Cloud computing has changed the way we work, and mostly for the better. Widely available cloud applications let us create new documents, access our existing files, and communicate with our coworkers from just about anywhere. However, cloud computing has also created new data security and privacy concerns. A comprehensive CASB DLP policy can help address these concerns and keep your organization’s data exactly where it belongs.

Data is the lifeblood of modern organizations, and while watertight data protection policies are undeniably crucial, the need for robust data destruction methods has never been more pressing. Ultimately, all parties and vendors in your supply chain trust you to maintain the integrity of their data. Once that data is no longer needed, transparency about its whereabouts is vital.

Memory forensics is a critical aspect of digital forensics, allowing investigators to analyze the volatile memory of a system to uncover evidence of malicious activity, detect hidden malware, and reconstruct system events.

Data security is evolving. This evolution is making the need to understand what is going on with your data more critical. Teams need to be able to answer questions like, where is data being stored? Which vendor or team is using it? When is sensitive data being used? Where is data being sent?

NIST 800-171 revision 3 was released on May 14, 2024, prompting DoD to issue an indefinite class deviation for DFARS 252.204-7012, Safeguarding Covered Defense Information and Cyber Incident Reporting (DFARS 7012). US Defense Industrial Base (DIB) contractors must now comply with NIST SP 800-171 revision 2 rather than the version in effect at the time the solicitation is issued, as was previously required.

AI is everywhere—but how can you be sure that your data isn’t being used to train the AI models that power your favorite SaaS apps like Slack? This topic reached a fever pitch on Hacker News last week, when a flurry of Slack users vented their frustrations about the messaging app’s obtuse privacy policy. The main issue?

Endpoint Data Loss Prevention (DLP) solutions are critical tools for organizations looking to safeguard sensitive information from insider threats, unintentional leaks, and external attacks. These solutions monitor, detect, and block the transfer of valuable data outside company networks, ensuring compliance with data protection regulations. In this post, we’ll explore the top eight endpoint DLP solutions that offer robust security features, ease of use, and integration capabilities.
