PreVeil
Boston, Massachusetts, United States
What it is
PreVeil provides end-to-end encrypted email and file sharing for defense and regulated industries. PreVeil Drive stores and shares encrypted files with controls for viewing, editing, and commenting. Email works with Outlook, Gmail, Apple Mail, browsers, and mobile devices, while Drive integrates with Windows File Explorer and Mac Finder. Drive is also available through a browser and iOS or Android apps. PreVeil says encryption occurs on users’ devices and only recipients can decrypt the data, so the company cannot read it. Its authentication uses cryptographic keys instead of passwords, and Approval Groups distribute administrative trust among multiple approvers. The platform is designed to support CMMC, NIST SP 800-171, ITAR, DFARS, HIPAA, the FTC Safeguards Rule, and CJIS requirements. DFARS-, CMMC-, or ITAR-subject data is stored in AWS GovCloud in the U.S.; other data uses AWS Commercial Cloud. Basic is free with 5 GB encrypted storage. Paid plans include Individual at $25 a month, Business at $30 a month, and PreVeil Pass at $450 a month.
