Data Security Posture Management
Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) platforms that discover and classify sensitive data across cloud and on-premises environments and assess its posture and risk.
Data Access Governance
Data access governance tools that govern and monitor access to data through entitlements, access reviews, and data-activity monitoring.
Data Loss Prevention
Data Loss Prevention (DLP) solutions for preventing unauthorized data exfiltration, detecting data breaches, and enforcing data security policies.
Data Protection Tools FAQ
Common questions about Data Protection tools, selection guides, pricing, and comparisons.
DLP (Data Loss Prevention) enforces policies to prevent sensitive data from leaving the organization through email, endpoints, or cloud services. DSPM (Data Security Posture Management) focuses on discovering where sensitive data exists across your environment, who has access, and whether it is properly secured. Think of DSPM as finding and classifying your data, and DLP as preventing it from leaking.
Data classification tools scan files, databases, and cloud storage to automatically identify and label sensitive data such as PII, PHI, financial records, and intellectual property. They use pattern matching, machine learning, and contextual analysis to categorize data by sensitivity level, then apply labels or tags that other security tools (DLP, access controls) can enforce.
GDPR compliance typically requires: data discovery and classification tools to know what personal data you hold, data privacy management for consent tracking and data subject access requests, DLP to prevent unauthorized data sharing, encryption for data at rest and in transit, and backup solutions for the right to data portability. A DSPM platform can provide unified visibility across these requirements.
