About

    STEGA TRUST brings the trust layer email never had

    STEGA TRUST was born from the belief that digital identity should be provable, not guessed.

    Our mission

    Three non-negotiable principles

    Privacy by design

    Your emails stay on your device. Local computation, zero content transmitted. An architecture that protects your privacy by design.

    Built for your profession

    STEGA TRUST fits naturally into the everyday Microsoft 365 workflow of trusted businesses and professions. No habits to change, no added complexity.

    French company

    STEGA TRUST is a French-law company, subject to the GDPR.

    Design phase

    Laura and Reda combine product vision with cryptographic architecture. STEGA TRUST takes shape through their complementary expertise.

    Late 2025

    The conviction

    Business email remains the only communication channel without verifiable proof of identity. Facing rising fraud and NIS2 requirements, Laura and Reda decide to build what doesn't yet exist: cryptographic sender certification, native to Outlook.
