15 Minutes to Complete Data Protection
In this white paper, you will better understand:
- The benefits of data encryption
- Where to encrypt your company’s data
- How to implement a cost effective security architecture
As well as, real examples of companies that have applied these data protection strategies and the positive effects they’ve had on their organizations. See what CipherOptics can do for you.
 It’s 10 o’clock. Do you know where your data is? If you think for just a moment, you’ll realize that
it could be anywhere in the world and you have no idea if it is protected or vulnerable. Your
personal information is somewhere at your bank, sent over the Internet when you buy a book or
CD online, and stored at your health insurance company, not to mention state, local and federal
government agencies. Whether it’s the potential of embarrassment or financial ruination,
shouldn’t your private information remain secret? A slew of government regulations imply that it
should. And yet, the security breaches keep coming. ChoicePoint, a name made famous by a
huge breach in early 2005, has become a rallying point for organizations to re-examine their
approach to data security.
A simple Google search verifies that there is a growing market for sensitive, personal information.
And with information like Social Security numbers, bank account and credit card numbers and
corporate intellectual property widely available, it’s time for organizations that house and use that
data to get serious about protecting it.
As your customers trust their most important information to you, protecting networks with
firewalls, intrusion detection and ID management are essential first steps but protecting the data
itself is the true goal. After all, because most network data is dynamic, it can be moving around
the network at any given time. How do you approach securing that dynamic data? According to
best practices espoused by top security experts, encrypting the data in motion over the network is
key to protecting it. Once encrypted, when an unauthorized person is able to access it, customer
records would be useless to them and your business would be protected. As organizations
integrate encryption into their best practices for protecting data and complying with regulations,
they often encounter highly complex, time-intensive and expensive solutions that, while protecting
data, degrade network and application performance. Perhaps it’s time to take a better approach
to encryption as a means of data protection...
