This insightful discussion explores how organizations can effectively manage data security in the increasingly digital world. IDC's research reveals a significant shift towards digital transformation, bringing both opportunities and challenges. Jennifer Glenn and Dean Coclin delve into strategies for implementing crypto-agility, automation, and quantum-safe encryption to safeguard sensitive data.
A recent study by research firm IDC reveals that over 53 percent of organizations have now transitioned to a predominantly or entirely digital model. This shift brings significant advantages but also presents challenges in safeguarding the vast amounts of sensitive data constantly traversing multiple on-premises and off-premises locations, as well as end-user devices.
The encouraging news is that these challenges can be effectively addressed through the implementation of crypto-agility, automation, and quantum-safe encryption.In this insightful discussion, Jennifer Glenn, Research Director for the IDC Security and Trust Group at IDC, and Dean Coclin, Senior Director and Digital Trust Specialist at DigiCert, delve into IDC's recently published white paper, 'The Evolution of Digital Business.' They explore strategies for effectively managing data security across the diverse range of connections utilized by the average enterprise.IDC defines digital trust as the capability to securely share data between employees, partners, and suppliers while adhering to data security regulations and compliance requirements, thereby instilling confidence in users regarding the provided digital infrastructure. However, the research firm estimates that only 11 percent of organizations are currently implementing quantum-safe encryption, with a quarter expressing uncertainty about where to begin. Costs and the absence of established standards are often cited as primary obstacles hindering their adoption. Jennifer and Dean propose that crypto-agility, which enables rapid adaptation of cryptographic methods without requiring extensive overhauls to existing organizational infrastructure, offers a promising path forward. This approach not only contributes to time and cost savings but also enhances security and facilitates the automation of certificate management across the organization. Through real-world examples, Jennifer and Dean illuminate how crypto-agility, automation, and quantum-safe encryption can empower your organization to stay ahead of evolving threats, optimize operational efficiency, and ensure a secure and compliant future
