Keeping Data Safe in Place and in Transit

43% of today’s cyber attacks are aimed at small and medium-sized businesses. At the same time, just 14% of those businesses are capable of defending their networks and data.

With the average cost of a data breach now close to $5 million, and with companies now having more access points to data than ever before, it’s critical to put in place measures to keep sensitive information and networks locked down.

Why Data Encryption Matters

Cyber criminals aren’t going anywhere. In fact, their methods are only going to get more creative and sophisticated. Without proper data encryption in place, businesses can easily find themselves on the wrong end of an attack.

The Power of Data Encryption

 

The numbers paint an ugly picture.

According to a study, 43% of today’s cyber attacks are aimed at small and medium-sized businesses. And yet, just 14% of those businesses are capable of defending their networks and data.

This is a major problem — not just for businesses targeted by cyber criminals, but also for the economy as a whole. Research from IBM finds that the average cost of a data breach reached an all-time high of $4.45 million in 2023. And a recent report from Apple and MIT found that in the first three quarters of last year alone, ransomware attacks increased by nearly 70%.

In short, stealing data is big business — and getting bigger. At the same time, access points to data have never been more prevalent — or vulnerable.

Given all this, it’s critical for businesses of all sizes to invest in data encryption.

FAQs

What is data encryption?
Data encryption is the process of converting readable data (plaintext) into an unreadable format (ciphertext) to protect it from unauthorized access.
Why is data encryption important?
Encryption ensures sensitive information like passwords, financial data, and personal details remain secure, even if intercepted or accessed without permission.
What are the types of data encryption?

  The two main types are symmetric encryption (one key for encryption and decryption) and asymmetric encryption (a public key for encryption and a private key for decryption).

Where is data encryption used?
Data encryption is used in securing emails, cloud storage, online transactions, devices, and networks to protect data at rest (stored) or in transit (being transmitted).
Is encrypted data completely secure?

While encryption significantly enhances security, it’s not foolproof. Strong encryption combined with good key management and security practices is essential to protect data effectively.
