Marketing professionals and IT departments should have equal urgency when securing their business technologies. For instance, content management systems became immensely safer with encryption. Biztech experts across teams must collaborate to develop a secure strategy to protect digital assets in CMS environments. These are the best practices and methods to follow for implementation.
Many people believe that website security is only important where personal information, and credit card transactions are involved. This could not be further from the truth. Your website needs security regardless of whether it is an e-commerce site, or blog. SSL is the industry standard in website protection and millions of website owners use it to protect their customer’s details and online transactions.
