- Be aware of the data that is being sent out of your control, either to an employee's cloud, the organizations own cloud, an employee's flash drive or via any of the 65,000+ available channels. It only takes a few seconds for a trusted employee or untrusted entity (e.g. malware) to send data such as PII or PCI to the cloud or "phone home", violating compliance regulations &/ or policy. You need to understand and know what data was sent, from where and to where it's going.
- Know what data you can send out of the network and where to. When data travels cross borders, as it does so often, the risk increases on an exponential basis for the data owner.
- Detection accuracy ensures you protect the correct data with the proper control and be alerted to irregular activity. Some data needs to be blocked, some just encrypted while other information can leave without any issue. Many "DLP" solutions cannot accurately provide both the content & context awareness to respond.
