Learn how to use your online customers’ ages to guide your customer service and support strategy.

Travel eBusiness and channel strategy professionals should integrate interactive chat into their customer support strategy by following the three steps detailed in this report.

Get the Complete Story on Encryption.
Full disk encryption no longer makes sense. Learn about next-generation encryption and why your organization needs it. Concerned about the damage and liabilities of lost and stolen data, enterprises are turning to encryption as a backstop to prevent corporate and customer information from ending up in the wrong hands. Outdated, first-generation encryption technologies, however, often deliver less than promised—either leaving critical gaps in security, preventing the legitimate recovery of data or, even worse, encouraging operational compromises that can be exploited. Organizations today need a more intelligent, multilayered approach to encryption that automatically safeguards data without complicating essential IT and user operations.
This white paper examines the limitations of first-generation encryption processes that often deliver less-than-promised performance, spur user resistance, conflict with operational infrastructure and process requirements, and can even leave data stored in unencrypted locations where it is easily visible to unauthorized users. This white paper covers:
- Data in the Line of Fire
- Changing Needs of Security Management
- Data on the Move
- Endpoint Data Protection
