Data Loss Prevention
In the Information Age, your organization’s data is one of its most prized
possessions. Your organization spends a lot of money making data available to
your employees, customers, and partners over email and the Web. This increased
access poses challenges for information security professionals to figure out how
to prevent the malicious or unintentional distribution of sensitive and proprietary
information.
possessions. Your organization spends a lot of money making data available to
your employees, customers, and partners over email and the Web. This increased
access poses challenges for information security professionals to figure out how
to prevent the malicious or unintentional distribution of sensitive and proprietary
information.
The Cisco IronPort Email Security appliance secures your data by providing an
integrated data loss prevention (DLP) scanning engine and DLP policy templates
designed RSA Security Inc. to identify and protect sensitive data. The RSA Email
DLP feature protects your organization’s information and intellectual property
and enforces regulations defined by laws and industry standards by preventing
users from unintentionally emailing sensitive data. You define what kind of data
is not allowed to be emailed by your employees and the actions that the appliance
takes when it occurs, such as quarantining the message and sending a notification
to a compliance officer.
