Always best to encrypt your connections yourself point to point. Don't rely on the major carriers to do it for you.
We encrypt our data in transit and at rest. That's important and we're one of the few who does at rest also. It's expensive, sure. It's less expensive than a breach costing a shit ton of business and money. Even if someone were to breach our network security or get into one of our data centers and steal a disk, it's undecipherable to them without the decrypt keys.
Smart move.
“Always best to encrypt your connections yourself point to point.”
Our dark fiber customers usually do that. We hand them the fiber and they do the rest. But not all businesses have the IT horsepower to do that. So we can provide end to end security if they wish.
We always use industry best practices. Shocking how many IT types don’t.
