Yahoo is joining the campaign to secure your emails by next year. The company’s chief information security officer Alex Stamos said they will offer users the option to send end-to-end encrypted emails by 2015 through a browser plugin. Stamos said Yahoo will bootstrap plugin with Google’s own browser extension to encrypt emails and they will make the two services compatible.
