Data is an asset to every organization and all measures are taken to protect it from unauthorized access and loss. Data loss prevention is detecting sensitive data violations, data transmissions and prevent them by monitoring, detecting and blocking sensitive data while in-use or in-motion or at-rest.In modern business world, almost all organizations use technologies to manage their sensitive information. There is a requirement to protect such a key component of the organization cannot be overlooked. Data Leakage Prevention has been one of the most effective ways of prevent Data Loss. DLP detects and prevents unlicensed access to copy or send sensitive data, both intentionally and unintentionally. This generally happens by people who are authorized to access the sensitive information. DLP is designed to detect critical data breach in real time. This can be achieved by data monitoring. Data Loss Prevention is designed to fit with the organizational structure. It helps the organization protect both structured data and unstructured data. The data may be Personnel’s personal information, financial information, business secrets, merger and acquisitions, health records etc. DLP technology is not only for large organizations but can also be used by other sector processing sensitive information like banking, Health care, aviation, government etc.
