Data Loss Prevention (DLP)

Challenge

Enterprise DLP products are being deployed throughout organizations to discover, classify, monitor, and control sensitive data. Drivers may include regulatory compliance, insider and external leakage threats, prior incidents, and audit findings. Full DLP deployments are slow to develop, in part because the technology is still maturing but mostly because of the complex people and process issues that need to be resolved. This is especially relevant in larger organizations with numerous business units. The number of DLP products and options can be overwhelming and has the potential to affect just about everyone and every department in an organization. Additionally, many organizations currently lack internal resources with the requisite DLP experience or time to undertake a DLP enablement project. Appropriate planning and operational readiness are critical to deploying a DLP solution smoothly throughout an organization.
