Add Ability for Employee to Request Confidential Status for Email Address
I am requesting that the ability for employees to request that their email be marked as 'Confidential' from within Employee Access be added.
The expectation would be for this to function exactly as all of the other confidential requests function -- it would be just be an additional area to make the request.
I have attached a mockup of how this could look.
Rationale: Phishing attacks are on the rise, and it is more important than ever to close all potential attack vectors. We remind our employees that they can request to have their email marked as confidential by HR staff, but we find than many often forget to do this -- they DO make requests for address and phone confidentiality from Employee Access, but when they do not see an option for Email, they stop there and do not make the additional request.
We feel that offering this additional option to employees will help to keep our systems more secure.

Hello! Good News – In Employee Access, employees will be able to request that their email addresses be marked as confidential. You will need to make sure you change your Request Change Setup settings under Employee Access Configurations to allow make changes to confidentiality flag for emails. You will be able to choose from Auto-Approve, Approval Needed, Read-Only or Hide. This functionality will be available on the 05.21.02.00.04 addendum release going out on 03/18/2021. Thank you and have a great day!
