Why is encryption important for organizations?
Encryption is essential for organizations to protect sensitive data and comply with various regulations such as PCI DSS, HIPAA, and GDPR. With the increasing number of data breaches and the volume of data generated—projected to reach 79 zettabytes in 2021 and double by 2025—encryption helps safeguard customer privacy and minimizes the impact of potential breaches.
How does Symantec Encryption enhance data security?

These tools ensure data protection at rest, in use, and in motion, while also automating key management and policy controls. The architecture is designed for scalability, making it suitable for large enterprise environments.
What challenges do organizations face with data security?
Organizations face several challenges, including the risk of lost or stolen devices, which can lead to costly data breaches. Additionally, the use of cloud sync and share services increases the likelihood of unintentional data leaks. Legacy data transfer systems are also vulnerable, lacking built-in security measures, which makes it crucial for organizations to implement robust encryption solutions.
