Mailprotector vs Paubox Email Encryption

Mailprotector makes email security and management products exclusively for managed service providers. Shield combines a secure email gateway with an API integration for Microsoft 365 environments; the company says Google Workspace support is on the horizon. CloudFilter filters email where customers control MX records, including Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, on-premises servers, hosted environments and POP/IMAP. Bracket encrypts messages when a subject contains square brackets, without requiring apps, plugins or passwords from senders or recipients. It uses AES-256, and its one-time sign-in links expire after 15 minutes or become invalid if opened from another device. SecureStore captures messages going forward and has a seven-year default retention period, which can be adjusted. Mailprotector states that it holds the HIPAA Seal of Compliance from Compliancy Group and is SOC 2 Type 2 certified. ConnectWise, Autotask and Gradient integrations support licensing or service-count synchronization and billing workflows, and are free. Radar is a free email security check; current product pricing is available from an account manager.

Paubox Email Encryption is a web service for sending protected email, presented through its healthcare solution. Delivery uses a link, and recipients verify access with a password. Outlook and Gmail integrations are included, along with administrator access controls. Messages do not expire, and attachments have a listed limit of 150. Paubox has no free plan, but offers a 14-day trial. Its three plans are billed annually and cover up to five senders: Standard costs $29 a month, Plus costs $59 a month, and Premium costs $69 a month. The pricing note gives a starting price of $29/mo on an annual term. Buyers can compare the plan levels while considering link-based delivery, password verification, supported mail integrations, and the administrative controls available for a small sender group.
