What it is
PreVeil provides end-to-end encrypted email and file sharing for defense and regulated industries. PreVeil Drive stores and shares encrypted files, with controls for viewing, editing, and commenting. Email works with Outlook, Gmail, Apple Mail, browsers, and mobile devices; Drive integrates with Windows File Explorer and Mac Finder, and is also available in a browser and iOS and Android apps. PreVeil says data is encrypted on users’ devices and only recipients can decrypt it. It replaces passwords with cryptographic keys and uses Approval Groups to distribute administrative trust among multiple approvers. The company says its platform is designed to support CMMC, NIST SP 800-171, ITAR, DFARS, HIPAA, the FTC Safeguards Rule, and CJIS requirements. Data subject to DFARS, CMMC, or ITAR is stored in AWS GovCloud in the U.S.; other data is stored in AWS Commercial Cloud. A free Basic plan includes 5 GB of encrypted storage. Paid plans include Individual at $25 a month, requiring annual payments, and Business at $30 a month per user, with monthly billing available.
