Chaperoned emails inbox

You're referring to a feature in some email providers that allows you to set up a "chaperoned" or "monitored" inbox, where emails are reviewed and approved by a designated person or administrator before they are delivered to your actual inbox.

This feature is often used in organizations, especially in industries that require strict compliance with regulations, such as finance, healthcare, or government. It helps ensure that sensitive or confidential information is not accidentally sent to the wrong person or outside the organization.

Here are some benefits of using a chaperoned inbox:

  1. Improved security: By reviewing emails before they are delivered, you can prevent sensitive information from being leaked or compromised.
  2. Compliance: Chaperoned inboxes can help organizations meet regulatory requirements, such as HIPAA or PCI-DSS, by ensuring that sensitive data is handled properly.
  3. Reduced risk: By having a designated person review emails, you can reduce the risk of accidental or unauthorized disclosure of confidential information.
  4. Increased accountability: Chaperoned inboxes provide a clear audit trail, making it easier to track who has accessed or reviewed sensitive information.

Some email providers that offer chaperoned inbox features include:

  1. Microsoft 365 (formerly Office 365)
  2. Google Workspace (formerly G Suite)
  3. ProtonMail
  4. Tutanota
  5. Zoho Workplace

If you're interested in setting up a chaperoned inbox, you can contact your email provider's support team or administrator to learn more about the process and any specific requirements or restrictions that may apply.
