Some use full disk encryption as a safeguard against the physical theft of drives or devices. Others use transparent data encryption to limit access to databases, or use network layer encryption to secure data as it travels within the organization's infrastructure. These approaches are good as far as they go, but they don't go very far. Like most other types of encryption, they address only certain locations or use cases and leave gaps on either end. Those gaps, of course, are where breaches happen.Effective encryption is persistent encryption that travels with the data itself, rather than protecting data only for a short segment of its lifecycle. When information is secured with persistent encryption, it can be shared and copied anywhere inside or outside a company's network while remaining inaccessible to unauthorized users.The problem with persistent encryption, at least in the past, was that it was very difficult to implement and manage. Encryption keys were hard to share and change, and the encryption process itself was disruptive and resource-intensive. So most organizations--even those who wanted to encrypt--had to settle for incomplete solutions.When a data breach happens, customers are only interested in the fact that their personal information was left unprotected. They don't want to hear that the breached company had other IT priorities, or that encryption wasn't easy to implement, or even that the data was encrypted somewhere else in the organization. The only thing that matters is that their financial information, personal details, or other sensitive data was left in the clear where it could be lost or stolen.The bottom line is, with big data transforming operations and unlocking new innovations and discoveries across industries, encryption will become more and more essential to our digital economy.Coming up with this edition has been a dive into the emerging trends pertaining to encryption, with insights from industry experts, and a glance into how the solution providers in the market are bringing the cutting edge tech into the enterprise world.
