Emails are widely employed today for communicating results quickly and concisely in a variety of environments. This is all the more valid in the business world, where information asymmetries can be quite costly. Other expensive events are security or privacy breaches of such digital messages and Bersoft Private Mail seeks to provide users with a working solution to counter these problems.

It does this by employing a double-layered protection scheme: first, one must enter the correct security key to access the program and all of its linked email accounts and second, one can optionally encrypt outgoing messages with RSA 512 bit and better ciphers.

However, before any of these things can be done, users must connect to an existing email account. This can be hosted by any provider, as long as the communication protocols used are either IMAP or POP for incoming items and SMTP for outgoing. Valid credentials also have to inserted and, upon entering correct settings, the program connects to the account provider and downloads all the relevant email data.

Once the link has been successfully created, one can employ the tool as a regular email client and send or receive items through it. Attachments can be inserted, although the tool automatically disables any scripts from being run; also executable files sent via emails cannot be launched. While these are useful features, the most important part is being able to encrypt outgoing messages. This is performed using RSA algorithms (supported variations include 512, 1024, 2048 and 4096) and allows one to ensure security and privacy breaches are actively countered.

Going back to the first protection layer, it must be noted that the application allows users to define complex administrator-type security codes, to protect against unauthorized access to the tool. Also, a barrier against keyloggers is provided by means of two virtual keyboards (a standard model and one based on emoticons). More-so, all the locally saved items (e.g. messages) are encrypted using AES-256 algorithms.

All things considered, the utility is an asset for anyone interested in ensuring complete protection for sent email messages. It supports complex RSA ciphers that can be added to outbound items to ensure data is adequately protected. At the local level, a master password guarantees security against unauthorized access.
