Protegrity

Cracking the code for selling encryption.

The Complexity

It's not hard to believe that enterprise data encryption is a bit of a heady subject. While data nerds might be infatuated with it, most executives aren't. Yet encryption in the digital age is critical to business security. Having just emerged from a restructuring, Protegrity was looking to reinvent itself and asked us to help.

What We Did

Working with the internal marketing team at Protegrity we helped the company redesign its logo and brand elements. Concurrently we helped them position themselves in the market - but instead of appealing to the IT department, we targeted the CEO and CFO who ultimately made the decision on where budget was allocated.

Protecting your data. Protecting your business. drove home the real benefit to senior business executives and rose above the acronyms and tech talk. We were able to build on the message across media, making encryption accessible to the nontechnical.
