| Enterprise email systems carry millions of messages every day, any one of which could contain inappropriate information and be misdirected or intercepted. PGP solutions allow enterprises to build email security into their IT infrastructure, providing automated encryption of email messages and attachments. |

| Every week brings news of another data security breach caused by a stolen laptop containing confidential data. However, mobile professionals need access to company data to work effectively. PGP products mitigate the consequences of data breaches from lost or stolen laptops and make protecting data on a hard disk so transparent users may forget it's there. |

| Enterprise servers and mainframes process large amounts of data on a daily basis. Much of that data needs to be transferred on or off those systems for backup or archival purposes, to coordinate with business partners, or to comply with regulations. This confidential data is vulnerable to loss or breach if it is transferred unencrypted. PGP encryption tools allow organizations to protect large amounts of batch information and secure automated transfer and backup processes. |

| Organizations’ network storage is sharing more information with more widely dispersed clients, including users outside the company, than ever before. Even on tightly managed servers, traditional access controls can be inadequate for ensuring that confidential information is not exposed to unauthorized individuals. PGP solutions supplement server access rights with granular encryption protection, allowing decentralized users to securely save and share files on network file servers. |

|
| Today’s flash “pen” drives and portable hard disks are small and convenient, making it easy to transfer or have critical data on hand at all times. Because of their size, however, they are also easy to lose or steal. PGP solutions ensure that confidential data stored on removable and portable devices has strong protection that will prevent a data breach even if the device is lost or stolen. |

| Instant messaging (IM) continues to gain importance in large organizations for enabling quick exchanges between colleagues. The informal format of IM makes it all too easy to transmit confidential information, however. Beyond text, which can contain passwords or other highly sensitive data, today’s IM clients can also send and receive large files as well as any dedicated file transfer tool. PGP encryption can be transparently applied to IM connections, ensuring that such exchanges do not expose the company to risk of data breach. |
