Encryption is now the fifth most widespread technique, a dramatic rise compared to 2011 when it just made it in to the top ten.
Nikolay Grebennikov, Chief Technology Officer at security specialists Kaspersky Lab, said: “Encryption incorporated into a comprehensive security system for corporate IT infrastructure can be an effective way out.
“Our business solutions can provide flexibility and easily managed protection for all corporate network endpoints.”
