Specify the Encryption Providers

In the current release, CA DataMinder can support up to four encryption providers. PGP and Voltage SecureMail are supported by default and you can also add support for two further providers. However, an individual user policy must specify which one of these providers to use.

You specify the encryption providers in the user policy System Settings. In each case, you specify the provider's name, and the name and value of the x-header used to flag emails that require processing by a third-party encryption solution.

To set email encryption settings

1. In the User Policy Editor, navigate to the following folder:

   System Settings, Email Encryption Settings

2. If you want to use:
   • PGP or Voltage to encrypt emails, go to step 5.
   • A different third party encryption provider, go to step 3.
3. Open a 'User Defined' Encryption Provider folder and edit these settings:

   Provider Name

   Enter the name of your third party encryption provider that you want to use (for example, 'Unipraxis Solutions')

   X-header Name

   Enter the x-header name that you agreed with your encryption provider (for example, x-unipraxis-msg').

   X-header Value

   If required, you can enter a value for the x-header (such as 'Encryption Request'). This value gets appended to the email x-header in this format:

   x-unipraxis-msg: Encryption Request
   

4. Save the policy changes to ensure that the new encryption provider gets added to the list (see step 6).
5. Return to the System Settings, Email Encryption Settings folder.
6. In the Which Encryption Provider? setting, choose the provider you want to use.
