For the average consumer, data theft equates to the threat of having personal information stolen, bank records and maybe credit card details.  This can allow hackers to perpetrate identity fraud and whilst it can cause significant harm against an individual there are now a great many countermeasures in place to try to protect against date theft in an individual perspective.

However, for corporations there exists a real and identifiable threat.  This threat exists not only from hackers, but also from former employees and that bears a grudge or grievance against the company.  With the advent of digital storage and the popularity of road warriors, highly sensitive data is travelling a lot more than it should and we are now being exposed to the risks of data loss as well.

For many corporations, the thought about data security does not go beyond a firewall and an IT support team that are supposed to know what they are doing.  The truth is many IT teams in today’s corporate world are complacent in their methodology often using redundant technologies, which ultimately means more expense for the corporation.

How do you eliminate the risks of data theft? It is quite simple – you eliminate the value of that data by using technologies to ensure that if third parties may have a chance to acquire it, then it will be worthless.

Gold Line Group Ltd. works with IT executives to develop secure policies that ensure cryptography is not merely a buzzword technology, but a vital and lifesaving way to ensure accountability and also mitigate any losses.
