Your profession. Your data risks.
Your exact threat.
Every profession has specific data they must transmit securely — and specific legal consequences when they don't. Find your exact use case below.
Software Engineering & DevOps
The #1 source of production breaches: credentials in Slack. API keys, .env files, SSH keys, AWS credentials — all need zero-trace delivery.
Real risk: A leaked AWS key can trigger $50,000/hour crypto-mining charges within minutes.
Legal & Compliance
Attorney-client privilege is destroyed the moment a confidential document touches an unencrypted email server. ABA Model Rule 1.6 requires reasonable security.
Real risk: Lawyers face malpractice claims and bar complaints for unsecured client communication.
Healthcare & Medical
HIPAA requires encrypted transmission for all Protected Health Information. Fines range from $100 to $50,000 per violation — and email is never HIPAA-compliant.
Real risk: A single unencrypted email containing PHI is a reportable HIPAA breach.
Finance & Crypto
Wire transfer instructions intercepted in transit. Pitch decks forwarded to competitors. Seed phrases stored in Gmail. Finance professionals face irreversible losses.
Real risk: The average Business Email Compromise (BEC) fraud loss is $120,000 — and funds are almost never recovered.
HR & Recruiting
Salary data leaked internally destroys morale. SSNs in email create identity theft liability. Background checks emailed to the wrong recipient triggers FCRA violations.
Real risk: GDPR fines for mishandling employee data reach 4% of global annual revenue.
Executive & C-Level
Board decks with unreported earnings. M&A term sheets. Strategy documents. Every email is a potential SEC violation, competitive leak, or shareholder lawsuit.
Real risk: A pre-announcement earnings leak triggers Regulation FD violations and SEC investigation.
Marketing & Sales
Ad account credentials shared via Slack. CRM exports emailed to contractors. Customer lists forwarded beyond authorized recipients. Every action creates GDPR liability.
Real risk: Customer data breaches cost an average of $164 per record affected — plus regulatory fines.
Freelancers & Agencies
Freelancers hold client credentials in their personal email — the highest-risk position. When their account is compromised, every client they've ever served is at risk.
Real risk: A freelancer's compromised Gmail account can expose dozens of client systems simultaneously.
