Most customers are first referred to DRS in its capacity as an IT security provider; however, DRS is an organisation which secures your IT infrastructure, enabling your organisation to conduct business without compromise from both external and/or internal threats.
Customers often respond that they already have anti-virus, firewall and systems in place and believe their environment is secure. But is it really? DRS protects organisations from external and/or internal threats. Most organisations don't take into account that one of the biggest threats their business face on a daily basis is its human resources.
The loss of confidential information and or business-critical information can affect your business in many ways. The consequences can be dire, as is risk of the following: Loss of trade secrets, loss of clientele information, PCI non-compliance, brand reputation, and last but not least, the value of your organisation's share price if it is listed on the Stock Exchange. In simple terms, it may affect your bottom line so much it could seriously impact your business.
DRS advises its customers to use Symantec DLP - Data Loss Prevention.
DRS, by implementing Symantec DLP, delivers a unified solution to discover, monitor, and protect confidential data wherever it is stored or used across endpoint, network, and storage systems - whether the users are on - or off the corporate network. By measurably reducing risk, Symantec gives organisations new confidence to demonstrate compliance while protecting their customers, brand, and intellectual property.
A data loss prevention solution should help organisations answer four fundamental questions:
* Where is your confidential data?
* How is it being used?
* How do you prevent data loss?
* How do you manage all of the above?
Discover where confidential data is stored:
* Symantec Data Loss Prevention Network Discover quickly discovers exposed confidential data wherever it is stored with the broadest coverage of enterprise data repositories including file servers, databases, document and records management, e-mail repositories, and Web content and applications.
* Symantec Data Loss Prevention Endpoint Discover scans for confidential data stored on the endpoint, including laptops, desktops, and workstations at remote offices in order to inventory, secure, or relocate that data.
Monitor how confidential data is being used:
* Symantec Data Loss Prevention Network Monitor inspects all network communications such as e-mail, IM, Web, FTP, P2P and generic TCP for confidential data in violation of data security policy.
* Symantec Data Loss Prevention Endpoint Prevent monitors files downloaded to local drives, copied to USB or other removable media devices, burned to CD/DVDs, transferred over e-mail, IM or FTP, copied or pasted, and printed or faxed electronically.
Protect and prevent confidential data loss:
* Symantec Data Loss Prevention Network Protect automatically protects stored data with automatic quarantine, copy, and remove.
* Symantec Data Loss Prevention Network Prevent proactively stops network communications from being sent in violation of data security policy, conditionally removes content, or tags messages with confidential data to be routed to an encryption gateway for secure delivery and encryption policy enforcement.
* Symantec Data Loss Prevention Endpoint Prevent also blocks files from being downloaded to local drives, copied to USB or other removable media devices, burned to CD/DVDs, copied or pasted to a drive, and printed or faxed electronically.
Manage and enforce unified data security policies:
* Symantec Data Loss Prevention Enforce Platform automatically enforces universal DLP policies with a centralised platform for detection, incident remediation workflow and automation, reporting, system management and security.
