RPost Email Security Now Built into Acturis, Leading the UK Insurance Market

Acturis has Embedded RMail Email Encryption, E-Sign, and Registered Email™ E-Delivery Proof as Features Inside its Market Leading Insurance Management Platform, Simplifying GDPR Compliance

London, England – 14 November 2018 – RPost announces release of RMail email encryption, security, and compliance services, now available from within Acturis’ insurance management platform. Adding RMail into Acturis simplifies GDPR compliance for email privacy, adds Registered Email™ certified e-delivery proof for insurance notifications, and embeds e-signatures for insurance policy and claims processes. Acturis is the leading insurance management platform in the United Kingdom. RMail was identified as the top choice by the UK-based Association of Professional Compliance Consultants (APCC) for email privacy for GDPR compliance and awarded Germany’s Mittelstand award for innovation 2018.

“Acturis’ choice to add RPost into their application demonstrates the importance of RPost’s RMail services, considering today’s heightened awareness of security, compliance, and interest in using technology as a catalyst to improve business operations,” says RPost CEO Zafar Khan. “With customers in common, this integration also evidences Acturis’ ongoing commitment to improving the overall product experience for customers.” According to Acturis, the Acturis platform is the leading software service to the General Insurance Industry in the United Kingdom, with customers including Allianz, AXA, AVIVA, Chubb, and many others.

The integration between Acturis and RPost allows emails to be sent via RMail from within the Acturis application and improves the process of uploading an email sent via RMail to Acturis. Further, a new “Send Registered and Upload” button has been added to the Acturis Outlook Plugin to allow emails to be sent via RMail from Microsoft Outlook and Office 365, with automatic uploading to the Acturis application. RPost functionality is part of Acturis Release 7.4.1.

“Considering GDPR, the new European privacy compliance regulations, the timing is perfect,” adds Khan.

GDPR requires the handler of consumer non-public and personal information to maintain not only privacy of that information, but also the ability to demonstrate compliance with the privacy requirements. These requirements are discussed detail in GDPR Article 5 Clause 1(f) and 2, and Article 32 Clause 1(a) and 1(d) which focus on the requirement to protect personal data during transmission with the ability to demonstrate fact of protection of personal data. The RMail® Registered Receipt™ record provides this auditable proof of GDPR email privacy compliance, on a message-by-message basis.
