Product Description

VIPRE SafeSend is a protection solution against the accidental emailing of sensitive data outside the company domain.

How do you position yourself against your competitors?

- 5 million emails every day
- 200 enterprises
- 300,000 active users

SafeSend can be triggered under different conditions. The most common option is to display SafeSend for all external emails being sent outside the company. The second most common option is to display it only when files are sent externally.

SafeSend can also be configured to be triggered only when there is a DLP match in an external email. This is useful if you have defined specific DLP rules and only want to inform the user of matches for any of those rules.

What do you like best about VIPRE SafeSend?

During my stint at PwC where I worked in the capacity of a senior cyber security analyst, I had to deal with a lot of sensitive data of customers. The way we used to communicate with our team (PwC employees and third party vendors) was through emails and a proprietary chat application only. We had a DLP solution back then, which used to warn me when email was being sent outside of PwC, but there was no real document scanning as such. Which means whether to send the data to a 3rd party or not was totally dependent on the wisdom of the person writing the email.

Well, this was a major painpoint as I had to double/triple check the emails and attachments before sending any email to the entire team..

Even though I tried SafeSend briefly I am happy with the fact they are solving that painpoint for me without requiring me to learn anything new.

Well, you do have to define the rules though, but that's usually the job of admins. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about VIPRE SafeSend?

There is nothing in particular to dislike. They've done a good job at what they do.. I do have some suggestions though, or rather I have another painpoint that you might wanna solve.

Even with the safeguards in place, sometimes I've sent emails with figures and numbers that can be deemed 'sensitive'. I wish I had a way to "undo" or "unsend" or "edit" that email after sending that (something like chat apps let you do these days). I know emails are very different than chat, but it's a wild though Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is VIPRE SafeSend solving and how is that benefiting you?

One important problem (of my interest) that Vipre is solving is the rule-based document scanning. Apparently it has support for most of the popular file formats, but I've tried with docx and pdf only, and it works. They also saw an option for OCR based scanning, but didn't get a chance to see that in action.

Basically, you (or admin) define some rules (regex or simple pattern) and enforce that, and those rules will be applied on all of your email attachements. Yu get some really granualar control over the where and when those rules should apply. You can set some rules to apply only for specific categories of receipients, or specific type of file etc.. This is where things can be complicated but they have simplified the process as much as possible. Regardless, whoever defines these rules should have domain knowledge already; the end-users don't have to worry much. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about VIPRE SafeSend?

VIPRE SafeSend creates a popup notification when you're sending an email to external users (or internal if you prefer) that will create a chicken test and scan the contents of a message to see if you're potentially sending out any protected information (all of which you can configure with regular expressions) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about VIPRE SafeSend?

Since businesses function with email as their primary means of communication with people, there is a human problem with a popup window every single time you send an outbound email. It becomes second nature that another step is needed when sending any emails, over time, people just click through and let the message be sent. It's not a DLP solution, it's basically a chicken test. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is VIPRE SafeSend solving and how is that benefiting you?

In rare instances, people actually read through the notification popup and will give their email a second lookover before actually sending it out, there isn't much else. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Dia Firdaus of VIPRE SafeSend

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts and experiences with VIPRE SafeSend. VIPRE SafeSend aims to strike a balance between security and convenience, and we're always looking for ways to refine and improve the user experience.

Your feedback about the popup and its potential impact on user behavior is valuable in this regard. You can also configure SafeSend to popup only when necessary so not on all email, possibly only the emails with sensitive information or going to specific domains/addresses, only which contain attachments or multiple recipients reducing the popup from always coming up.

Your feedback has been passed to our Product Team, but don't hesitate to contact your VIPRE representative or our support team if you require support.
