An adaptive approach to securing your critical information
No business is an island—sharing sensitive information between partners, suppliers and customers is essential for every modern company. Therefore, preventing data leaks and maintaining privacy protection is crucial.
Data Loss Prevention technology is a proactive approach to securing critical information without interrupting everyday business productivity.
DLP is direction agnostic, which is to say that it can be used to prevent information from entering an organization as well as leaking out. With the increase in legislative requirements, DLP is becoming essential for organizations of all sizes.
Both Inbound and Outbound, protection of your valuable data, trading secrets and intellectual property is of the utmost importance. Therefore, our solutions will not only protect you from malicious or unrightful data entering the organisation, but also guard that information that should never go beyond the boundaries of your business.
Securing business critical information from internal and external threats, DLP is a key priority for any organization that handles sensitive data, especially for those operating in highly regulated industries such as defense, finance, government, and healthcare.
DLP defensive strategies are primarily driven by regulatory compliance and data privacy laws, that require organizations to maintain secure environments and always apply the appropriate level of protection to the data in question, no matter where it is located, or how it is shared.
Deep content inspection goes beyond any level of what is traditionally offered in the market. It is not limited by zip/encryption, file size, analysis timing delays, virtual environment evasion techniques, or multiple embedded document layers. Deep Content Inspection identifies sensitive data during filtering of information through the Gateways.
Detect and automatically strip out active content in the form of embedded malware triggered executables, scripts or macros used to extract or hold sensitive data hostage, while potentially creating havoc within critical business systems. DLP threat protection sanitizes without delay in delivery, as only the malicious active content is removed, allowing the file transfer to continue unhindered.
Today’s electronic documents contain information other than what can be seen on the surface - there is hidden meta-data, such as document properties, name, subject, keywords, printers, windows version etc. as well as revision history. This can all be automatically
removed to prevent accidental data leaks.
This technology allows the modification of content in real time, as it is being analyzed, ensuring that the information being exchanged meets organizational security policies. Meta-data, revision history, properties and other hidden and unchecked information such as executables can be seamlessly removed to protect your critical information.
Share critical information inside and outside your organization with an unprecedented level of management control and security. Discover the first integrated Advanced Threat Protection and Adaptive Data Loss Prevention solution for Managed File Transfer (MFT). Its unique automated data redaction and sanitization layer ensures that information shared is only accessed by authorized parties and safe from malicious threats.
Understanding the information that is being sent is only part of the
story. The online sharing of information between trading partners has not only accelerated collaboration, but transformed the digital fabric of today’s businesses. Along with the need to share information comes the risk of exposing the wrong content and the question of how this data can be shared securely.
Files that contain confidential information, either visible within the body of the file or hidden within the metadata, can be mistakenly shared.
Equally, the sending and reception of files to and from partners could potentially open a door to malware, or threats hidden in file transfers if they are not secured properly and sent safely.
Any incoming communication can pose a threat to an organisation and file exchange is not immune to it. Files received from third parties can include a malicious payload embedded in an innocuous document.
DLP augments MFT’s ability to control information by applying deep content inspection and Adaptive Data Loss Prevention to enforce more thorough information security policies to prevent data loss, ensure compliance, and prevent advanced malware threats from infecting the organisation.
This integration between ICAP and MFT kicks off via workflows and triggers defined by your business needs and replaces sensitive text with asterisks and detects/redacts text (even in images) so that business can keep flowing, minus any offending content. This layered data security integration also helps to ensure industry compliance regulations can be maintained.
This combination of managed file transfer and advanced threat protection delivers end-to-end security and oversight with content inspection and redaction happening inside file transfers through ICAP before files are ever sent or received via MFT.
