The article linked below highlights a growing area of concern for Local Authorities and those organisations that have contact with vulnerable individuals. “The Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) has issued its largest monetary penalty to date with Powys County Council ordered to pay £130,000 after child protection case details were sent out incorrectly in two instances.”
Ensuring that e-mails and documents can only be sent and received by authorised individuals with a full audit trail, is becoming an essential requirement for these organisations.
M7 has partnered with security specialists Deep Secure to deliver a range of high-assurance data sharing solutions that enable public and private sector organisations to effectively and securely share information whilst maintaining its integrity and confidentiality when it is sensitive.
Deep Secure products are designed and engineered to meet the exacting standards set by clients such as the UK Ministry of Defence, Her Majesty’s Government and NATO, whose data sharing requirements face a wide range of threats amid the need to communicate in security-hardened environments.
