In order to serve as a trusted advisor to our clients, we need to stay up to speed with the latest IT trends and solutions. To achieve that, our team of IT experts attends weekly training sessions conducted by various IT solution providers. Based on our extensive experience and sales volume with the suppliers, we receive exclusive, direct and usually in-person training from these suppliers. Our Tech Talks blog series offers a snapshot of these educational sessions.
Do you have an in-depth understanding of who’s accessing and utilizing your company’s data, as well as how exactly they’re using it? If not, you could be at risk for an accidental or intentional data breach caused by one of your team members, especially if some or all of them are currently working from home. While endpoint and network managed detection and response (MDR) solutions can alert you if a breach occurs, it’s preferable to proactively stop incidents before they start.
One of our strategic partners – a security software supplier – recently met with our team of trusted technology advisors to discuss how they can help businesses prevent breaches and enforce security policies effectively, whether your end users are logging in from the office, their homes or their smartphones while on the go. If that piques your interest, here’s a brief overview of this provider’s background and what they have to offer.
Provider Overview
Since 2018, this Illinois-based software supplier has helped IT service providers and in-house IT support teams monitor end user behavior and prevent security incidents from the inside out with their advanced data loss prevention (DLP) and endpoint protection platform. They have experience working with clients with high-level cybersecurity needs (e.g., organizations in the healthcare and financial industries) and can assist with routine audits as well as compliance with regulations such as HIPAA and GLBA.
Featured Offering: Proactive DLP at the End User Level
This supplier’s cloud-delivered DLP end user monitoring software stops leaks from web uploads (e.g., cloud storage platforms), removable drives, printed documents and email attachments. With cross-platform reach, this solution tracks all user behavior for the entire time that they’re logged on.
The supplier will work with your IT and HR departments to develop security policies that you can then enforce via the software at the OS and application layer. For instance, if an end user isn’t allowed to open a particular file that isn’t relevant to their role, the platform will prevent them from doing so.
In addition to preventing data loss and overall ensuring security and compliance, this solution offers the following notable benefits and features:
- Scalability and flexibility, with the option to monitor anywhere from five to 50,000 end users
- Real-time insights into end user behavior
- Increased visibility (literally) with the ability to screenshot viewed info
- A single centralized dashboard for data collection and storage
- Forensics and audit features
