First, the use of strong encryption algorithms helps protect against the possibility of data interception. For example, AES 256-bit encryption is considered one of the strongest available and should be used for transmitting critical or sensitive information. Second, digital certificates should be used to authenticate both sender and recipient identities and establish a secure connection between them. Third, using HTTPS instead of HTTP when transmitting data through websites ensures an additional layer of protection from hackers by creating a secure tunnel between two computers. Finally, multi-factor authentication should be implemented to prevent unauthorized access to corporate networks or applications containing sensitive data.
