Enterprise DRM and DLP: Comparison Made Simple

Like digital rights management (DRM) for the enterprise, data loss prevention (DLP) solutions have recently seen a resurgence. Both aim to protect sensitive documents against leakage and exfiltration. Those looking to deploy or expand one or the other frequently weigh DRM vs. DLP. But how helpful is this “either/or” perspective really? * For starters, it risks missing one crucial difference between these two approaches to document protection. Other than DRM, DLP isn’t designed...

The potential landmines for compliance with CCPA is pretty high. One of the first things is that a lot of companies don’t know how to interpret the law. We saw that with GDPR for the year prior to it going into effect. CCPA is a lot like it, but there are likely still questions. Secondly, is the DSRs (Data Subject Requests) or the right to be forgotten. People are very in tune with their...

The phrase “It takes a Village to raise a child” is true. But it is also true that it takes a team to develop a data governance and policy management strategy! Teamwork is important when developing a data security strategy. As part of that process, data governance and policy management needs to be part of the equation. It’s becoming more and more clear that organizations struggle with policy management – particularly with unstructured data....

Last week, Fasoo sponsored and participated in the ISMG Cybersecurity Summit in New York City. It was a great event, well attended and in the Theater District and the ISMG folks were awesome to work with! As part of our sponsorship, Fasoo had a 10 minute Tech Spotlight where, rather than providing a “death by powerpoint” tech dump, we thought it would be good to get everyone thinking about working together as a team...

In our last post, we said “Without granular access controls, you can’t prevent a user from copying data from a file and pasting it into an email, for example. If you only encrypt a file and do not prevent copy and paste or printing, a user can easily compromise security.” And we meant it. Now, you might be asking yourself “What does it mean… granular access controls?” And the answer is simple. Granular permissions...

Picture it. Your employees access sensitive and confidential customer information every day so they can do their jobs. Once the data leaves the protected confines of an information repository, file share or cloud-based service, your authorized users can share it with anyone, do anything with it and compromise your customer’s confidential information or your intellectual property. As a result, you may be subject to regulatory fines, not to mention losing customers because they can’t...

To think about stronger data security and privacy protection! But first, I want you to think about the millions of heroes who have served our country. As we approach the 4th of July, I wanted to take a moment to recognize the heroes in the many branches of the U.S. Military. From myself, and on behalf of the entire team at Fasoo, THANK YOU for your service! And while thinking about those who have...

I have to say, being on the other side of the Gartner Security and Risk Management Summit was a combination of exciting, fun, and educational. The cool thing is that I still got to get up on stage and the bonus was to see all the hard work that goes into exhibiting. I think the Fasoo team did a fantastic job setting up and manning the booth. At our booth at the Summit, we...

This has been on my mind. A lot. Every day, I open my email to find news about how a company needs to pay a fine or a fee to either an individual or a regulator because data was leaked or stolen. This one in particular caught my eye because it is a classic example of data being accessed by likely the wrong individual and shared with someone who should definitely not have been...

I sure hope so! Well, the one year anniversary of GDPR is upon us and the challenge of effective, easily managed data security and regulatory compliance is palpable. So, what did Fasoo do? We developed Data Radar (well, it has been around for a long time now) to deliver a unified unstructured data security and privacy approach that addresses the challenge of the evolving, complex compliance regulations like GDPR and CCPA across verticals ranging...
