How To Send a Secure Email

NOTE: You must submit a request and be approved before access to the secure email system will be granted. To request access, please contact your authorized requestor:

  • Hospital staff should contact the Hospital HelpDesk (TRC) at 913-588-4894
  • KUPI and University staff should contact the authorized account requestor within their department

After you are registered to use the system, there are two ways to send a secure, encrypted email:

  1. Add the word "[secure]" at the beginning of the subject line of the email as shown below. Be sure to include the brackets but do not include the quote marks). Putting the word [secure] anywhere other than the beginning of the subject line will not encrypt the message.

    ** NOTE:  The subject line of the email is not encrypted; therefore, you should not include sensitive information in subject line of the email.
