A free guide to data security has been published by Avanquest UK and Intelligent Output Solutions. The target audience is SME's

Over 70% of UK companies lack a data encryption strategy according to a recent survey. In response Avanquest and IOS have written the guide to explain how to secure data and reduce the costs associated with traditional PKI encryption.

Traditional public key infrastructure (PKI) solutions are not always appropriate for the SME sphere, according to IOS director Stewart Rogers.

Giles Forrester, product manager for PC Guardian encryption software at Avanquest, said, “We’re pleased to have worked on this guide with IOS. Their approach in challenging the traditional PKI security systems that have made the headlines for good and bad reasons of late makes sense to us and our clients. Paying once for a security product and leaving it to work, day in and day out, has got to provide a bigger return on investment than a ‘regular administration’ solution.”

“Traditional PKI schemes can be extremely expensive and often require year-on-year administration,” he said. “This new guide covers some of the shortfalls and costs associated with traditional PKI approaches, and compares them against solid non-PKI technologies. By looking at different encryption schemes, Avanquest and IOS aim to provide clients, both large and small, with an independent and informed view.”
