How Secure Email Works

To ensure the confidentiality and integrity of private information that needs to be exchanged through email, and in order to comply with financial regulations, Republic Bank has implemented an encryption email service through Mimecast Secure Messaging.

Mimecast Secure Messaging allows businesses to send encrypted email. The secure message is password-protected and can only be opened by authorized recipients who authenticate themselves. If you are a first-time recipient receiving a password-protected secure message, you will receive a second email with your temporary password. Upon the first login you will be required to change your temporary password.

Due to the confidential nature of many messages, it is important to Republic Bank that we ensure that your information remains private. This site is designed to help you understand how Mimecast Secure Messaging works, and why sending an email through secure channels is a better option than using a standard messaging platform.

When we send you a secure message, you will receive a notification email with instructions on how to open the message. The notification message arrives in your email Inbox. Open the email and click on the link labeled Secure Messaging Service.
