Distributing personal data can expose businesses to unnecessary risk. While automating this process can present the opportunity to deliver on-demand services, privacy legislation has led Information Security Officers to re-examine their existing procedures. As a result, organisations are increasingly adopting solutions that are integrated into business processes, designed to automate protection, and satisfy regulatory compliance when sharing confidential information.
Switch Fusion goes beyond traditional automation and leverages patented innovation using the Egress Switch security platform. By combining seamless protection with real-time access control, organisations can process transactions containing sensitive data with confidence; safe in the knowledge that only authorised recipients can access the information.
Switch Fusion offers integrated protection by automatically encrypting outbound data based on configurable rules such as unauthorised content, named recipients, or embedded Meta data.
Using Switch Fusion, not only do you comply with privacy legislation by protecting automated transactions containing sensitive data, but also deliver centralised enforcement of security policy without disrupting core business processes.
Organisations responsible for processing personal data are required to satisfy data privacy laws. These include Sarbanes-Oxley, HIPAA, and The Data Protection Act, all of which regulate industry best practice surrounding the transfer of confidential data. Encrypting information containing social security numbers, credit card numbers, or other financial or personally identifiable information is critical in order to protect against unauthorised access.
"Since we integrated Switch Fusion into our daily workflow, transferring large files containing confidential information is not only easy, but also safe and cost efficient. It's an integral part of our security infrastructure'"
