Description: Policy-based encryption is a security approach that applies encryption techniques to data based on predefined policies that determine who can access sensitive information and under what circumstances. This type of encryption allows organizations to establish clear rules for data handling, ensuring that only authorized users can access critical information. Policies may include criteria such as the user’s geographical location, the type of device used, the level of authentication required, and other contextual factors. By integrating encryption with access policies, organizations can better protect their data from unauthorized access and comply with privacy and security regulations. This approach not only enhances data security but also facilitates information management, allowing organizations to quickly adapt to changes in the threat landscape and compliance needs. In a world where data is increasingly valuable and vulnerable, policy-based encryption has become an essential tool for protecting sensitive information.
