BitArmor launches new managed encryption software service

November 20, 2009 · Filed Under Security Software, Software News · Comment 

BitArmor offers integrated e-mail, USB and disk encryption solution delivered from the cloud

BitArmor, a leading provider of information-centric encryption software, today announced the availability of BitArmor DataControl 4.0, which includes delivery of encryption software as a managed service. The new service is the industry’s first integrated USB, e-mail and full disk encryption solution delivered from the cloud. BitArmor Managed Encryption is well suited for mid-market businesses, saving them time, money and deployment headaches while providing military-grade encryption to prevent data breaches and comply with state and federal data privacy regulations.

– Easy to afford – Saves tens of thousands of dollars
– Easy to deploy – Leverages existing infrastructure, no additional hardware required
– Easy to use – Encryption is completely transparent to users
– Easy to manage – Enterprise class security without the hassles

“A significant number of PCs and media devices carrying business-critical data aren’t properly encrypted, and this state of affairs is certain to cause disasters for enterprises,” said John Girard, VP and distinguished analyst in Gartner’s Info Security and Privacy Research Center. “Statistical odds suggest that this will happen to virtually every organization, whether small, midsize or large.”

Unlike large corporations, mid-market businesses do not always have the budget, IT resources or infrastructure in place to protect their data with enterprise-class security strategies and technologies. Through BitArmor’s SaaS (Security as a Service) delivery model, all customers can benefit from the advantage of commercial-grade, enterprise-class encryption and affordable data security.

“A.I.M. Mutual is committed to setting the standard in service excellence for our customers, which includes being on the forefront of addressing key data protection issues like the new Massachusetts’s Privacy Law,” said Ray Pata, Manager Systems and Programming of A.I.M. Mutual Insurance Companies, one of the top providers of workers compensation in Massachusetts and an “A” rated financial institution by AM Best Company. “BitArmor Managed Encryption is a great security model as it provides very strong but highly affordable encryption so A.I.M. Mutual can continue to protect our key assets in a fiscally responsible manner.”

“Our customers operating in a wide range of highly regulated industries need encryption as part of their overall defense strategy, but mid-sized companies don’t always have the resources needed to manage an enterprise deployment,” said Carl Kunzmann, Managing Partner of Wulf Consulting, an IT provider that specializes in managed solutions for mid-market businesses and is now offering BitArmor Managed Encryption to its clients. “A great example is Ursuline Senior Services, subcontractor to Pennsylvania’s Allegheny County Area Agency on Aging, which will use BitArmor Managed Encryption to provide an additional level of security and assurance that the confidential healthcare and financial data of the 5,000+ senior citizens it serves will not be compromised.”

As the inventor of patented Smart Tag(TM) technology, a revolutionary approach to data encryption that protects data wherever it goes, BitArmor is recognized for its ability to deliver strategic solutions for the industry’s most pressing data protection problems, including the industry’s only No-Breach Guarantee.

BitArmor Managed Encryption’s latest enhancements solve the unique data protection challenges of the small to medium enterprise market by providing military-grade encryption for laptops, USB devices and email attachments, in a simple-to-manage and affordable subscription-based SaaS model. This is in stark contrast to data encryption solutions offered by many vendors that are cost-prohibitive for smaller businesses because they require investments in disparate technologies, expert IT security resources, and dedicated servers.

New SaaS features with BitArmor Managed Encryption include:
Highest Grade of Encryption: Uses military-grade encryption to safeguard sensitive data;
Complete Control of Sensitive Data: Ensures customers’ sensitive data never enters the cloud by performing encryption processing functions on the client side;
Integrated Managed Encryption: Offers a single integrated managed disk, USB and e-mail encryption solution that is easy to use and completely transparent to end-users;
High Availability: Guarantees the highest level of availability with multiple redundant servers and offline capabilities that provide access to encrypted data in the event of a network outage;
Reporting for Compliance: Supports regulatory requirements with simple-to-use reporting capabilities;
Low Total Cost of Ownership: Allows administrators to easily deploy the solution within hours and securely manage users from a single console – without costly infrastructure investments or prior encryption and key management experience.

“Today’s businesses are faced with the seemingly impossible task of meeting data security requirements while managing IT costs,” said BitArmor CEO Patrick McGregor. “BitArmor continues to deliver the necessary innovations, like SaaS-based encryption, so that all companies can afford to protect their critical data without sacrificing business growth. BitArmor provides consistent value even as regulations and impending risk threats evolve.”

67% of French organisations hit by one or more data breach incidents within last twelve months

September 11, 2009 · Filed Under Security Software, Software News · Comment 

Research from Ponemon Institute Reveals that only 9 Percent of Respondents have an Overall Encryption Plan or Strategy Applied Consistently across the Enterprise

PGP Corporation, a global leader in enterprise data protection, has announced the results of its inaugural annual study by The Ponemon Institute, identifying the steps French organisations are taking in order to safeguard their confidential data. The 2009 Annual Study: France Enterprise Encryption Trends study, which polled 414 IT security professionals at enterprises and public sector organisations, found that 67 percent of French organisations have been hit by at least one data breach incident within the last year, with 18 percent having been hit by more than five incidents. A massive 92 percent of the data breaches were never disclosed as there was no legal or regulatory requirement to do so. Despite the large number of data breach incidents, 71 percent responded that data protection was a ‘very important’ or ‘important’ part of their risk management strategy, with protecting sensitive or confidential information in motion (transfer) or at rest (storage) their top priority.

“It is very encouraging to see that 71 percent of respondents view data protection as a critical part of their overall risk management plan,” said Dr Larry Ponemon, Chairman and founder of The Ponemon Institute. “However, the low percentage of French organisations having an overall encryption strategy in place or using a platform approach to encryption suggests that there are still considerable improvements to be made. The focus for 2010 needs to be on applying a strategic approach to data security across the enterprise.”

The following provides an overview of the key findings of the 2009 France Encryption Trends report:

– Only 9 percent of organisations have an overall encryption plan or strategy that is applied consistently across the entire enterprise.  Forty-five percent have no encryption plan or strategy whatsoever while the remaining 46 percent adjust their encryption plan to fit different applications and data types, or use encryption for certain types of sensitive/confidential information such as social security numbers or credit card accounts.
– Encryption is primarily used to comply with privacy or data security regulations (65 percent) or to limit the brand and reputation damage linked to data breaches (43 percent). With regard to the regulations and regulatory bodies most influential in organisations’ decision to implement encryption, the French Data Protection Commission and French National Privacy Law come out on top with 66 percent and 62 percent respectively. International regulations such as Sarbanes Oxley have a very minor impact (4 percent).
– Eleven percent of organisations use a platform approach to managing encryption solutions across the enterprise. Eight-two percent of these organisations believe the encryption platform increases the effectiveness and efficiency of their IT security programme. Reduced operational costs, consistent policy enforcement across applications and integration with third-party encryption applications were specifically listed as the primary benefits.
– Fifty-six percent of respondents use encryption technology at some level and the remaining 44 percent are in the process of introducing it. Encryption is most widely used to protect data on databases, VPNs and file servers. Mainframe and USB flash drive encryption are the least deployed applications.
– Seventy-one percent of organisations have a fully executed or just launched implementation of data archive and e-discovery systems programme. The figure is just slightly lower for the implementation of network-based data leak detection and prevention technologies (70 percent). More than half of respondents (58 percent) have just launched or fully executed an endpoint device control technology.
– Sixty-seven percent of respondents revealed that they had been hit by at least one data breach in the past 12 months. Of the companies that experienced 2 to 5 or more than 5 data breach incidents, none of them had implemented a company-wide strategy governing the use of data encryption technologies.
– A majority of respondents (58 percent) believe the ability to install a management infrastructure once, and then add additional encryption applications as needed is ‘very important’ or ‘important’. Other important features include the automation of key encryption management activities (55 percent) and enforcement of encryption policy across all applications.
– Encryption solutions are seen as a security priority for 39 percent of respondents. 29 percent also indicate that key management for encryption solutions is earmarked amongst the security initiatives in the current budget and accounts for just over 21 percent of overall spending on encryption
– Forty-five percent of respondents consider loss or theft of confidential or sensitive data one of the major security threats of the next 12 to 24 months. Despite this, 68 percent do not encrypt sensitive or confidential information on mobile data-bearing devices such as PDAs and smartphones, only 4 percent use encryption on USB flash keys and 47 percent are ‘unsure’ or ‘not confident’ about their ability to protect confidential or sensitive information in motion.

“The Ponemon data demonstrates that compliance and fear of reputational or brand damage are driving French organizations to prioritize data protection,” commented Phillip Dunkelberger, president and CEO of PGP Corporation. “Encryption solutions, when coherently and consistently applied across the enterprise to confidential and sensitive information, can protect data at rest, in motion and in use.”

69% of Australian organisations hit by one or more data breach incidents within last twelve months

August 12, 2009 · Filed Under Software News · Comment 

Research from Ponemon Institute Reveals Company-wide Use of Data Encryption Technologies Reduces Risk of Breach and is Critical to Company Reputation

PGP Corporation, a global leader in enterprise data protection, has announced the results of the second annual study by The Ponemon Institute, identifying the steps Australian organisations are taking in order to safeguard their confidential data. The 2009 Annual Study: Australian Enterprise Encryption Trends, which polled IT security professionals at 482 enterprises, found that 69 percent of Australian organisations have been hit by at least one data breach incident within the last year, up from 56 percent in the previous year. The number of firms experiencing multiple breaches was also up, with 41 percent of respondents admitting to more than two data loss incidents in the twelve month period (up from 28 percent in 2008). Of those organisations that did admit to a breach in the last 12 months 65 percent were never publicly announced; there was no legal or regulatory requirement to disclose these incidents.

Despite the rising number of data breaches, Australian organisations are aware of the consequences of such incidents, with 66 percent of respondents stating that data protection played an ‘important’ or ‘very important’ role in an organisation’s overall risk management efforts. 57 percent felt encryption helped them meet privacy commitments and 70 percent believed encryption was a critical factor in protecting a company’s reputation. The percentage of respondents who believe that the use of encryption increases customers’ trust and confidence in the organization’s privacy or data security commitments has increased from 32 percent in 2008 to 38 percent in 2009. Using encryption to comply with privacy or data security regulations and requirements has increased from 13 percent in 2009 to 15 percent in 2009. Those who selected regulations as one of the top reasons for using data encryption in 2009 point to the Privacy Act, National Privacy Principles and PCI DSS requirements.

In response to some high profile cases of lost and stolen laptops, together with the increased business use of smart-phones, this year’s study also assessed organisational approaches to encrypting data held on mobile devices. More than 64percent of respondents say it is very important or important to encrypt employees’ mobile devices and 55% believe that it is very important or important to provide end-to-end email security for Windows Mobile 6.0/6.1 Professional Edition.

“As we are finding through-out the world, breaches are on the rise as well in the Australian market where they increased 13 percent year over year,” said Dr Larry Ponemon, Chairman and founder of The Ponemon Institute. “There is encouraging news in the Australian market, 85 percent of the respondents stated that when they take a strategic approach to their encryption applications and use a platform approach it increases the effectiveness and efficiency of their IT security program.”

The primary benefits of the platform approach to managing encryption across the enterprise include reducing operational costs, eliminating redundant administrator tasks and supporting the development of a strategic encryption strategy. These were cited in the 2008 study as being the primary benefits as well.

“Australia organizations are in a unique position to be able to lead the next generation of privacy and data security regulations in the Asia Pacific region,” said Phillip Dunkelberger, president and CEO of PGP Corporation. “The Ponemon data shows us that Australian organisations are already taking a proactive approach to protecting customer information and other valuable data assets.”

The study found that 75% of Australian businesses have fully executed or just launched implementation of data encryption technology while 25 percent are in the process of implementing encryption in order to protect sensitive information. Encryption is most widely used to protect the data held on file servers, Virtual Private Networks (VPN) and databases. VOIP and mainframe encryption are the least deployed applications.

Other high priority activities in 2009 also include data archive and e-discovery systems with 71 percent fully executed or recently launched and endpoint device control technologies with 70 percent fully executed or just launched. The activities with the highest in-process response in 2009 include the implementation of endpoint-based data leak detection and prevention technologies, identity and access management systems and strong authentication devices.

85 percent of US organizations hit by one or more data breaches within the last twelve months

July 14, 2009 · Filed Under Security Software, Software News · Comment 

Latest Research from The Ponemon Institute Shows Data Protection is Part of Overall Enterprise Risk Management Strategy

PGP Corporation, a global leader in enterprise data protection, announced the results from The Ponemon Institute’s fourth annual study on encryption usage in the enterprise – The 2009 Annual Study: U.S. Enterprise Encryption Trends. This year’s study surveyed 997 IT and security practitioners and identifies the trends in enterprise encryption planning strategies, budgeting and spending, deployment methodologies and impact on data breach incidents. While 78 percent of organizations have an encryption strategy in place and are moving toward a more consistent approach to data protection, data breaches continue to rise across the board. 85 percent of survey respondents experienced at least one data breach in the last 12 months, consistent with 84 percent in 2008, and the number of companies experiencing more than 5 data breaches in one year rose to 22 percent, up from 13 percent last year. For the first time, fifty-eight percent of the respondents reported that data protection is a very important part of their overall risk management. Additionally, as organizations increasingly rely on mobile technology and PDAs as their primary computing platform, 26 percent indicate they encrypt a smartphone or PDA most of the time, 51 percent said they never do.

“In our fourth year of conducting this study, we are consistently breaking new ground in identifying new data protection trends to help enterprises as they assess their risk posture,” said Dr. Larry Ponemon, chairman and founder of The Ponemon Institute. “Organizations are looking for more complete solutions that can protect their data wherever it may reside. The focus for 2010 needs to be on applying a strategic approach to data security across the enterprise.”

The following list summarizes key findings from the study that included nearly 1000 U.S.-based enterprise IT leaders, analysts and executives:

  • Data protection is an important part of an organization’s risk management efforts. For the first time, Ponemon asked how data protection relates to an organization’s risk management efforts. Fifty-eight percent report that is a very important part of risk management and 22 percent say it is an important part.
  • Encryption of data on mobile data-bearing devices used by employees is very important or important. More than 59 percent of respondents say it is very important or important to encrypt employees’ mobile devices – a sign that organizations recognize that valuable data is more mobile than ever.
  • More than 70% have fully executed or just launched data encryption strategy in their organization. Once again data encryption strategies are being implemented across a majority of the respondent participants. The majority of organizations, 78 percent, have some type of encryption strategy, up from 74 percent in 2008 and from 66 percent in 2007.
  • Data Breaches continue to be a huge problem: Eighty-five percent of organizations surveyed had had at least 1 data breach in the last 12 months, demonstrating that there is no let up in breaches as this is consistent with 84 percent sited in the 2008 report. Companies suffering more than 5 data breaches rose to 22 percent in 2009 up from 13 percent in 2008.
  • Encryption is mostly used to mitigate data breaches and comply with privacy and data protection regulations. In addition, there was an increase in the percentage of respondents who reported that encryption is also important to preserving brand and reputation.
  • The percentage of organizations using the platform approach to managing encryption solutions has increased. Additionally, 76 percent would strongly recommend or recommend the platform-based approach if it reduced the cost of acquiring, deploying and managing encryption applications.

“This year’s research clearly demonstrates that compliance, breaches and brand damage are driving companies to deploy more data protection solutions,” said Phillip Dunkelberger, president and CEO of PGP Corporation. “The risk migration goal is clear; take a more strategic approach to protect your data – at rest, in motion and in use.”

The 2009 Annual Study: UK Enterprise Encryption Trends was released last week and reports in Germany and Australia will be released in the coming months.
