Cyber attacks and the stealing of sensitive data has been big business for hackers and cybercriminals. Especially due to the disruptive covid-19 pandemic that has pushed workers to work from home. The BYOD strategy has caused major concerns for businesses, and to the Managed Service Providers who are hired to protect them. It is not all bad news though, with the introduction of an advanced email encryption software. Today, more security layers are needed to be put in place in order to protect business data and communications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Email Encryption: A must have<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s first talk about the (obvious) reasons as to why SMBs need email encryption. Firstly, to have the ability to securely share<\/strong> sensitive information. When using email, its not as secure as you would think, and offers no real privacy. Of course, we would need encryption in order to avoid data leaks<\/strong> that could ruin a small business. Whether its financial records, client information, or confidential information \u2013 all are at risk of being nabbed by hackers. Email compliance <\/strong>is crucial, especially for businesses operating within the EU, or doing business with those that are a part of the European Union due to GDPR regulations. SMBs that are caught violating GDPR requirements when it comes to protecting user information could be subject to major fines. Businesses have to be mindful when selecting an encryption software. The right software should be able to meet all, or most of the requirements set by the organization. It\u2019s not just about price, there are plenty of factors that SMBs will consider when choosing the right service. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
