The document discusses how to securely protect internal communication within an organization. It provides examples of how clear text communication, such as instant messages and emails, can expose sensitive information if intercepted. The document then introduces Virtual Security Technology (VST) solutions like virtual security appliances with firewalls and VPN tunnels, public key infrastructure (PKI) services, and secure identity cards to encrypt communication and authentication. These solutions aim to prevent data theft and security breaches that often originate from within organizations.
