Abstract: The purpose of this work is to show the challenge of data protection faced by companies today to meet the relevant requirements of existing regulations, and, on the other hand, to identify the use of encryption as a solution to comply with these requirements. For this, a hybrid methodology was carried out, between research and practice, analyzing on the one hand current regulations and encryption solutions, and on the other, deploying and testing one of the solutions in different use cases for compliance with regulations. As conclusions we observe that we live in a world where, the rapid technological advances, entail the creation and modification of laws and regulations on data protection, to which companies must submit and be prepared, existing a great dependence on data encryption for the compliance with the requirements. So companies have to rely on the encryption solutions that exist in the market. Regarding the tested encryption solution, Vormetric, it has a wide range of tools and products that at first glance seem to be able to comply with the requirements requested by any regulation that a company must face in terms of data protection, whether in its facilities, the cloud or a hybrid environment. As future lines of work, the configuration of a security monitoring system, and the implementation and configuration of storage and retention policies in accordance with the requirements of the regulations.
