Data Loss Prevention
Most organizations have taken appropriate steps to address security risks by utilizing a variety of technologies such as firewalls, IDS/IPS and anti-virus/malware software; but what about the data that is flowing within and out of your networks and systems? Shouldn’t the data itself be protected from loss?
Research shows that most organizations and SMBs do not have a data loss prevention solution deployed despite the overriding need and concern about data loss. This begs the question:
• Do you know where your confidential data is?
• Which data loss channels are most in need of protection?
• Which technologies will maximize compliance with data privacy regulations & provide the best protection against data breaches?

Educate Users
Technology alone is not the answer to data loss. Technology cannot comprehend the contextual subtleties of each employee's job duties to make reliably informed, on-the-spot decisions about when and why sensitive data should flow, be quarantined for further consideration, or be blocked. Information Security Awareness Training must be part of every data loss prevention solution as well.
What is
Data Loss Prevention?
Data Loss Prevention (DLP) describes efforts to detect and prevent the unauthorized transmission of confidential data to anyone outside the organization. DLP involves creating safeguards and warning systems that prevent the accidental misuse of sensitive information, but it also includes the ability to identify and block intentional acts. DLP is an integral part of any organization’s Information Risk Management strategy.
