Securapro disk encryption

Mobile workers are at risk – hard disk encryption protects data in the event that a laptop is stolen.

 
 
 
 

Consider:

In January 2008 a Royal Navy officer had a laptop stolen that contained the personal data of 600,000 people.

The data included bank account and passport details; national insurance and NHS numbers; and home addresses. The hard disk was not encrypted.

 

In May 2009 a laptop computer with details of 109,000 people was stolen from offices in Marlow in Buckinghamshire. The the data was not encrypted and included names, addresses, dates of birth, employer data, national insurance numbers, salaries and bank details.

 

Over 400 laptops lost at London airports in 2007. A Ponemon Institute report in 2008 found that 49% of European business travellers said their laptops contained confidential information and 42% said their data was not backed up, or encrypted

 

Securapro Disk Encryption

Product overview

UK businesses are dependent on IT systems, and with more mobile workers the issue of data security has never been higher. What happens to your valuable data if you lose your laptop, or it gets stolen?

The consequences can be severe, especially for those working in the financial services sector; a loss of confidential data could breach compliance rules and regulations and result in a large fine. Full disk encryption ensures that if you lose your laptop you will not lose your data.

Sensitive data, such as customer information, is a valuable business resource and as such is more vulnerable than ever. Technology allows employees to become more mobile, which increases the risks.

Regulatory compliance

Regulatory and governance requirements are an increasingly important driver in the need to protect sensitive data. Companies are being required to disclose breaches that place Personal Identifi able Information (PII) at risk, be it from a customer, employee, shareholder, partner, or other stakeholder prospective.

In response to growing concerns over individuals’ privacy, and the threat of identity theft, we have witnessed the introduction of a complex array of privacy regulations in recent years, such as the EU Data Privacy Directive and the Data Protection Act. In addition, professional bodies like the Financial Services Authority (FSA) and the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (ICAEW) have introduced a host of compliance regulations and initiatives.
