Mail security is a legacy issue

On August 30, 1982, one of the most commonly used compound words on the Internet first entered the public eye. At the time, a 16-year-old young man, Shiva Ayyadurai, acquired the copyright to the computer program 'EMAIL'. The name is short for electronic mail.

Today marks the 37th anniversary of email, and we want to take this opportunity to reflect on the history of email, and remember that it is a guide to the future, even if it will one day be replaced by a newer way of communication. And I also want to have a discussion with you, e-mail today, is it time to say goodbye to it?

History of email

In 1982, the word "email" first appeared, and the first important standard for e-mail was chutai, which was SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol), which was the first standard for transmitting e-mail based on the Internet, and it is still used today.

On January 1, 1983, ARPANET officially replaced the old Network Control Protocol (NCP) with TCP/IP, thus becoming the cornerstone of today's Internet.

Since the mid-1980s, e-mail has been widely used. The first e-mail sent by China was sent to Germany by Beijing Institute of Computer Application Technology in 1987.

In 1988, Eudora, the world's first commercial mail system, was invented by Steve Dorner, an American software engineer.

In 1990, HTML mail appeared, and we could see pictures in emails as well as text.

In 1992, MIME protocol (Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions) was born, which extended the e-mail standard to support more forms of content. This year, Microsoft launched Outlook Mail on MS-DOS.

Hotmail, the world's first web-based email app, was born in 1996, and Microsoft bought it the following year for $400 million.

There are now more than 6 billion email accounts worldwide, and more than 3 billion non-spam emails are sent every hour.

The content of data information is so much that no matter it is ordinary users, companies, or national institutions, it will involve the sending of email information.

The email history is so long, it is related to a lot of personal information, privacy, and even living habits. Some people are used to sending some of their privacy secrets through email, but who can guarantee that your email information is safe during transmission?

Therefore, in the long history of mail, the security of mail is crucial, not only for oneself, but also for others.

What is security. What is mail security?

Just make sure that when you send an email, only you and the other person know what the email is about. And no one else, including the person responsible for the transmission.

In ancient times, when transmitting letters, information was sent through secret language. It was a good communication format agreed by both parties. Only both parties knew how to answer it. Even if it was snatched by the enemy, they could not start.

This has led to some security products that encrypt email, but some email security products are upgraded from handling client or email content security, which changes user habits and email content. However, there is a mail security product called "Secret Mail" that is really different. They do not make full mail security, only do mail content security encryption, which is based on password technology. Does not affect the user's existing usage habits, no matter what the client is, what server is used, no impact on the user, transparency.

Only need to register the mailbox and modify the address pointing to the server can be completed in two steps, the encrypted transmission of mail, convenient and fast, but also a completely free high-quality product
