Complying with the GDPR: the role of encryption
Even if your business is based in the United States, the EU’s new General Data Protection Regulation may affect you. It doesn’t come into force until May 2018, but its implications are complex and the potential penalties for non-compliance severe. Encrypting data that you hold is one way to help you meet the new data security rules. Read on to find out how encryption can help you comply.
How our encryption solution works to help you comply with the GDPR
By securely encrypting the personal data records you hold, your business or organization can protect itself in the event of a system breach. That’s because such incidents are much less likely to be regarded by regulatory authorities as a compliance failure if the data is properly encrypted. ESET Endpoint Encryption uses a combination of public and private keys to make encryption as simple and powerful as possible for organizations of all sizes.
