Our enterprise uses Zix to provide seamless in-line encryption for sensitive content. We love the ease of use for our end-users as well as the rule-based automation. Interactions with support have been very responsive and knowledgeable. Overall the best feature is the integration with 3rd party tools such as MS Outlook, which provide users a push-button ease of use.

Our entire business is using Zix to avoid spam and phishing assaults on all of our email domains. Other widely used software was giving much too many false positives while still enabling harmful stuff to pass through. Almost all of the concerns have been handled by Zix.

Zix is being utilized by our entire organization, across all of our various email domains to prevent spam and phishing attacks. We were using another "industry standard" program that was providing way too many false positives while still allowing malicious content through. Zix has resolved almost all of those issues.

We are a healthcare non-profit. We have to comply with various security regulations including HIPAA, PCI, FERPA, etc. We needed a solution to be used across the entire organization. Zix automatically scans each outgoing message and ensures that protect information is encrypted or in the case of PCI, the information is quarantined and never is delivered.

It's being used primarily by unions who have to deal with the personal information of their members to protect such things as medical claims, etc. Users rely upon automatic rules-based encryption of email to comply with HIPAA and their insurance requirements.

We are a small employee benefit brokerage and we all use Zix. We deal heavily in PHI(personal health information) along with SS#'s and everything else it takes to enroll in insurance. Transferring that date securely and easily is a huge relief.

Zix is used by all county offices as a way to ensure sensitive information is kept secure at a time when it is least thought about, through email. Most staff believe their email systems are secure; Zix ensures it. Using the preconfigured filter lexicons, Zix ensures medical, staffing, and other personal or sensitive information is secured by automatically encrypting the information before it sends it to an outside party. It is great to have the peace of mind that our information is automatically being reviewed before being sent.

Zix is being used to Encrypt our emil system. Working with the staff was a smooth transition and an easy implementation process. The techs worked with me and gave me the support that we needed. The encryption system is very robust and easy to use for our end users.

We purchased and use Zix for TWO main reasons: to enhance email threat protection, and to have a HIPAA-compliant solution for sending secure emails to our patients. The problems are resolved are reduced risk of cheap cyber attacks like phishing, malware or ransomware. The other issue resolved is our inability to send PHI out via email securely and in compliance with HIPAA.

We use Zix for web content filtering, as well as for outbound encryption for keeping sensitive information save, and to make sure that emails are not forwarded to unintended additional recipients. We have used Zix for 5 plus years, on both an internal Exchange server, as well as for Office 365 through the Zix gateway using Smart Host connectors to Office 365.

Zix is being used by my company to address the need for secure, encrypted emails, both with our partners who are also in the Zix network, and externally with third parties and clients who are outside of the Zix network. Zix also provides us with a comprehensive spam filtering package that filters emails, and tests any links clicked from within an email by our users.

We are dealing with a healthcare company that requires HIPAA compliance and this was the easier way to effect that across email. We are able to effect protection of all the areas covered by the regulator with minimal interference by us and ease of use for the users and recipients of the encrypted emails. The rules are standard so it was as simple as switching them on without any additional configuration from our side. In addition to this it was extremely easy to set up trigger words that would encrypt the email if required even if it did not have HIPAA-specific information in it.

We currently use Zix to ensure that sensitive data is encrypted when sent via email. Our entire organization uses it, as all e-mail gets relayed through the system to check for PII or other data. Given that we do a lot of work with financial and medical information, it is extremely important for us to have a solution that guarantees privacy protection.

Zix, as you know, is an email gateway solution that helps prevent spam along with some DLP functions. In today's business spam is so abundant and constant that it not only becomes a security concern, but also an issue in terms of resource management. Zix helps our business in this regard.

We are a medical laboratory and Zix is used to send patient reports to physicians used internally as a whole and recommended for use across our entire sales force. We use the platform that scans emails for PHI and encrypts based on what it finds; or you can force encryption. Although, because it automatically checks for encryption when it goes through the Zix portal, my employees are apprehensive as we do not get a confirmation in any way as to what was encrypted for not, which has significantly slowed the trust and usage of the software - employees are still going to our old provider to send the emails they know need to be encrypted.
