|Scenario Task Description=To send or not to send - that is the question! And it is not a rhetorical one: email is an all consuming part of our digital lives, but it is also very ancient, and in the years its 30-year-old design hasn't improved much in terms of security.
Email is basically made of two parts: the body , with the content of the message , and the header, with information on the author of the email, the person it has been sent to, the time when it was sent, etc. All this [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metadata metadata] can be gathered from email records and turned into a pattern, as can be seen on [https://immersion.media.mit.edu/ the Immersion project from MIT]. The content of the messages, on the other hand, can be protected, and the various questions you may have about how to secure your email are answered in this section.<br />
Other good introductory guides to email security include the [https://en.flossmanuals.net/basic-internet-security/ch022_introduction-to-email-safety Introduction to email safety] from Floss Manuals and the multi-lingual [https://securityinabox.org/en/guide/secure-communication secure communications] chapter of the Security in a box project.
