At Be Encrypted, we all work every day, and each day we take a step forward to help solve the biggest problem in security. Everyone is guessing. Businesses don’t know the technicalities of security and how to protect their infrastructure. People don’t know where their sensitive data goes, how data helps communicate, or how to protect their internet-connected devices.
Throughout the history of networking, people use data to help them connect to the world of the internet. Our mission at Be Encrypted is to nourish online privacy and security and a safe environment, as it was supposed to. Today we spread awareness and educate people and businesses alike on how they can protect themselves from cyber threats.
You must have heard the word Encryption frequently in the latest news. That might tinker your mind that it is something that techies would do. In reality, the concept of encryption is simple. Encryption is a set of mathematical algorithms that a user can use to encode data that is only readable by the intended user. It might sound onerous to most people, but it is the best method to safeguard your security and privacy, even when you think it is unnecessary.
We are now more connected to our devices and cannot live without phone calls, online purchases, social media, emails, and general browsing. While we constantly generate and share online information, our data must have stored somewhere. That data should only be available to the service providing the means of conversation. However, it could also be exposed to our telecom services carrying the internet packets, and unknown third parties can also intercept these supposedly secure and private communication. As recent cases have proved that company data is being targeted by cybercriminals and hackers, which result in data breach. This reason should only be enough warning to those who haven’t decided to protect their data and communication through encryption.
Encryption upsteps the security of your message or data by scrambling its content. Like a box with a key, encryption is achieved using a key. The right key encrypts and decrypts the data. While encryption is not the complete answer to complete security, it is the best way to protect your privacy and identity. We can hide our data from being watched by using proper cryptosystems.
