Does anyone know if Verifyle should be included as a third party program for security enhancement?

Verifyle provides protected e mailing.

If I'm not mistaken, it's what you could use as a secure client portal but not a replacement for secure messaging or encrypted emails.

Came across that while searching for a solution for email encryption but there's not much by way of unbiased reviews or news articles, only releases, but the National Society of Accountants apparently partners with them to provide free access to their members.

Personally, I'd rather go with a provider that's more established or consider others that have more critical reviews.
