Configure Custom Branding

You can add your logo and colors to Virtru so your recipients see your brand. This step is optional, but it is a great way to ensure the external Virtru experience reflects your organization’s unique brand.

Phase 2: Notify Your Team, Partners, & Customers

Let your team in on the good news! Make sure they are aware that Virtru will be deployed, so they know what to expect. You'll also want to let your customers and partners know about any upcoming changes to their experience.

Notify Users of Upcoming Virtru Installation

Virtru is a key aspect of your security and compliance posture. Make sure your users know that it's available to them! Accounts that notify users prior to rollout typically see higher adoption rates and fewer post-release user questions.

Let Recipients Know What to Expect

It's easy for recipients (non-Virtru users) to access information shared with Virtru, but it is still different from opening a normal email. Customers who notify regular recipients in advance get fewer questions from their recipients post-rollout.
