CST VerdictBased on our analysis of NIST CSF 2.0 coverage, core features, integrations, company size fit, here is our conclusion:
Teams managing Gmail across startups and mid-market companies need CloudMask Secure Gmail if Gmail's native encryption doesn't satisfy your data residency or key control requirements; the tool keeps encryption keys entirely out of CloudMask's hands, which matters for regulated industries where Google's infrastructure alone won't pass audit. The user-controlled key model aligns with NIST CSF 2.0 Data Security principles by giving you genuine confidentiality control rather than relying on vendor promises. Skip this if your organization needs encryption across multiple email providers or requires formal key escrow for recovery scenarios; CloudMask is Gmail-only and doesn't solve for employees using Outlook or on-premises Exchange.
Mid-market and enterprise teams that need to move sensitive files outside email will find FTAPI Platform's zero-knowledge architecture and 100 GB attachment capacity genuinely useful, especially where GDPR compliance matters; the German data center residency and automated key exchange eliminate the certificate-management friction that kills adoption on competing platforms. The E2E encryption across SecuMails, SecuRooms, and SecuForms covers the three workflows where encryption actually breaks down in practice. Skip this if your primary need is detection and response; FTAPI covers data security and asset management but leaves incident response largely to you.
