<p><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/End-to-end_encryption">End-to-end encryption (E2EE)</a> is a way of encrypting email contents so that nobody but the recipient(s) can read the email message.</p>
<h3>How can I encrypt my email?</h3>
<p>The standard way to do email E2EE and have it work between different email providers is with <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pretty_Good_Privacy#OpenPGP">OpenPGP</a>. There are different implementations of the OpenPGP standard, the most common being <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Privacy_Guard">GnuPG</a> and <a href=https://openpgpjs.org>OpenPGP.js</a>.</p>
<p>There is another standard that was popular with business called <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S/MIME">S/MIME</a>, however it requires a certificate issued from a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Certificate_authority">Certificate Authority</a> (not all of them issue S/MIME certificates). It has support in <a href="https://support.google.com/a/topic/9061730?hl=en&ref_topic=9061731">G Suite Enterprise/Education</a> and <a href="https://support.office.com/en-us/article/encrypt-messages-by-using-s-mime-in-outlook-on-the-web-878c79fc-7088-4b39-966f-14512658f480">Office 365 Business or Exchange Server 2016, 2019</a>.</p>

It has support in <a href="https://support.google.com/a/topic/9061730?hl=en&ref_topic=9061731">Google Workplace</a> and <a href="https://support.office.com/en-us/article/encrypt-messages-by-using-s-mime-in-outlook-on-the-web-878c79fc-7088-4b39-966f-14512658f480">Outlook for Web or Exchange Server 2016, 2019</a>.</p>
<h3>What software can I use to get E2EE?</h3>
<p>Email providers which allow you to use standard access protocols like <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Message_Access_Protocol">IMAP</a> and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_Mail_Transfer_Protocol">SMTP</a> can be used with any of the <a href="/software/email/">email clients we recommend</a>. This can be less secure as you are now relying on email providers to ensure that their encryption implementation works and has not been compromised in anyway.</p>
