# S/MIME Email Security
|
||||
|
||||
Secure/Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (S/MIME) allows you to **sign** and **encrypt** internal emails.
|
||||
Secure/Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (S/MIME) allows you to **sign** (prove identity) and **encrypt** (protect content) email messages.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Signing**: Proves the email actually came from you (prevents spoofing).
|
||||
- **Encryption**: Ensures only the intended recipient can read the message.
|
||||
<Callout type="warning" emoji={<BadgeAlert className="w-5 h-5" />}>
|
||||
**Internal Use Only:**
|
||||
TrustLab certificates are private. If you send signed emails to **External Recipients** (e.g., Gmail, Yahoo), they will see an "Untrusted/Invalid Signature" warning because they do not trust the TrustLab Root CA.
|
||||
|
||||
**Use this for internal corporate communication only.**

||||
