About

The Virtru for Outlook add-in enables end users to encrypt and decrypt messages from within Microsoft Outlook, creating a seamless user experience. The add-in not only handles encryption of emails, but it can also handle decryption of previously encrypted emails. As the administrator of an organization, there are a couple different ways to deploy Virtru to your team.

Virtru for Outlook is compatible with:

• Outlook (Windows desktop) versions 2010 and above

Deployment Options 

There are two use cases associated with the Deployment of the Virtru Outlook Add-in:

User Based

In a user based installation, the application is installed within the specific user profile and is only available to that user. In these cases, the user will need to install (and uninstall) the standard (perUser build) of the application.

Machine Based

In a machine based installation, Virtru is installed by an endpoint "Administrator". In these cases, a perMachine build is used, which is scriptable and can be used with automation tools or endpoint management tools.
