Data Tokenization for Email Security

Trustifi is the only company to offer this unique security protection layer for email security.  Instead of encrypting an entire email, only the sensitive information becomes replaced with a random string of characters, known as a token.

This innovative method maintains the clarity of the email while only encrypting the sensitive information, ensuring secure, and productive communication.

How Does Tokenization Simplify Email Security?

Tokenization by Trustifi allows a recipient to see your entire email, just like any other email, right from their inbox without having to decrypt or go through any additional steps

The tokenization technique involves generating a random sequence of numbers, known as a token, and associating them with potentially sensitive data like payment account numbers

Here is an example of the Trustifi data Tokenization Solution: 

SSN: [US_SOCIAL_SECURITY_NUMBER] - In place of numbers, it placed letters to obfuscate the data.
My driving license number: [DRIVERS_LICENSE_NUMBER] - The solution randomly placed numbers in place of the actual driver's license number.
Here is a visual of how it works: 

Data Tokenization Better Than Email Encryption?

Email messages are a vital part of our daily communication, but they can also be a security risk. Sensitive information, such as personal or financial information, can easily fall into the wrong hands if emails are intercepted or hacked

Tokenization by Trustifi allows a recipient to see your entire email, just like any other email, right from their inbox without having to decrypt or go through any additional steps

Traditionally, the solution to this problem has been to encrypt the entire email, making it only possible to open with a decryption method. But this method has its limitations

Encrypting the whole email can make it difficult to open, search and organize

It's just a click away if they need to see the sensitive information.
By tokenizing sensitive data, emails can be searched and organized as usual. Even if an unauthorized person were to gain access to the tokens, they could not access the original sensitive data.
Additionally, tokenization is a more efficient method of protecting sensitive data, as it doesn't add extra layers of encryption and decryption, which slows down communication.

In the event of an attack, personal information won’t be exposed and thus is less likely to be stolen. Although tokenization alone cannot prevent a breach, it can help minimize its consequences.

Compliance

Solving PCI Compliance Requirements With Tokenization

Tokenization helps reduce the PCI Scope specifically to DSS requirement #3 of protecting cardholder data at rest by eliminating the need to store such confidential information. So, this critical demand is fulfilled by never having such sensitive cardholder data reach your systems.

Industries subject to financial or privacy rules need more secure tokenization solutions to minimize the circulation of specific details while obfuscating critical data leaving the organization. Tokenization helps organizations show their commitment to compliance responsibility to their customers, regulators, and partners.

Tokenization trust architecture mitigates the financial damage businesses suffer from data loss.

Productivity

Improving Productivity and Open Rates with Data Tokenization

Email open rates are essential for organizations sending messages. Many factors come into play when considering the challenge of improving messaging opening and readership. Unattractive subject lines, time of day, and email encryption enabled affect open rate measurements. Ideally, organizations strive for a 17% to 25% open rate for each email message. The open rates will likely improve by enabling data tokenization in place of full message encryption. Users accessing the message without the need to log in to a separate site to decrypt the email is an essential benefit of data tokenization.
