📧 Gmail Adds Easy Encryption Toggle—But It’s Not True E2EE
Google just rolled out a beta encryption feature for Gmail enterprise users that simplifies secure communication:
・Toggle encryption from the email draft window
・No S/MIME exchange required
・Third-party inbox support coming later this year
But there’s a catch:
🔒 This isn’t true end-to-end encryption
🔑 Admins still control the keys and can monitor user content
🔍 Data is more secure in transit, but not completely private
IT leaders should evaluate the trade-offs: this new system offers better usability, but still requires trust in Google’s infrastructure and policies.
