New research by the Ponemon Institute found that companies looking at encryption are clamoring for the features that an enterprise platform would provide. Reducing operational expense, eliminating redundant administrator tasks and the flexibility to add other encryption applications ranked as important or very important by up to 75 percent of the 1,000 respondents.

That said, laptop encryption is the most commonly used, with 20 percent of respondents reporting that it’s used most of the time. Another interesting stat: Top management accounts for an average of 34 percent of encryption spend.
