Effective defense against data breaches, data leaks and IP theft

Data Loss Prevention (DLP) is a strategy for ensuring your employees and vendors do not accidentally or intentionally share sensitive and company confidential data outside your organization. A DLP solution utilizes content discovery, digital inspection techniques and contextual analysis to identify and categorize sensitive data and IP. Next, policies and rules are created for data usage scenarios. The system then monitors user actions; validates them against the DLP rules and takes appropriate action if and when a rule condition is triggered. Actions could include stopping the action, blocking the user, alerting an administrator, requesting management override and more.

The causes, impacts and frequency of data leaks prove businesses need data loss prevention:

	Financial loss due to a data breach is huge
According to a 2018 study conducted by the Ponemon Institute, the average cost of a data breach rose by 6.4% with a range of $3.86M - $350M.
$3.86M	avg. cost of a breach
$350M	for larger breaches

	User Privilege Puts Sensitive Data at Risk
According to a survey of 400,000 member online by Cybersecurity Insiders published on The Insider Threat 2018 report.
37%	excess privilege
34%	increased amount of sensitive data

	Data leak incidents are growing at an alarming rate
The rate of data breaches in 2018 reported by federal survey respondents is 57%, more than 3x higher than what they measured 2 years ago.
300%	increase in data breaches in two years

	IP losses due to cyber crime is hurting companies globally
McAffe estimated that annual losses for the US from cyber crime targeting IP is about $12B and perhaps $50B to $60B world-wide.
~$60B	is the upper range for annual global loss in IP
