Even after all of these years, DLP (Data Loss Prevention) solutions have failed to prevent databreach growth. One of the main problems of DLP is that the solutions only block or encrypt datathat tries to leave the endpoint.

Given the sensitivity levels of data housed in the cloud, many end-customers are pushing their SaaS software vendors to agree not only to a general data protection requirement but specifically to deploying […]

Download the White Paper Aside from a few new features each year, the core of the Data Loss Prevention marketplace has been pretty well-baked for a number of years. That’s why it surprises me still to hear new buyers of DLP frustrated to find that they will need to have an ICAP-capable proxy in order […]
