Computing system with an email privacy filter and related methods

Last updated:

Abstract:

A computing system includes a server comprising email policy rules to be applied to emails containing sensitive information, a mail server to provide the emails, and a client computing device enrolled with the server to access the mail server. An email privacy filter is to be applied to emails from the mail server intended for the client computing device. The email privacy filter interfaces with the server to receive the email policy rules therefrom. The email privacy filter identifies sensitive information within the email. The email privacy filter then applies the email policy rules, in response to identification of sensitive information within the email, to determine if the email is to be hidden from view on the client computing device so as to prevent display of the sensitive information to an unauthorized viewer.
