NEED FOR EMAIL ENCRYPTION AT ITS PEAK
Because email has become the most prevalent tool for communication and collaboration by businesses and
government, it has never been more vital to protect the flow of confidential private and company
information transmitted via this medium. In the millions of messages sent weekly, content (including
attachments) inevitably contains data that is private. In every organization, HR, finance, legal, executives,
and other critical functions send email that is confidential at a minimum.
Based on the growing volumes of confidential and sensitive information traversing networks on a daily
basis, regulatory bodies and business executives have turned their concerns to ensuring messaging is
protected from unauthorized viewing. Regulations such as Sarbanes-Oxley, PCI, HIPAA, GLBA and others
have been introduced to mandate that email messages containing sensitive or confidential data are
handled securely.
With the increasing reliance on email, email encryption has emerged as a vital aspect of an overall email
security solution to secure confidential data and yet continue to allow the free flow of email
communications between colleagues, customers, and partners.
