      Encryption, privacy, & data protection: a balancing act

      This white paper examines the risk posed by encrypted threats; considers the business, privacy, and security implications of managing that risk; and presents constructive measures for balancing security needs with employee privacy rights. In the end, the best way for IT leadership to ensure the rights of the individual employee is to protect the organization from threats and attacks.

      On borrowed time?

      Cybercrime has become a huge part of our economy and it is a topic that is getting more and more attention in the news media. The cybercriminal stories making headlines involve big companies such as British Airways and Marriott etc. However, smaller companies are just as susceptible to cyber- attacks. Often these attacks are much more damaging to smaller businesses, sometimes forcing them to shut down completely. One report from Verizon claims that 43% of email attacks target SMBs.

Revenue: £558.3m (+11%)

Net profit: 2.1%  Staff: 798

This global reseller giant last month admitted "the demand environment continues to be challenged" as it posted a one per cent YoY revenue rise to $1.94bn in its fiscal third quarter of 2020 (EMEA revenues slid four per cent to $341.3m). The NASDAQ-listed firm completed its integration of rival PCM during the quarter.

With UK arm Insight Direct yet to file its 2019 accounts as we went to press, we have had to rank it based on its calendar 2018 numbers, when it posted a net profit of £11.4m on revenues of £558.3m. A local management shuffle taking place on 1 January 2021 will see current UK boss Emma de Sousa move up to EMEA president. Darren Hedley will take on her current role.
