Many organizations integrate their DLP solution with Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) to extend DLP capabilities to the cloud. CASB DLP integration helps enforce existing DLP policies to the data that moves in the cloud. CASB will monitor the traffic that is coming to and from the cloud and enforce DLP policies to that traffic.

Data is an essential part of any organization. As business-critical data is increasingly stored online, an organization’s health is dependentontheprotectionofthatonlinedata.Ifsensitivedata is leaked or stolen by malicious actors, confidential information canbeexposed.Thebreachofconfidentialbusinessinformation can be detrimental to an organization’s finances andreputation. While the threat of losing sensitive data will always be apparent at some level, adding cybersecurity solutions such as data loss prevention (DLP) can help minimize these risks. Many security- conscious organizations already have DLP in their environment, however, if it has been reviewed or updated recently, critical data may be left out and at greater risk of anattack. Shifting to theCloud Over the past several years many organizations have been undergoing a digital transformation. Even before the pandemic, organizations were moving data to the cloud to promote efficiency and sharing between several office locations. Now, organizations are adopting the cloud even more to accommodate remote workers. DLP solutions that already exist within your environment will not extend to the cloud without additional services.

For example, if your company has invested in new software, added a significant numberofnewemployees,orchangedsystemsinplace,it’sbest to review your DLP program. Experts will help you identify sensitive data and what level of sensitivity that data has, they will then assign policies to each type of data. We often find that when reviewing DLP policies, new data has been added and was not previously being protected by existing DLP policies. For this reason, frequent DLP services in addition to having a DLP solution more effectively prevent dataloss.
