In today’s evolving digital landscape, businesses face new security challenges—from the widespread adoption of cloud services to the secure management of data used in GenAI applications. With sensitive information constantly being shared, stored, and accessed across devices, networks, and applications, traditional perimeter-based security models have become ineffective. Organizations must ensure that their security measures evolve alongside their expanding digital ecosystems.
When evaluating data security strategies, businesses should consider:
Fasoo Enterprise DRM (FED) is a zero-trust-based document security solution that provides persistent security for sensitive documents – at rest, in transit, and in use – on any device at any time. By encrypting files and applying granular access controls, it prevents unauthorized editing, printing, and sharing, ensuring only authorized users have access to sensitive content both inside and outside the organizations.
FED extends protection beyond encryption with screen security (FSS), print security (FSP), and mobile security (FED-M), safeguarding sensitive data on screens, printouts, and mobile devices.
Persistent File Protection
Protect, control, track, and manage any document format, including file derivatives,
with strong encryption and dynamic access controls. Regardless of where files are stored or shared, only authorized users can access the content.
Simplified Security with Centralized Management
Automatically apply security policies when users create, download, or share files from internal repositories, cloud storage, or other information systems – without disrupting workflows.
Optimized Security with Exception Policy Management
Minimize the impact on productivity by managing exceptions efficiently. Leveraging behavioral analytics, fine-tune security policies to ensure they are optimized for both security and user convenience.
Fasoo Enterprise DRM is the industry’s leading file-centric security solution, providing protection, control, and tracking of sensitive documents throughout their lifecycle. With advanced behavioral analytics and actionable insights, FED simplifies security management and delivers robust, adaptive protection for business-critical files.
Maintain client confidentiality
Protect sensitive data from public LLMs
Secure sensitive design files from insider threats
Challenges
Every law firm must strive to maintain client confidentiality. However, with the many case and content management systems, this can be challenging.
Solutions
FED encrypts data and applies dynamic access controls, limiting users’ ability to view, edit, print, screenshot, and share sensitive documents. It ensures that authorized users access sensitive information, continuously validating user access based on security policies.
Benefits
Fasoo safeguards sensitive client and case data, minimizing the risk of violating bar association or regulatory rules. It enables secure internal and client file sharing, controlling who can view, edit, print, and capture screens of sensitive documents. Users and administrators can set access time limits for shared files and revoke access instantly, regardless of location.
Challenges
A marketing team uses public generative AI models to create new content by uploading company data, including sensitive information, from various documents.
Solutions
While creating a private, internal LLM can mitigate this risk, a better approach is to protect the data itself, using Fasoo Enterprise DRM. FED encrypts sensitive data, so it can’t be uploaded, copied, or pasted into the public LLM.
Benefits
FED encrypts all sensitive files and documents, preventing users from uploading sensitive data to public LLMs. This allows public LLMs to generate content without compromising security and privacy. Administrators can control who can view, edit, print, copy, paste, and capture screens of sensitive files, protecting IP and privacy-regulated data from being exploited by competitors.
Challenges
A discontented engineer at a manufacturing company starts looking for a position with competitors.
Solutions
FED automatically encrypts and applies protection policies to CAD and other sensitive files upon saving.
Benefits
FED protects IP, so competitors can’t exploit it by applying encryption at the file level while controlling who can view, edit, print, and take a screen capture of sensitive information. Employees can securely share files internally or externally, apply an access time limit, revoke access immediately, regardless of location, and track and manage the files throughout the document lifecycle.

Understand the key distinctions between the three predominant data-centric security methods: data flow-centric, location-centric and file-centric, and learn why a file-centric method works as a frontline defense.
Fasoo Enterprise DRM (FED) is a core solution of Fasoo’s Data Security Platform that protects sensitive data based on a Zero Trust approach. It encrypts files at creation and applies persistent, identity-based policies. Accessing a protected file requires Zero Trust authentication, ensuring that only verified users can use the data. This prevents data breaches, supports compliance, and enables secure collaboration across environments.
Digital Rights Management (DRM) describes the tools, systems, and data-centric process used to automatically encrypt files and control file access privileges dynamically of unstructured data at rest, in use, and in motion. In the consumer space, DRM aims to control the use, modification, and distribution of copyrighted material, such as computer software and multimedia files.
In business, Enterprise DRM ensures data-centric document protection inside and outside the IT perimeter and along an organization’s supply chain to protect sensitive information against theft or misuse by insiders and unauthorized access from the outside.
Data Loss Prevention (DLP) refers to a set of security strategies, tools, and techniques designed to prevent the unauthorized access, sharing, or leakage of sensitive data outside an organization’s network. DLP systems monitor and control data in various forms – whether it’s being used, transferred, or stored – across different devices or environments. By using predefined policies, DLP solutions identify and block the transmission of sensitive data like personal information, financial details, or intellectual property to unauthorized destinations, ensuring compliance with legal regulations and reducing the risk of data breaches.
DRM and DLP are both security technologies but they focus on different aspects of data protection. While they may seem similar, understanding their core difference is key to choosing the right solution for your organization.
DLP primarily focuses on protecting sensitive data by preventing it from leaving the organization’s network. It aims to secure data in transit or at rest and ensure that confidential information doesn’t leak through channels like emails or external devices. DRM, on the other hand, provides a more comprehensive focus by protecting the actual content itself. DRM controls how data is used, accessed, and shared across its entire lifecycle – whether the data is inside or outside the organization. This makes DRM particularly effective in protecting intellectual property and sensitive information at every stage, regardless of its location.
DLP uses predefined rules to monitor, detect, and block sensitive data from being transferred or accessed inappropriately. It reacts to potential threats and enforces security policies to prevent data breaches. DRM takes a proactive approach, embedding protection directly into the content itself. DRM ensures that files, documents, and other digital assets are secure from unauthorized access or distribution, including setting permissions for viewing, editing, printing, and sharing.
DLP is effective at monitoring and restricting data flows within an organization. However, once the data is shared externally, DLP’s protection ends. DRM offers broader protection by securing data no matter where it travels. This makes DRM ideal for protecting sensitive data across multiple environments, including external collaboration platforms, email exchanges, and cloud storage.
