41% Companies Make Prevention Of Data Leaks A Priority Task

The leakage of confidential data – whether by accident or malicious design – can have serious consequences for any company, and in the worst cases might even cause a business to collapse. The results of a survey conducted by the IDC marketing agency in December 2012 show that many companies recognise the gravity of the problem - 41% of companies are genuinely concerned about possible data leaks and have made prevention a primary objective. According to IDC, encryption - one of the most effective and reliable data protection tools - is becoming more and more popular.
