Companies around the world have purchased email encryption software to protect private, sensitive and valuable information communicated by email. These individual tools are effective, but as part of an overall data security and loss prevention strategy, they lack the integration required to be a complete solution. Email encryption software should be an integral part of a greater data security solution in which security policies can be uniformly defined and enforced in the context of the business processes they enable. This enables data classification, monitoring, control, email encryption and file encryption controls to be described and enforced in a common way. It also means that the monitoring and auditing of data usage and movement is collected holistically across a single system and reported in aggregated and actionable formats.
