Canada based WinMagic provides secure, manageable and easy-to-use data encryption solutions and develops full-disk encryption software.

Iain Airey- Vice President, EMEA & India, WinMagic said, “People often lose their devices – laptop, USB, mobile, tablet, desktop etc. but more than this people lose their valuable data which affects not just the individual but the company too. Encryption provides security to the same as it doesn’t allow unauthorized individual the right to access encrypted file or folder. We are looking forward to organising more such seminars.”

Through encryption, users can restrict access to personal files specifically or on a network. All files under a single folder or data partition are automatically encrypted. FFE increases the security of sensitive files by encrypting information on top of regularly fully encrypted hard drives. Users simply have to drag and drop files into the already encrypted folder.

The event brought together CXO’s, CIOL’s, CTO’s, IT Professionals and senior management in a collaborative environment to present and discuss issues relating to IT security.
