompson II Legislative Attorney Jared P. Cole Legislative Attorney May 19, 2015 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov R44036 Stored Communications Act: Reform of the Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA Summary In 1986, Congress enacted the Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA) to both protect the privacy of an individual’s electronic communications and provide the government with a means for accessing these communications and related records. Although passed at the infancy of the Internet, the Stored Communications Act (SCA), which is part of ECPA, has been interpreted over the years to cover the content of emails, private Facebook messages, YouTube videos, and so-called metadata, or non-content information, connected to our Internet transactions (e.g., websites visited, to/from and time/date stamps on emails). The scope of the SCA is determined largely by the entities to which it applies, “electronic communication service” (ECS) providers and “remote computing service” (RCS) providers, as defined in the statute. It does not apply to government access to records held by a party to the communication. The SCA has two core components. First, it creates a broad bar against service providers voluntarily disclosing a customer’s communications to the government or others, subject to various exceptions, and second, it establishes procedures under which the government can require a provider to disclose customers’ communications or records. As to government access, ECPA utilizes a tiered system with different levels of evidence required depending on whether the provider is an ECS or RCS; whether the data sought is content or non-content; whether the email has been opened; and whether advance notice has been given to the customer.

Received: 30 April 2020; Accepted: 26 May 2020; Published: 29 May 2020 Abstract: Mail user agent (MUA) programs provide an integrated interface for email services. Many MUAs support email encryption functionality to ensure the confidentiality of emails. In practice, they encrypt the content of an email using email encryption standards such as OpenPGP or S/MIME, mostly implemented using GnuPG. Despite their widespread deployment, there has been insufficient research on their software structure and the security dependencies among the software components of MUA programs. In order to understand the security implications of the structures and analyze any possible vulnerabilities of MUA programs, we investigated a number of MUAs that support email encryption. As a result, we found severe vulnerabilities in a number of MUAs that allow cache side-channel attacks in virtualized desktop environments. Our analysis reveals that the root cause originates from the lack of verification and control over the third-party cryptographic libraries that they adopt. In order to demonstrate this, we implemented a cache side-channel attack on RSA in GnuPG and then conducted an evaluation of the vulnerability of 13 MUAs that support email encryption in Ubuntu 14.04, 16.04 and 18.04.

  • Cryptic Journalism: News Reporting of Encryption
    Cryptic journalism: news reporting of encryption Einar Thorsen School of Journalism, English and Communication Bournemouth University United Kingdom [email protected] ORCID http://orcid.org/0000-0002-7126-7293 This is an Accepted Manuscript of an article published by Taylor & Francis in Digital Journalism on 19/10/2016, available online: http://www.tandfonline.com/10.1080/21670811.2016.1243452 Abstract In light of Edward Snowden’s global surveillance disclosures, this article examines news discourses about online communication security and surveillance circumvention practices. It analyses 1,249 news reports mentioning encryption in The Guardian and The New York Times, covering a 3-year period from June 2012 to June 2015 (one year before and two years after the Snowden revelations). Whilst there was a marked increase in volume of news articles mentioning encryption post-Snowden, the context in which encryption is discussed has since shifted from an initial emphasis on "surveillance" towards "security" issues. However, the research found that greater news coverage of encryption did not necessarily mean an increase in depth of coverage, with most mentions of encryption vague and non-descript. In terms of source usage, the research finds an emphasis on private corporations in both publications analysed. This is problematic when many of the organisations allowed to speak on encryption were those accused of colluding with the US and UK Governments to aid covert mass surveillance - the likes of Google, Facebook, Apple, Microsoft and so forth - thus providing them with a platform to exonerate themselves from the accusations. This contradictory depiction of communication security serves the status quo and prevents advancement of the “encrypted by default” communication practice called for by Snowden.

  • The Next Generation Communications Privacy Act
    ARTICLE THE NEXT GENERATION COMMUNICATIONS PRIVACY ACT ORIN S. KERR† In 1986, Congress enacted the Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA) to regulate government access to Internet communications and records. ECPA is widely regarded as outdated, and ECPA reform is now on the Congressional agenda. At the same time, existing reform proposals retain the structure of the 1986 Act and merely tinker with a few small aspects of the statute. This Article offers a thought experiment about what might happen if Congress were to repeal ECPA and enact a new privacy statute to replace it. The new statute would look quite different from ECPA because overlooked changes in Internet technology have dramatically altered the assumptions on which the 1986 Act was based. ECPA was designed for a network world with high storage costs and only local network access. Its design reflects the privacy threats of such a network, including high privacy protection for real-time wiretapping, little protection for noncontent records, and no attention to particularity or jurisdiction. Today’s Internet reverses all of these assumptions. Storage costs have plummeted, leading to a reality of almost total storage. Even U.S.-based services now serve a predominantly † Fred C.
