Data Privacy Tips | Cybersecurity Insights #13

Cyberattacks that target personally identifiable information (PII) are a moral concern in that they have the ability to cause harm to real people. As cyber criminals increase their focus on these attacks, regulators are responding by implementing privacy regulations to protect data.

Thwart attackers and stay audit-ready with these three steps:

1. See everything: “Assets” encompasses devices, data, users, and apps – and asset management is a form of intelligence that benefits the whole business. Pinpoint where assets are, and how they’re being used.

2. Analyze the risk: Locate pockets of sensitive data using lexicographic crawling to understand your organization’s unique risk.

3. Apply rapid response: Reach devices with fine-tuned commands to restore privacy protections and meet legal requirements that demand proof of protection and validation that you can mitigate exposures quickly.

With everything in view, and the ability to crawl for sensitive data, IT and security teams can analyze their risk and respond in an instant to restore safeguards and protect sensitive data.
