large corporations and banks should digitally sign all email
To protect UK citizens from fraudulent emails and data lose, large corporations and especially banks should sign their email with a certificate. This would prevent end users from "phising" attacks and reduce cyber crime.
My bank emailed me explaining how to spot an fraudulent email. This seems ridiculous as signing emails with certificates has been for many years. HTTPS was created to protect online shoppers while shopping however all businesses communicate and banks communicate via email which has not been secured.
Signing an email is the simplest and most cost effective process that will make people's lives easier and protect our citizens.
email clients could have "green bar" like the browsers do.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
You seem to be asking for banks and large corporations to choose to take this action.
If you would like Parliament to pass a law requiring them to do so, you could start a petition about that.
