1.1 AnySecura User Manual Preface

The rapid evolution of information technology has brought unprecedented convenience to business growth, while also introducing serious risks and challenges to information protection and management.

Ensuring Information and Data Security

A global information security survey covering more than 7,200 executives across 130 countries and regions shows that effective enterprise security must be targeted, with data protection as the primary concern. The survey found that 56% of respondents reported their organizations lack data loss prevention capabilities, while nearly half of Chinese respondents indicated that, although data loss prevention measures were in place, access authorization controls had not been implemented.

Today, most business information and data are stored and transmitted as electronic documents. From design drawings to customer information, and from financial records to paperless administrative documents, electronic files significantly accelerate information flow and business processes. However, their inherently open nature—easy to access, copy, and distribute—combined with widespread internet use and the prevalence of portable storage devices, presents unavoidable security challenges.

Difficulty in Evaluating and Controlling System Usage Efficiency

Recent survey results indicate that a large proportion of employees use instant messaging and social media during work hours, with online news sites being the most frequently visited. Even just two hours of unproductive computer use per day per employee can result in significant financial losses. For a company with 50 employees, this could translate into substantial annual costs. In addition, misuse of network and system resources may introduce hidden security risks from the Internet, potentially compromising overall system safety.

Cumbersome System Maintenance and Asset Management

Studies by Gartner and Forrester Research indicate that nearly half of IT departments’ time is spent installing and upgrading software, with 70–80% of IT staff workload devoted to routine PC maintenance. This significantly increases overall network management costs, and unresolved issues can seriously disrupt business continuity.

AnySecura is a powerful tool designed to address these challenges through a modular architecture that integrates behavioral auditing, tiered authorization, access control, centralized management, and transparent document encryption/decryption.

Its document encryption module employs advanced technologies to ensure integrity and availability, while high-speed caching minimizes system performance impact. With high security, stability, and usability, AnySecura is suitable for businesses of all sizes, government agencies, public institutions, and research organizations seeking to protect their confidential information.
