Business Email Compromise
Business Email Compromise is the #1 cyber-attack on businesses today. Breaches from Business Email Compromise and data leaks present a significant business risk. XQ can prevent damage from these attacks in real-time.
 
The damage is already done when you notice and remediate the breach.
XQ immediately notifies your admin when a Business Email Compromise (BEC) occurs and identifies where the attack is originating. XQ helps you reduce the risk of a breach and reduce the time a bad actor has access from months to minutes.
XQ’s Secure Chat can also help remediate a BEC through its ephemeral secure channels.
Know Sooner
You know where your email recipients should be
Immediate notifications if someone is trying to access your data who shouldn’t be

Prevention
Stop BEC while it is happening
Rule sets stop unauthorized access by identity and geography

Control Data After it is Sent
Set identity, time, and location limits on your data
Revoke access at any time
 
For businesses concerned with Business Email Compromise, XQ is the best choice available.
 
Ransomware Extortion Protection
With millions of dollars at stake, ransomware attackers will likely find ways to hack into email even as their protections improve. Hackers will conduct a three-stage attack:
Encrypt Your Data
	Encrypt your data and deny you access to it and your network.
Exfiltrate Your Data
	Make a copy of your data
Extort Your Company
	Demand payment each month with the threat of publishing all your intellectual property and customer data to the dark web.
 
 
XQ encrypted email and files make that data useless.
 
Each email is encrypted separately with its own key and its own dynamic access policies. Even if someone does gain access, with this level of granularity your email now has a blast radius of ONE. Dont let one mistake jeopardize your entire company.
 

 
Lifecycle End-to-End Email and File Encryption Across Email, Files, Chat, Forms
Deploy a single data control platform across your communications work suite starting with Gmail & Outlook that gives you a single security plane visibility across all your organizations' communications internally and externally.

Secure Sharing
As private company & consumer data is shared across cloud environments and disparate networks, XQ keeps it secure with continuous protection and lets you govern access throughout the data lifecycle.

Ease of Use
Senders and receivers should both have simple email and file security experiences. One button encryption for email and files for all users and recipients natively embedded in Gmail & Outlook does the trick.

XQ is the easiest way to have digitally secure workflows and to extend that security to customers, vendors, and coworkers. XQ is layer on security and control that works where you already work. 

Data Control
Your data is most at risk after it leaves your possession. With XQ, you retain the ability to know what happens to your data, revoke access to it or reprovision it with granular access controls for Data Lifecycle Management. Keep track of when, where, and by whom your data was accessed and reprovision or revoke access to that data even when it is in someone else's mailbox.
 
Gain effortless and Unprecedented Control Over Your Data

Data Blind
XQ won't read your emails because we never have your data. The encrypted content stays within your existing service (i.e., Gmail & Outlook), and we provide the logic to encrypt, decrypt and modify the policies for data access.

File Protection
Keep attachments secure even after being sent from Gmail or Outlook to desktops, shared folders, Google Drive, or wherever files are stored and transmitted. Track when, where, and by whom access attempts occur.

Secure Bubble
Use XQ to build a secure bubble for colleagues, clients, vendors, and third parties. With encrypted messaging, you can be sure that your data are safe and secure. All of your invoices, contracts, and documents can be securely exchanged. Further, encrypted messages can be used as a verified channel to prevent phishing attacks and establish message provenance.
 
Message Expiration
Do you want an email with your name, address, and credit card information sitting exposed in your vendor’s inbox forever? Probably not. That’s why XQ lets you set an expiration date for any message you send. Choose any length of time, from six hours to six months.
Revoke Message
Unsend emails by revoking access to encrypted emails by the recipients. Just click the “Revoke” button, and your email is no longer accessible.
 

 
Data Compliance Shouldn’t be a Hassle
 
 
Privacy and Compliance
Ensure only the intended recipients can read private consumer data. Meet the strictest compliance requirements with zero trust end-to-end encryption preventing unauthorized access to email, chat, support, forms, files, and data in flight to the cloud and throughout its lifecycle. XQ helps support HIPAA, PCI, GLBA / FINRA / SOX, GDPR, ITAR, EAR, CMMC, CUI, CJIS, and FERPA.
 
Cross-Worksuite Collaboration
XQ Message enables your workforce to collaborate and innovate safely in the applications they already use inside and outside your organization. XQ is deeply integrated into your current worksuite protecting data as it is shared across unknown environments.
 
Chain of Custody for Visibility Across Environments
Each interaction with your data, whether it is IoT, CCTV, email, or chat, is logged with who, where, and when the access was attempted. Each data object has its own individual and unique key and is bound to individual policies. This provides you with an unparalleled ability to manage your data inside and outside your organization. XQ provides a complete auditable trail.
 
Data Residency
XQ uniquely geolocates each data access request. This also means XQ can geofence data so that it never leaves its designated geography. XQ is the only solution providing geofencing at the data level for GDPR compliance. With XQ, data stays where it is supposed to.

Your Data Can Do More
 
Data-Centric Security
Other solutions protect data by focusing on the security of networks, servers, or applications. XQ protects the data itself. Data-centric security allows organizations to overcome the disconnect between IT security and business strategy by marrying security services to the data they protect; When security isn’t an end in itself, data can do more.
 
Extraordinary Ease of Use
Changing behavior is hard. For security to work, people need to be able to use it easily. XQ is seamlessly incorporated into users’ existing workflows for extraordinary ease of use.
 
Full-Lifecycle Data Control and Visibility
Easily view who has accessed or forwarded an email — and adjust or revoke data access controls at any time. Integrate XQ with your SIEM to strengthen threat response and streamline compliance audits.

Quick Deploy and Configuration
Get up and running in a matter of minutes. Period.

This doesn't let you send emails in gmail at all, you keep going around in circles where you press send, it asks you to log in, it takes you to the screen you log in go back to the email press send, it asks you to log in ....you get me!

I can finally send private and encrypted messages to my friends between different platforms (gmail to outlook to whatever) and not have a big heavy install, worry about trading keys or pay over 100.00 per person I want to talk too. I really like that XQ never sees me data.
