PostGuard is an add-on for Outlook and Thunderbird that offers free and easy-to-use end-to-end encryption for emails and a website to share encrypted files effortlessly. PostGuard is based on identity-based encryption and utilizes the IRMA app to ensure only the intended recipient can decrypt a file. I have worked on PostGuard as one of the project leads and as a supervisor of the involved PhD students. PostGuard can be found online at https://postguard.nl. The code is on GitHub: https://github.com/encryption4all. We also published a paper about the concept.
