DLP - (Data Loss Prevention) are solutions to protect organizations against intentional or accidental disclosure of sensitive data in a comprehensive way.

Every day organizations are losing huge amounts of information as a result of intentional or accidental activities. Often the costs of such incidents are very high and must be taken into account in the security policy plans implementation. Data loss prevention is often one of the most important aim of security policy both for business reasons as well as for the importance of  processed information and general and branch law currently in force . Despite the existence of multiple data prevention and encryption in the market, it is only the comprehensive approach to the issue that allows to reduce the scope of this phenomenon in an effective manner.

Building a system for data loss prevention is closely dependent on the security requirements of security policy. Professional DLP systems are corporate solutions designed not only to protect the data but above all, to reduce the opportunities to access the data in situations that are a potential source of threat. Data loss prevention does not limit the possibility of working with systems. It covers the protection of disk resources, mail, databases and most of all users workstations which are the most critical point of data protection. A key feature of DLP systems are efficient tools performing data encryption in the background (below the application layer) with the ability to accelerate the operations using hardware cryptographic devices that ensure extra permanent keys protection to make corporate data secure.

Functionality

• protection of data that are exchanged in the network,
• protection of data stored on any types of data media and databases,
• e-mail protection against unauthorized transmission of the content and documents,
• centralized management of security,
• administration based on hierarchical roles,
• protection against connecting the devices to workstations / portable PCs,
• data protection in working mode out of the corporate network.

Benefits

• reduced risk of unauthorized or accidental corporate data loss,
• reduced number of cases of unauthorized taking data from the company by employees,
• permanent level of efficiency while increasing the security level,
• improvement to detect security breaches by the automatic recording traces in the audit system,
• compliance with the regulations on sensitive data protection.

Technology

• in DLP products implementation CA Orchestria products and Utimaco Safeguard solutions are used,
• solutions architecture includes central management server and plug-ins installed in the individual nodes and components that integrate with the protected area of infrastructure,
• to ensure secure keys storage and cryptographic operations acceleration central management server can use hardware cryptographic modules, in particular, produced by Utimaco and SafeNet offered by BSB.
