Unisys Security Experts Predict 2014 Will Be 'The Year of Encryption'
Security experts at Unisys Corporation predict that the coming year will usher in broad-based adoption of encryption as enterprises respond to recent disclosures that unencrypted data traffic inside enterprises is vulnerable to detection from outsiders.
Disclosures that the U.S. government may have accessed data from the internal networks of major internet service providers have already prompted some of these companies to expand the use of encryption within their own organizations, Unisys experts note. That activity will continue to grow in 2014, resulting in an explosion in the use of encryption tools, they say.
