E-mail Encryption

We strongly urge you to encrypt sensitive information sent by email. Our public PGP key is available from this site.

Why use e-mail encryption in communicating with counsel?

"Carnivore was designed to help law enforcement officers determine who receives a suspect's e-mail and who sends e-mail to the suspect, but it can also be programmed to capture whole messages. The technology has been criticized partly because it samples the communications of the innocent, as well as the accused. But if Carnivore, which is formally called DCS-1000, encounters communications that have been encrypted, the F.B.I. is unable to read the messages."
