 Corporate Email Security
Corporate identity theft is an issue that is not talked about very often. Mostly, there are stories about individual identity theft--hackers stealing credit card information and then going on a spending spree. However, corporate espionage is a growing problem as well. Corporate hackers are able to infiltrate a corporation's email account and website to steal highly sensitive information.
Corporations may spend a lot of time setting up network firewalls to protect sensitive information, but strangely do not take the same type of security measures with email. The thought is that static information--such as accounting information on an encrypted web page or the desktop--is much more vulnerable than email in transit.
This is just not true. Email can be recorded every time it is sent. In addition, experienced hackers can "catch" an email as it is being sent or received. Most corporations are on a network, so if a hacker breaks into the network, he will have access to the entire hard drive: not just web-based information.
It is vitally important to keep all of your personal and corporate sensitive information secure. Information about an upcoming project or campaign, a long-term business plan, and other information can be dangerous in the hands of the competition. Using an outsourced email service is a more secure way to send and receive email. Load.com offers the most secure email client available. Your corporation will be free from corporate espionage or a lone hacker with prying eyes.
