Egress is a secure email and file sharing solution developed by Egress Software Technologies Ltd, currently available in version 24.08.1833, which is the single version listed for the product. The software is categorized as a Microsoft Outlook add-in for secure email and file sharing, and it is designed to protect data directly within the email environment where users already work. According to its description, Egress Email Protection is a free Microsoft Outlook add-in that helps users secure their data whenever they need it most, applying protection at the point where messages and attachments are created and sent. Its core capabilities include encrypted email, secure file sharing, and access controls, all of which are applied directly inside Outlook rather than through a separate application or workflow. This integration means that encryption and access management become part of the standard emailing process, allowing senders to protect sensitive content and control who can open or use shared files without leaving their inbox. Typical use cases center on situations in which confidential information must be transmitted by email or shared as attachments, since the add-in is intended to safeguard that data through encryption and to enforce access restrictions on the files being distributed. Because the protection is embedded in Outlook, it is suited to organizations and individuals that rely on Microsoft Outlook as their primary email client and that need a straightforward way to add security to everyday communications. The product is published by Egress Software Technologies Ltd, and version 24.08.1833 represents the current release of the software. With its combination of encrypted email, secure file sharing, and access controls delivered through a free Outlook add-in, Egress Email Protection fits within the email security and data protection category, addressing the need to keep sensitive information protected during transmission and after it reaches its recipients.
