Data security and protection solutions

Protect data across hybrid clouds and simplify compliance requirements

Protect critical data

Data is the lifeblood of every organization. As your organization’s data footprint expands across various cloud platforms, SaaS applications and endpoints, your risk of a data breach also increases. Cybercriminals are seeking to exploit security vulnerabilities to access sensitive data that is now spread out across multiple cloud data stores.

Data security and compliance are two sides of the same coin. Complex compliance regulations, such as DORA, GDPR, CCPA, SOX, PCI, HIPAA and others, all have the same purpose—ensuring that data and privacy is adequately guarded.

Comprehensive data security solutions, whether implemented on premises or in a hybrid cloud, help you gain greater visibility and insights to investigate and remediate cyberthreats. These solutions can enforce near-real-time controls and help you manage regulatory compliance needs.

Solutions

Data security and protection solutions

The digital era has increased the use of cloud infrastructure and cloud applications for every organization. The expanding data footprint, continued digital transformation and cloud migration have increased the organization's attack surface. As a result, while organizations have gained scale and efficiency, they now also have a greater need for data security. Organizations need data security that covers their data on premises, in the cloud infrastructure and in SaaS applications—and that integrates with their enterprise security systems.

With data breaches costing global organizations millions on average, it's critical to understand all the stores for structured and unstructured data, where they reside, who can access them, what needs to be encrypted, what is the flow of this data, and what potential misconfigurations exist. These foundational solutions lay the groundwork for robust data security posture management.

  • Monitor data activity and accelerate auditing and reporting
  • Automate compliance policy enforcement and centralize data activity
  • Encrypt sensitive data in all states and across environments
  • Integrate discovery and classification of structured and unstructured data
  • Identify vulnerabilities in your data environments
  • Centralize and simplify encryption key management
