In this episode I discuss how encryption supports compliance as well as effectively protects personal information. Encryption is an under-utilized security tool. Considering the infinite number of today’s risks, threats and vulnerabilities, encryption can effectively keep unauthorized individuals and systems from accessing sensitive information and thwart many types of attacks. In today’s business environment with sensitive information being stored in multiple locations, many of them mobile, encrypting information is an effective privacy safeguard organizations can add to their arsenal of safeguard tools. I also discuss incidents that occurred and how the laws, regulations, and regulatory bodies encourage the use of encryption.
