Virtru Email Encryption

Virtru makes client-side email encryption easier than ever. Set it up in just a minute using your existing email address, and flip a switch to encrypt only the emails that need encryption. Your emails and any file attachments can only be decrypted by the people you authorize.
Use Virtru to meet HIPAA, CJIS, CFPB, or other compliance regulations, or to simply ensure that third party providers can never access your sensitive content.

Virtru is easy for your recipients, too–they don't need to install anything to read and reply to your emails. And if they want to send their own secure emails, they can download one of Virtru’s free apps or plugs-in to unlock a variety of features:


• Client-side email and file encryption. Messages are encrypted before they leave your phone.


• You authorize who has access to your content. No one else can decrypt.


• Send to anyone. No manual key exchange, no portals, no new passwords.


• Revoke access to messages and attachments even after they've been opened.


• Set expiration dates for your messages.


• See and control where your messages are forwarded.


• View real-time read receipts to see when recipients have accessed your encrypted messages.


• Helps enable CJIS, HIPAA, CFPB, and FERPA compliance.

Virtru also works on your desktop with free plug-ins for Chrome, Firefox, and Microsoft Outlook.

While the basic UI gets the job done it does leave a bit to be desired. My main problem with this app is that it is constantly running in the background and my phone is always yelling at me to manually shut the app down. Sometimes if you do not manually shut it down, you receive a system notification that "Virtru has stopped working". This is annoying and obtrusive to the workflow.

One of the first permission questions to set up the App is a bit daunting. Looking for clarity before I agree to let Virtru "read, compose, send and permanently delete all emails." Does this mean emails will be deleted prior to using Virtru or while using it?

won't let me activate my account. definitely needs some updates it just spins and spins then tells me to try again or delete

like that message is secure...wish it can be personalized not only for business users

Ros. J. Nov 28, 2018     

Lo ks me out often....can't send secure emails

Ric. W. Sep 20, 2019     

Nothing but trouble. I hate it.

Luc. A. B. Oct 22, 2019     

You stopped updates?

Pat. B. Oct 24, 2018     

No multi-account handling. Doesn't show which email account is used. No feedback function despite 'feedback' being written. Nothing improved the last 2 years. Very poor for a service I pay a yearly fee for.

Why must I use my cell phone to write a Virtru Email? Your program will not download on my desktop PC, I can answer one but not create.

Fre. K. Jul 27, 2018     

Tried to install this several times to work with my Google email account, but kept getting Server Connection Failure during installation. Accessing my Gmail from the Gmail app and from Blue Mail, works fine. I have a Nexus 6 and Android 6.01 Addended: On 7/26 they sent me note that App had been fixed. I downloaded it and works fine with Android 7.1 on Nexus y

Stops working after every update. Seems to work, but no new messages arrive. ---- Update 2018.06.27 Problems does not appear on current updated version. Like. 5 stars - Love it 4 stars - Like it I didnt fell in love, sorry. :)

After more than three years of zero development this app continues to be a pig to use, even something as simple as deleting e-mail has to be done one - at - a - time with no option to select multiple messages. The service itself is good it's such a pity that the app is so badly designed.

Ugliest interface I've seen in a while.

Kri. A. Jul 24, 2017     

Bad s/w. does not refresh mails nor gives notification. Forced refesh does not load new messages either.

Mat. R. Sep 10, 2017     

Easy to turn on/off encryption. Will prompt you if sensitive data is detected. Easy for recipients to access encrypted message.

Chr. P. Jul 16, 2017     

Was working ok but now its only intermittently sending (recipients inform me they did not receive email) and receiving emails (I am not receiving recipient email replys). What happened?

A. G. u. Sep 1, 2017     

Sends a activation confirmation email, but then keeps "trying to activate"...on and on. No way to use it, which still ks because it's great in the desktop.

Bil. A. Jan 26, 2017     

I have been using this product for several years on Gmail and recently with Outlook. Support is excellent and solved my problem. Very easy to setup. .

The ease of use and security features are vital to modern digital communication

Mic. M. Feb 22, 2017     

Easy to use

Les. I. Dec 19, 2016     

Excellent in both Android and Windows. Works seamlessly in Gmail.

Pau. C. Nov 14, 2016     

Needs multiple account management. If there's a way of doing so from within the app it escapes me. Please advise.

Jam. S. Jul 2, 2016     

Ability to attach files, not just pictures, would be great. Also, people can't secure reply via mobile without downloading the app—gives an error when trying. An overhaul to Material design is needed also.

Dia. V. Apr 2, 2016     

Uses a ridiculous amount of data when I'm not even actively using it, and there's no way to turn it off because it runs automatically.

Joe. Mar 23, 2016     

Wish it would support multiple accounts is all.

Bre. H. Feb 10, 2016     

I find that this app is hard on battery usage. % of power usage is far more than the app need require, hopefully this will get resolved in very near future.

Gbe. N. Dec 12, 2015     

Works Great on my Galaxy S2 but would also like it on my phone. I get the activation message, but then it stops and gives me the opportunity to report the problem to Google. Will try to uninstall and try again, then update this review after that.UPDATE: still won't activate after uninstalling and reinstalling. Can this be installed on two different devices for the same email account?

War. R. Dec 29, 2015     

Nice product once it is set up. A few more features will make it great for email control. Customer support was great.

Cas. J. Dec 11, 2015     

Works great, please consider reworking the icon to look like an envelope please.
