Data Loss Prevention
Eliminate loss, theft, or exfiltration of business-critical data
What is data loss prevention?
Data Loss Prevention (DLP) technology provides visibility into data usage and movement across an organisation. Businesses will have different DLP strategies based on the severity of data risk, necessary compliance standards and the overall needs of the business.
More traditional DLP solutions have tended to focus on conventional and data-specific content inspection methods, which can lead to incident fatigue and a siloed view of data movement.
Our Recommendation to you
To overcome the challenges presented by a cloud-first strategy we are recommending our customers to implement a solution which can map and secure sensitive data across their hybrid environment.
The solutions we recommend address the following three elements:
Gain visibility of where your sensitive data lies
Gain visibility of all your sensitive and unstructured data, wherever it is hosted. Plus, additional insight into the people that have access to this sensitive data, showing immediately where data is being unnecessarily exposed.
Organise and apply controls around your data
Tools such as data classification and contextual analysis allow you to create predefined policies around your data. You can then measure attempted actions against these policies to see if if it differs to users normal behaviour.
Proactively respond to the risk of data exfiltration
If attempted actions are deemed suspicious and require attention, remediation features such as active alerts, blocking and quarantining will be automatically enforced to prevent data exfiltration.
What we can help with
Accidental Data Loss via Email
Data is easily lost via email with people pressing send to the wrong recipients and commonly with the wrong attachments. Using artificial intelligence, you can track users’ email patterns and notify them if they may be accidentally sending sensitive information outside the organisation.
Insider Risk Management
Employees can be a source of data exfiltration. This type of insider threat is more common than you might think, particularly when staff are due to be leaving the business. Our DLP solutions are designed to stop malicious data leaks by automatically blocking emails containing sensitive information trying to leave the organisation.
Threat Detection & Response
Constant monitoring of your regulated data allows you to detect which personal identifiable information is exposed. Once located, you can be confident that it is being automatically remediated, whilst alerts to users also provide real-time visibility of the response taking place.
Meet Regulatory Compliance
As DLP solutions block the extraction of sensitive data, many organisations rely on it for regulatory compliance and data security. It is key to upholding regulations such as GDPR, whilst educating users on how to stay compliant in the process.
Data Backup & Recovery
Don't let criminals hold your data hostage. With our backup solutions, recovering your data is as simple as eliminating the malware, deleting the criminally encrypted files, and restoring a good copy of your valuable data.
Data Classification
Our solutions will find and classify data with hundreds of built-in rules, to reduce the risk of sensitive data being lost.
“The solution from Xeretec and Barracuda has offered us many benefits, many more than I initially set out to achieve. The features within the Total Email Protection package have dramatically improved the security of our emails and data. I now feel confident and in control of our email security, allowing myself and my team to concentrate on other projects within the business.”
"Between Xeretec and Barracuda, I feel that we are in very good hands. The product is really excellent, and whenever there’s been a hiccup of any kind, the support we have got has been very responsive. I’m happy to recommend Barracuda Total Email Protection for anyone using Office 365”.
“I believe we now have the best-in-class email security solution for educating staff and have added a valuable layer of protection to bolster our existing investments. Deploying Tessian Defender has been a total win for Rutland. There is less work to do for us in IT and our staff now feel empowered to act as an additional layer of defence"
"Our experience with Arctic Wolf’s MDR platform has been nothing short of exceptional to date. The service will be an invaluable asset in fortifying our cyber security defences. None of this would have been possible without the expert guidance of Xeretec who understood our requirements and found a solution that best suited our needs"
