Former National Security Agency security cloud expert Will Ackerly has co-founded a new company called Virtru, a company that promises to truly encrypt emails. The company has launched a product called Trusted Data Format, an email encryption tool that was designed with Ackerly's NSA experience in mind. The system is focused on transmitted secure email across major email clients, including Gmail, Yahoo, and Outlook. The tool encrypts contents on a user's device then sends the communication to the recipient leaving the encryption key out of the message.
