E-Mail Privacy in the Workplace

Even with a well-heeled corporate privacy policy stating that all employee communications may be monitored in the workplace, the legality of e-mail monitoring is not as clear cut as one might think.

If you don't want others to read your e-mail, YOU should take the initiative to secure it properly; this includes a complete anti-theft solution, not just encryption. In addition to simply encrypting email and attachments, senders should use software that enables them to assign rights to recipients (ability to disable the copy/print/forward/screen capture messages) to control correspondences once they have been recieved.

It is sad that we have to worry about malicious minds eyeing our messages, but we can't sit around pretending this isn't happening.
