A new guide to the DLP market according to Gartner®| Forcepoint

Every bit the amount of data continues to grow exponentially and the size and value of information breeches also continues to grow
– nosotros see forwards-looking organizations searching for DLP solutions that go across traditional DLP methods.  Organizations need a new blazon of DLP solution that provides next-generation data security capabilities.

DLP is a mature engineering, but the emergence of tools with a focus on cloud and insider risk management use cases has provided SRM leaders with the option to invest in a next-generation data security tool.” *

This report notes that in 2021 Gartner has fielded 29% more client inquiries on the topic of DLP than in 2020.  Beneath are some peak reasons we also see in the market place from the report that speak to the growing involvement in DLP

   “Identify DLP capabilities to address data risks and business needs.”
  
  In our opinion, DLP vendors have been so focused on content and are so data-axial that they miss the of import context of user behavior.  Non every user is the same nor are all data exfiltration incidents the aforementioned.  With Risk-Adaptive Protection, Forcepoint has been helping customers modernize their DLP by exploring this growing area of monitoring risky user behavior.  It helps organizations combine the context of user beliefs with DLP policies to dramatically increase enforcement accurateness and reduce false positives/negatives.  As stated in the report, “Today, the DLP market is evolving as we run into a convergence of IRM and DLP tools. This approach utilizes content-inspection capabilities with behavioral analytics and motorcar learning and too helps in reducing the number of false positives.”

  “Use data classification technology, as it is fundamental to data security and compliance efforts.”
  
  Nosotros agree that accurate nomenclature is disquisitional to successful DLP deployments.  It’s often said that you lot can’t protect what y’all can’t see.  Forcepoint DLP has built in integration with leading classifier solutions to ensure a high level of information visibility. We believe this so strongly that we’ve besides recently released Forcepoint Classification powered by Getvisibility.  We’ve seen a tremendously positive response from our customers with this new classification offering. Information technology leverages bogus intelligence and machine learning to deliver highly accurate classification suggestions and tin fifty-fifty exist used forth with Microsoft Purview Information Protection (MPIP) to increase the accuracy of MPIP classifications for even stronger security and compliance.

   DLP deployments that encompass all the security egress vectors (email, cloud applications, web, network, and endpoints) are essential to protect data both on-prem and in the cloud.  Forcepoint has developed our product based on the principle of “DLP Everywhere” – providing visibility and control everywhere your people work, and where your data resides. Nosotros have developed a DLP solution that simplifies the complexity of hybrid environments, providing customers control beyond these environments from a unmarried unified policy.

  “Employ consulting and managed services to shorten the time to value and augment lean Information technology and security departments.”
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Forcepoint Professional Services has proven to aid customers with not simply initial DLP deployments but too to migrate off legacy DLP solutions that are no longer meeting their needs.  We’ve been able to help customers reach time to value in as petty as 6 weeks with complete deployments across some of the most complicated organizations.  Bank check out our webinar half-dozen Stages for a Successful DLP Migration to learn how your organisation can shorten your fourth dimension to value with your adjacent DLP deployment.
