Email is a must for life and work, which leads to the proliferation of fraudulent emails and the frequent occurrence of email leaks. These problems had harmed many email users worldwide, and it is continuing every day. This Internet security hazard must be resolved as soon as possible! In fact, this problem can be completely solved by encryption and digital signature technology. It is to use S/MIME standard to encrypt every email to eliminate the email leaks, and to digitally sign each email with an email certificate, which not only guarantees the content of the email will not be tampered with illegally, and it can ensure that the email address of the sender cannot be forged, and can clearly display the authentic identity information of the email sender, so that the user can identify whether it is a fake identity email at a glance, thereby completely solving counterfeiting email fraud problem.
But why has such a good technology not been widely used to solve the problem of email fraud? Because the threshold for using S/MIME technology is too high, not only the user's email client software is required to support S/MIME standards, but also the user is required to apply for a S/MIME email certificate from a CA, and the user is required to install the email certificate to all devices, and the email certificate can be configured correctly, and know how to send an encrypted and digitally signed email. That is to say, to realize the use of email encryption and digital signature technology to solve the problem of email leaks and email fraud is definitely a time-consuming, laborious and costly hard work that ordinary users cannot complete.
Let us return to the origin of solving the problem of email leak and email fraud. What you need is to solve the problem of email leak and email fraud through encryption and digital signatures of emails, and you do not need to care about how to apply and use email certificates. It is like you need bread, and you don't need to care about wheat or flour. You need an email client software to implement email encryption and digital signatures, and an email client that can send encrypted and digitally signed emails like cleartext emails. This email client is our core product-MeSign APP, which automatically configures the email certificate and automatically uses this certificate to implement encryption and digital signature.
Email digital signature and encryption require email certificates, so there are many CAs around the world that sell S/MIME email certificates, and there is also many email client software that support S/MIME email certificate digital signature and encryption, but the whole process is too complicated. The certificate application and the certificate use are completed by two different manufacturers, and each is only responsible for their own work that fail to achieve seamless connection and improve user experience.
Although MeSign Technology has realized the automatic configuration of email certificates, it has realized S/MIME automatic email digital signature and encryption, which greatly reduces the threshold for using email digital and encryption and greatly improves the user experience. However, the email certificate automatically configured for free by the Free Edition service is only trusted by MeSign. When MeSign APP users send signed email to other email client users to exchange public key certificates, other email clients will prompt untrusted warnings, making MeSign APP users still not smooth to implement S/MIME email digital signature and encryption with other email client users. This problem has been solved very well in the Starter Edition service - automatically configure the publicly trusted Vp Email Certificate.
However, the Vp Email Certificate automatically configured by the Starter Edition service is a certificate that only validates the email control and does not validate the true identity of the email address owner. The digital signature of the email with this certificate can only prove that the user controls the email address and that the email has not been illegally tampered with but cannot prove the true identity of the email address owner. MeSign Technology has launched a Pro Edition service to solve this problem. All users who use the Pro Edition service need to complete the identity validation as required. MeSign APP will automatically configure the corresponding validation level signing certificate for the Pro Edition user to prove the user’s trusted identity to solve the problem of email identity fraud.
Users can buy the "Pro Edition" service in the pricing page. Why is this service defined as the Pro Edition service? Because the email encryption problem has been perfectly solved by the Free Edition and the Starter Edition. However, email encryption does not mean that emails are secure, encryption only solves the problem of leaking email content. If a fraudulent bank email is also encrypted, you will definitely not think it is secure. Only when the authentic identity of the sender has passed the identity validation of a trusted third party, can the identity of the sender be proved to be trusted and the problem of email fraud can be truly solved. Coupled with email encryption, it is a perfect real email security solution. MeSign Technology have its own CA system, as a trusted third party to provide users with one-stop identity validation services, so that users can enjoy one-stop professional email encryption and trusted digital signature services, so we call this service “Pro Edition” service.
MeSign Pro Edition service adds user identity validation service on the base of the Starter Edition, and automatically configures the signing certificate containing the corresponding identity information. According to the different user types, it is divided into Personal Pro Edition and Business Pro Edition, Personal Pro Edition service needs to validate the identity of the individual. MeSign APP will automatically configure one Personal Identity Certificate containing personal name, province/state, city, and country, and one publicly trusted Vp Email Certificate.
