Self-hosted · encryption at rest · no recipient accounts

Secure email your recipients can open without an account.

Secure Message is a self-hosted secure message gateway. It protects and encrypts outbound mail, delivers it through a one-time-code recipient portal, and filters inbound spam, phishing, and BEC — all on infrastructure you own.

Everything your mail flow needs to stay secure

From a single protected domain to a multi-tenant fleet — Secure Message covers outbound protection and inbound defense in one appliance, without bolting on extra products.

Outbound message protection

Rule-based policies scan every outbound message and automatically encrypt, redirect, or block sensitive mail — before it ever leaves your domain.

One-time-code recipient portal

Recipients open protected messages in a branded web portal using a one-time code sent to their inbox. No account, no password, no app to install.

Inbound spam & phishing filtering

Layered checks — SPF, DKIM, DNSBL reputation, and content heuristics — quarantine junk and spoofed mail before it reaches a mailbox.

AI phishing & BEC defense

Optional LLM classification catches business-email-compromise, spear-phishing, and social engineering that slip past signature-based filters.

Encryption at rest

Every stored message and attachment is encrypted with AES / Fernet keys you hold, so data on the appliance is unreadable if a disk is ever exposed.

Quarantine, allow & block lists

Review held mail, release false positives in a click, and manage per-domain allow and block lists from a single admin console.

Recipient verification

Reject mail to non-existent users at the edge via SMTP callout, LDAP, or Microsoft Entra directory lookups — cutting backscatter and wasted load.

Scheduled encrypted backups

Automated, encrypted backups of configuration, quarantine, and message stores keep you recoverable without ever exposing plaintext.

Audit logs & compliance export

Every admin action and message decision is logged and exportable to CSV for audits, e-discovery, and retention requirements.

AI-powered threat defense

Phishing, LLM, and AI security — built in

Secure Message pairs classic mail authentication with an on-premise AI layer that understands message intent — catching modern phishing and BEC while keeping every byte of your mail inside your perimeter.

Phishing & BEC defense

Stops spear-phishing, business-email-compromise, spoofing, and lookalike-domain attacks with layered SPF/DKIM/DNSBL checks plus intent analysis — before a malicious message ever reaches a mailbox.

LLM content analysis

A large-language-model classifier reads what a message is actually trying to do — urgency, payment redirection, credential harvesting, tone — and flags social engineering that signature and rule-based filters miss.

AI security & data protection

The model runs inside your own deployment: your mail is never sent to a third-party AI service, prompts and content stay encrypted at rest under your keys, and every AI decision is logged and auditable.

No message ever leaves your infrastructure to be scored — the AI runs where your mail runs.
How it works

From MX record to secure inbox in an afternoon

No mailbox migration, no client software, no accounts for your recipients. Secure Message sits in front of the mail you already run.

1

Point your MX at the gateway

Route inbound mail through Secure Message and relay outbound through it as a smart host. Deploy on your own server, cloud or on-prem, in an afternoon — no mailbox migration, no client software.

2

Filter inbound, protect outbound

Inbound mail is authenticated and scored (SPF/DKIM/DNSBL + heuristics, with optional AI). Outbound mail is checked against your policies and encrypted automatically when it matches.

3

Recipients read securely — no account

Protected messages arrive as a notification with a secure link. The recipient enters a one-time code and reads or replies in the portal, while everything stays encrypted at rest.

Security by design

Your mail, your keys, your infrastructure

Most secure-email services decrypt and scan your mail on their servers. Secure Message keeps encryption at rest under a key that only ever exists on your host, and runs entirely inside your own perimeter.

Encryption at rest with your keys

Messages, attachments, and quarantine are encrypted with AES / Fernet keys that never leave your deployment — plaintext is never written to disk.

Authenticated inbound mail

SPF, DKIM, and DNSBL reputation checks reject spoofed and forged senders before any content is evaluated, cutting phishing at the door.

AI & LLM threat detection

A large-language-model classifier reads message intent to catch phishing, business-email-compromise, and social engineering that signature-based filters miss — running inside your perimeter, never sending your mail to a third party.

Admin MFA & role-based access

TOTP multi-factor for administrators, granular roles, and full audit logging of every configuration change and message decision.

No third-party data path

Self-host the gateway and no message — inbound or outbound — is ever processed on someone else’s servers. Your mail stays inside your perimeter.

Deploy your way

Runs on your infrastructure, not ours

Every message is encrypted at rest under a key that only ever exists on your host, and the entire mail path runs inside your own perimeter. The one decision left is where AI inference happens — and that can be your own hardware too.

Self-hosted

Total control for regulated, sovereign, and air-gapped environments.

  • One Debian host inside your own perimeter
  • Your keys, your storage, your retention
  • Nothing in the mail path depends on us
  • Data-residency and sovereignty friendly

AI on your terms

Point the classifier at a hosted model, or at inference running on your own network.

  • Weighted filtering runs entirely on-host
  • Optional AI classifier for phishing and fraud
  • Use a hosted model, or your own endpoint
  • Message content need never leave your network
Who it’s for

Built for teams that can’t send mail in the clear

Regulated industries

Healthcare, finance, and legal teams keep HIPAA, GLBA, and privileged mail encrypted at rest and deliver it to recipients without exposing PHI or client data to a third party.

MSPs & IT providers

Run one multi-domain gateway across every client, with per-domain policies, branding, and quarantine — turning secure email into a billable managed service.

Internal IT teams

Add outbound encryption and modern inbound filtering in front of Microsoft 365 or your own mail server — no mailbox migration, no new client for users to learn.

Compliance-driven orgs

Audit logs, retention controls, allow/block governance, and encrypted backups give compliance and security teams the paper trail and control they’re accountable for.
