 (Always) start by asking “why”

When you embark on an encryption project, the first question to ask is always: why?

Managing the confidentiality of your data is first and foremost a question of choosing why to ensure this confidentiality and against what threat.

Why do you want to encrypt your data? Is it to protect sensitive information from potential attacks?
To guarantee the confidentiality of communications inside your company?
Or maybe to comply with regulatory or legal requirements?

Asking those basic questions will allow you to choose the encryption methods and tools best suited to your situation, and thus anticipate the specific threats from which you want to protect your data.

Encryption is a term that is nowadays bandied about with little care as to its true meaning in the mainstream media and in unscrupulous marketing spiel.
However, for all businesses, regardless of size, a state of the art encryptionbased passive defence system is a key component in a sound data confidentiality management system.

Contrary to popular belief, what is critical to an efficient encryption solution is not technical mastery by experts and geeks, but rather the ability of the company to effectively roll out the project itself.

This whitepaper is intended to provide CIOs and CISOs with the keys they need to work their way through this type of project successfully.
The pointers in this document should therefore be seen as the starting point for a
rethink of your approach to data confidentiality to ensure it is consistent with the digital transformation of your organisation.

“Managing confidentiality means ensuring that only certain clearly identified persons can understand the information.”
