The Critical Need for Encrypted Email and File Transfer Solutions
Overview Email and file encryption are absolutely critical for a variety of reasons, including compliance with regulatory obligations to protect the integrity of sensitive data and best practices focused on maintaining the confidentiality of corporate data. However, most emails sent today - including those that contain highly sensitive content - are sent in clear text email. Similarly, most use of file transfer systems does not include encryption, leaving organizations exposed to a variety of negative consequences. However, the status quo must change. Because of increasing amounts of sensitive content that organizations are sending and storing in email, increasing corporate governance requirements, and the growing number of consequences associated with not encrypting email and other content, encryption has become a business and legal necessity.
