Reducing PCI scope and cyber risk - at the same time

Legacy approaches to securing email communications usually leave a lot to be desired or just plain don’t work, with usability being the number one barrier to adoption. They also require complex configuration files, key management, administration and provisioning – not to mention the multiple end-user steps to access encrypted emails and attachments. In many cases, inconsistent delivery methods even from a single solution results in clunky or unusable experience for mobile users.

But what if your mobile users could send and read encrypted email on leading iOS, Android, and Blackberry devices using the native experience without the hassle of web browsers, managing certificates, or awkward proxy servers? What if you could manage granular email data protection policies across corporate and personal mobile devices, both inside and outside the enterprise, from a unified console?

Join David Strom, expert on networking and communications technologies, and Mark Schweighardt, Director product management at Voltage Security, to learn:

-The challenges posed by current mobile device security solutions for securing email communications on smartphones and tablets

-How Voltage SecureMail Mobile Edition extends data-centric protection of emails seamlessly to and from desktops, applications, gateways, laptops, mobile devices, and cloud inboxes

-How to read and send encrypted email via the Voltage SecureMail mobile apps, and the benefits to mobile users and IT security operations

-How Voltage SecureMail Mobile Edition integrates with your existing compliance solutions such as DLP, archiving, and e-discovery, and with your existing email and IT infrastructure

Mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets have become mainstream business tools. Enterprises are accelerating their adoption of a Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) model to increase staff productivity and extend their relationships and brand to customers and partners through mobile channels, especially email. This presents major challenges to their existing security architecture and programs; every environment now features an unprecedented mix of operating systems, applications and practices

Every day, more and more sensitive business data and communication are being accessed by BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) and IT-provisioned smartphones, bringing huge implications to enterprise security and compliance efforts. It's not surprising that the top concern of today’s mobile enterprises is data security.

Traditional, container-based approaches to securing data on smartphones have encountered limited success due to their complexity to use and deploy, which impacts user productivity. No amount of perimeter defense can completely protect data accessed by smartphones, as evidenced by the data breaches still happening today.

Our guest speaker Bob Bragdon, Publisher, CSO Magazine and Mark Bower, VP Product Management, Voltage Security discuss a data-centric view for protecting valuable business data and talk about the top five strategies for mobile data security that can make or break your enterprise security strategy.

Please join us on May 3rd at 1 PM ET to see how Voltage Security offers a robust and easy to implement email encryption solution for securing your email communications.

Join our webinar on May 3, to learn more about how Voltage Security can help.

This webcast features Emily Mossburg, Principal, Deloitte & Touche LLP, who shares her personal experience in driving a data-centric security implementation at a Fortune 50, Top 10 bank.

Topics include:
- Conducting a broad evaluation of your data security options
- Gauging capacity requirements
- Ensuring that scalability is addressed in order to maximize your investment
- Socializing the data security plan within your company
- Leading your company through a successful data security implementation

Data privacy is typically driven by compliance mandates and while compliance does require security, it may not protect data as compliant data is breached every day.

Join us for this free webcast to gain invaluable insights from cases studies including AIG Group, JPMorgan Chase and Heartland Payment Systems, among others.

Learn how these companies are using a data-centric security strategy to:

• Consolidate data protection into a single, scalable architecture platform
• Simplify IT operations with stateless key management
• Protect data - anywhere, all the time
• Secure structured and unstructured data on any platform, anywhere
from mainframe to mobile, in and out of the cloud

Enterprise customer case studies will include:
• Securing application data in the data center
• Securing cross-border data for residency and privacy
• Securing data in QA and pre-production environments
• Securing data stored in public cloud services
• Securing PCI and payments data
• Securing document sharing between employees, partners and customers

As banking and financial institutions seek to benefit from tremendous cost savings possible with cloud infrastructure and services – two key factors must be considered – the Patriot Act which has strict stipulations regarding access to data and where it is stored and the protection of data even from third party service providers. This seminar will explore both these issues and by using some common examples such as BPOS, propose a framework for addressing both without impacting operational costs or adding large amounts of excess infrastructure.

Mainframes remain the core of business-critical operations in most of the world's largest and most successful enterprises, including those in banking, insurance, healthcare, and retail. But as IT management will attest, there can be issues with complexity when it comes to securing critical information on the mainframes running on z/OS. Implementing an encryption solution can be disruptive to business operations and require hundreds of lines of code to acquire and store keys and perform cryptographic operations. Adding to the complexity are the deep expertise and highly specialized knowledge needed to keep all the moving parts working. But it doesn’t have to be that way -- in this webcast we'll discuss proven strategies for easily implementing data security in the z/OS environment.

The fact is mainframe resources are now increasingly accessible from the Internet, and even when they aren't, internal threats, trusted partners, interaction with distributed machines, and outsourcing all represent risks that must be mitigated. Encryption can minimize the cost impact of data breaches because encrypted data is virtually useless to anyone. Learn the latest about securing mainframe information from Phil Smith, Mainframe Architect with Voltage Security who has 30+ years of mainframe experience.

Listen to Steve Kozman, SVP & Chief IT Risk Officer, SunAmerica Financial Group share his experience and lessons learned while implementing data protection across seven business divisions at SunAmerica. When it comes to data protection, organizations often consider only data that is used in customer-facing applications and production databases. But what about data used in non-production environments such as application development, testing, quality assurance and training? Many organizations have implemented policies or solutions such as strong password protection and firewalls to comply with regulatory requirements and to deter breaches, yet common infrastructure-centric methods for protecting sensitive information have proven inadequate in today's threat environment. Hear how SunAmerica Financial Group has achieved this.

As cybercriminals have become more skillful and sophisticated, they have eroded the effectiveness of our traditional perimeter-based security controls. The constantly mutating threat landscape requires new defensive measures, one of which is the pervasive use of data encryption technologies.

Join us for this free webinar, and in just 45 minutes you'll gain invaluable insight into the latest trends and customer-proven solutions for data-centric security. Insight that you can put into action at your company today, including:

- Encryption prevents cybercriminals from monetizing your data

- Ubiquitous encryption is the only hope we have of maintaining some kind of parity with attackers in the new threat landscape

- Data-centric security is a much more effective way to combat cybercriminals
