Data Leak Prevention

What is Data Leak Prevention?

Data Leak Prevention wheel

With increasing frequency and severity, more and more organizations are becoming victims of high-profile leaks that started with a simple click of the Send button. What are often unintentional leaks are compounded by the efforts of malicious activity from both insiders and externals whose goal it is to use the information for illicit purposes. Most data leaks and targeted attacks - inadvertent or intentional - occur at the endpoint and many of these are generated internally. Unmanaged removable media and applications can easily open the floodgates for data to escape into the wrong hands.

Today’s security professionals face a daunting challenge: Protect the organization’s most valuable asset, its information, amidst widespread investment in new, more efficient communication technologies. As organizations invest in new business systems and processes to exchange critical information to, from and about customers, partners, and employees in real time, more opportunity exists for information leaks. Data Leak Prevention or Information Leak Prevention is the practice of making sure that the sensitive data stored on endpoint devices are not compromised or lost when handling, managing or using it.

The pressure to provide data security is influenced by three factors:

  • Regulatory compliance
  • Protecting confidential data
  • Mitigating the risk and associated cost of a breach

Not a day goes by without a news story about an organizations’ employee misplacing or losing their USB memory sticks, having their laptops stolen or sending an important email to the wrong person by mistake (automatic email population). Losing data that is sensitive and confidential hurts businesses in many ways.
