The new DLP Buyer’s Guide for RSA Conference Expo 2013 has arrived. In creating this year’s Buyer’s Guide, we discovered some interesting findings. The first wasn’t all that surprising: many vendors are still trying to ride the coattails of the data loss prevention marketplace. Understandably, these companies want to be discovered by potential buyers in […]
So, RSA is just around the corner and like previous years, there are a number of DLP vendors that have nothing at all to do with “data loss prevention,” yet leverage this phrase to describe themselves. With all the hubbub about protecting data, many vendors just want their piece of the DLP pie, regardless of […]
Since “gartner dlp” is one of the leading search terms at DLP Experts, we’ve decided to provide links to sources for downloading the 2011 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Content-Aware Data Loss Prevention. Please be sure your copy is the most recent given the document was revised to correct some vendor information (for more details see […]
Recent trends show an increase in organizations searching for information on the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Data Loss Prevention (DLP). That tells us it’s that time of year again. Time for Gartner’s annual report on Content-Aware Data Loss Prevention, which, according to Gartner’s Magic Quadrant and MarketScopes information page has been slated for release Q2 […]
A new article from banktech.com says that companies in the financial services industry “are finding that data loss prevention is taking on a new urgency.” With the daily laundry list of new data breaches and the never-ending media coverage, it’s no wonder financial services companies–and those in many other industries–are taking note.

With Gartner estimating the Data Loss Prevention (DLP) market to reach $400 million in 2011[1] and with adoption of DLP technologies moving quickly down to the small to medium enterprise, DLP is no longer an unknown quantity. In spite of this progress, DLP remains a market shrouded by confusion over everything from the definition of […]
Again, I’ll take some heat from a number of vendors because of this post, but it’s something I’ve said before and DLP buyers need to be aware of it. In the past, I’ve spoken of the “perfect” DLP solution, but it’s unfair of me to use that word. So, I’ll retract the word “perfect” and […]
The title of this post is taken from the headline of a press release from SailPoint as reported in NetworkWorld. While it is a great headline, more importantly it should tell us that no organization’s data is safe, especially for those laying off employees. For me the takeaway from SailPoint’s survey is that companies should […]
It may surprise you to find that many DLP enforcement technology implementations are not even DLP–they’re DLD, data loss detection. Too many companies forget that the “P” stands for prevention. Blocking. Frankly, it’s not really the end user’s fault, rather the responsibility of the vendors. There are a couple critical elements at play in this […]

But the idea of DLP technologies can be sliced and mixed and mashed in so many ways, it is possible to purchase DLP enforcement technologies without […]
