Virtru overview

What is Virtru?

At Virtru, we equip our users to take control of their data, everywhere it’s shared. Our flexible, easy-to-use, and trusted encryption technologies govern access to data throughout its full lifecycle, from creation through sharing, storage, analysis, and action.

Virtru provides:

- Seamless email and file encryption for Google Workspace (including Gmail and Google Drive) and Microsoft Outlook, scalable for large enterprises as well as individual users

- Object-level encryption solutions to secure data wherever it’s stored and shared, whether in motion or at rest

- A set of privacy engineering tools that developers can easily integrate into any application, connected device or infrastructure

- Flexible encryption key management options, including the ability to host your own keys for added control and data sovereignty requirements

Virtru’s unique capabilities include a seamless interface for senders and recipients (without the need to create a username and password); the ability to revoke access at any time, add an access expiration date, disable forward/re-sharing, and add watermarking.

Administrators can set flexible, customized access controls for their users aligned with their data loss prevention policies, including the ability to warn users before sending an email containing sensitive information.

Virtru’s privacy solutions wrap the data itself — whether it’s a file, email or other data element. This gives you persistent control over who can see it and share it, so you no longer have to worry about where it travels.

End-to-end encryption for emails and files. Supports HIPAA, GDPR, CCPA, ITAR, CJIS, NIST, FERPA and CCMC compliance. Integrates seamlessly into the platforms you already use.
