Data Loss Prevention
Many organisations today do not have full knowledge of the sensitive data they have, where it is stored, how many copies of it exist, or how often it moves within and between their domains, partners, and customers. At the same time, complex compliance issues exist with regard to sensitive data that are a matter of law, regulation, contractual requirement, and mandate. Integralis can provide the help and specialist advice to organise the workflow of managing data discovery and applying relevant risk management strategies.
Data content and its existence can best be described as a ‘black hole’ in many organisations. The IT infrastructure provides a home to silos of data manufactured and used to solve local issues without overall planning control, standards, and ownership. This data sprawl has evolved over time due to many causes including rapid growth, mergers, consolidation, operational business units running as individual companies, quick fixes, long systems development life cycles, and an industry mindset over the last several decades that sensitive data management isn’t a priority. Simply put, the causes are endless.
The risk of losing sensitive data and the associated detrimental effect on an organisation together with punitive penalties imposed by regulatory authorities and law makes the Integralis offering of importance to IT staff and senior company executives.
