What is the purpose of the Informatica Cloud secure agent in data transfer?

The purpose of the Informatica Cloud secure agent in data transfer primarily focuses on ensuring the security and integrity of the data being transmitted. By encrypting data during transfer, the secure agent protects sensitive information from unauthorized access and boosts compliance with data protection regulations. Encrypting data adds a crucial layer of security, making it more difficult for malicious actors to intercept and misuse the information.

While the secure agent may play roles in other areas such as facilitating data processing or executing scheduled tasks, its essential function in the context of data transfer revolves around encryption. This focus on security ensures that data remains confidential and trustworthy throughout its journey from source to destination.
