Data and communications encryption are often the responsibility of data center managers. Legislation like Sarbanes-Oxley, PCI DSS, HIPAA, Gramm-Leach-Bliley, and others are forcing enterprises in all industries to encrypt their data. In addition, growing demands from consumer privacy advocates will one day affect database and mobile security for all companies. Assess the enterprise's need and state of readiness for data encryption by:
- Understanding the main business drivers behind encryption deployment.
- Conducting a readiness assessment for data encryption solutions.
- Understanding the key considerations when adopting encryption.
Do not allow the enterprise to suffer the financially devastating effects of a data breach. Determine if data encryption is a fit for the company's critical information.
