What is data encryption?
Data encryption scrambles your data to ensure it cannot be read and stolen from outside sources. It is an essential part of online security and incredibly important for businesses to protect personal data, work files, emails and more.
Keeping your business safe
Using ESET, a leading data security software, we’re able to provide a wide range of solutions to ensure your encrypted data is safe and secure.
There are two main types of encryption; symmetric encryption and asymmetric encryption. Both options offer secure data protection but in slightly different ways.
Symmetric encryption
Also known as private key encryption, this method requires both the sender and receiver of data to have access to the same encryption key in order to decrypt the message.
Without the same decryption key, the receiver won’t be able to read or understand the data.
Asymmetric encryption
Also known as public key cryptography, this encryption process uses two separate keys; public and private. These are linked and one is an encryption key and the other is a decryption key.
Which type of encryption is right for your business? This depends on a number of factors which we can discuss with you to create the right solution for your data.
How to keep sensitive data safe
As a business there are many ways you and your staff can protect data and reduce your risk of data theft. Our team are experts in cyber security and can advise on best practice approaches in relation to our security services.
Dispose of old IT equipment properly
A lot of companies don’t consider what to do with old IT and computers once they’ve upgraded. It’s vital that you don’t just dispose of the old tech without completely wiping all data from them. At Woodstock IT we work with old computers and laptops to completely clear all data and refurbish IT systems for resale. Speak to our team to discuss your old IT before disposing of it.
Secure WiFi
When it comes to your business, ensuring all online solutions are secure is extremely important. This also includes your WiFi – you want to use a reliable and secure WiFi connection to reduce the risk of any external threats.
Antivirus and malware protection
Malicious software and viruses can cause serious harm to your business and day-to-day working life. Having up to date virus protection software will help ensure your computers are safe from harmful attacks. Our team can protect multiple computers at once, so you can rest assured your whole team is covered.
Backup and data recovery tools
If the worst case scenario happens and you find a threat has got into your system, backup and data recovery will give you peace of mind. Taking regular backups will mean any lost data can be restored quickly and easily. Without this in place, it can be extremely costly and time consuming.
Use strong passwords
Ensure your staff are using strong passwords across all areas of your business. This teamed with encryption software will ensure that external threats can’t easily access your systems and data.
Review who has access to certain data
It’s always worth considering how accessible your data is. If every single person in your organisation has access to all data, this can lead to a bigger risk of accidental data leaks or viruses gaining access. Review your current setup and see if there is a more secure way to store your data and who can access it.
Other IT security services
We offer a wide range of services that ensure your important business data is protected. From data encryption and antivirus software to penetration testing and dark web monitoring, we can help you keep your business safe online.

Woodstock IT were brilliant. Dave Hearn called me first thing to run through the validity of the unusual login, within minutes of it happening and then he brilliant took care of absolutely everything, whilst the people within the business could just continue to do our normal jobs.
Dave's attention to detail and provision of assurance that he had everything in hand, was a huge relief. After initially locking down the account, to ensure he would stop any potential issues, he even then spoke to our user directly to walk them through the full new login process again.
IT Support is often the type of thing a business pays for and hopes to never have to use - but dealing with Woodstock IT and Dave this morning, absolutely confirmed that it is money very well spent.
I couldn't possibly recommend the team highly enough!

I wanted to take a moment to express my sincere gratitude to your incredible IT support team for their exceptional service in fixing my laptop. Your team's prompt response, technical expertise, and attention to detail truly exceeded my expectations. I am a grateful client, and I couldn't be more pleased with the level of care and professionalism you provided throughout the entire process. I especially commend Carl and Cat as they provided excellent customer service at an affordable cost.
I want to commend each member of your IT support team for your hard work and dedication. May laptop has been upgraded, working well and is now speedier. Your collective efforts have restored my laptop to full functionality and my confidence in your organisation's IT support services just skyrocketed.
Once again, thank you from the bottom of my heart for your outstanding service. You have a dedicated client in me (and from our company), and I will not hesitate to recommend your IT support team to anyone needing expert assistance.
Warm regards,
Ray
Jake sorted my PC out for me again and it works perfectly
I've used Woodstock for many years, so when my elderly laptop had an issue I had no hesitation in taking it to them. As usual, they were very helpful and solved the problem within one working day.
Highly recommended.
I would recommend Woodstock IT to anyone looking for professional IT Services provision.
No question is ever too silly for them!
I always feel like whenever I phone they always have the time to help me, whether that be remotely or in the workshop.
Highly recommend this company for all your IT needs
As for value, their prices are very completive, the staff are extremely friendly, and nothing is too much trouble for them.
Due to a disability, they never question about taking up tasks either remotely or by visiting my home.
I have been using Woodstock for several years and can truly say they look after all my IT needs and have even helped from time to time with my smart gadgets.
Defiantly one of the best 3rd party contractors I have ever used.

Carl arrived very promptly helped resolve an e mail problems on all 4 computers as well as my mobile phone for my business, very professional service, definitely would recommend
Instead I preferred to ask the professionals for their opinion about what I needed and for them to source the hardware. Having previously used Woodstock IT for servicing, they were the obvious choice. They provided a solution and quoted me the price for the hardware and for the data transfer and setting up the new system. They are the experts and I fully trust their expertise. Excellent service from the team.
