FreeMark Initiative™ Overview
Launched on July 4th registration to become a member of the FreeMark Initiative™ is free and available now at www.boldonjames.com/freemark. The FreeMark Edition is freely available as a download and key functions include:

One-step Labelling: A simple, familiar Microsoft Outlook drop-down from which users select an email classification label. A default label can be set with the option to automatically enforce labelling, thereby automating compliance with information assurance policies.

Visual Labels: Configurable markings are applied to Microsoft Outlook messages, raising user awareness of the value and sensitivity of the message information to both sender and receiver.

Automated Protection: The label choice can be used to directly invoke email protection at the desktop in the form of a Microsoft Windows Rights Management (RMS) policy or S/MIME encryption and digital signing. In addition, metadata labels are applied to the email Internet x-headers, enabling other email filtering, encryption, rights management and archiving actions to automatically be applied based on the label value. Corporate security is implemented without users needing to take any action other than to send an email with an appropriate label.
