email fax security
I am considering signing up for one of the email fax systems such as
MyFax. http://www.myfax.com/ In reading over the FAQs, I learned that MyFax uses the destination phone number as the email address. If I want to send a fax to 888-555-1212, I send an email to . If it's just a short message, I can type it in the email message. If it's a document, such as a Word document, I attach the document to the email. I am wondering how secure this is? Some of my documents are confidential and some of them are legally privileged. When they leave my machine and go out over the internet, those attachments are not encrypted, right? They will pass through a number of nodes enroute to myfax.com. Could some at one of the intermediate nodes look at the attachments? Thanks |
