Google is rolling out end-to-end encrypted email for Gmail enterprise users, expanding a concrete security capability to messages sent to any email service or platform. The feature uses client-side encryption (CSE) and gives non-Gmail recipients a restricted access path through a guest account, reducing the need for key exchange or custom software. The rollout is expected to reach Enterprise Plus customers with the Assured Controls add-on over the next two weeks.
