Almost every company has a system for organizing file storage, which employees use regularly. Streamlining data storage in a corporate environment is not just about improving business processes; it is also about ensuring security. It is challenging to protect data if you do not know where it is stored, what it contains, its value, who owns it, who has access to it, and what its most significant threats are. This is where Data-Centric Audit and Protection (DCAP) systems come into play.

With cyber attacks increasing in frequency and damage, it’s more important than ever for organizations to understand that an incident of any scale is more of a “when” than an “if.” That means that, as part of a comprehensive security strategy, organizations should not only focus on keeping threats out but also ensure that if a threat turns into an incident, they’re prepared to swiftly respond and recover.

With the rise in cyberattacks, robust measures are essential to reduce attack surfaces and respond swiftly to threats. Compliance with regulations like the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) is crucial to prevent severe penalties and ensure business continuity. This blog post looks at DORA and introduces our white paper about this important new European regulation.
