Overview

The retail sector is becoming increasingly competitive and globalized. To succeed in this environment, retailers of all kinds are depending on an array of IT infrastructure that increases their efficiency and reduces their costs. Diverse technologies let merchants rapidly communicate data on pricing, sales, demand, campaigns, supplies, and customers between their in-store, sales processing, back-end fulfillment, supply chain, and CRM systems.

Like most organizations, retailers use email as a key means of communication, between employees as well as with outside suppliers, processors and vendors. However, high volumes of email traffic across an organization's network can make it difficult to maintain data security. This is especially important for organizations that process, store, or transmit any credit or debit card information.
