Overview

With the increased proliferation of global data privacy regulations has come a demand for effective cybersecurity. For many companies, that means prioritizing the identification, categorization, and protection of data to meet those compliance needs.

Data classification, which involves visual labelling, metadata application, and the use of technology like data discovery, helps organizations determine which data needs protecting, including critical unstructured data such as intellectual property.

When data is effectively classified, it helps foster a culture of security awareness across the organization. Classifying data gives it context, meaning users can learn how sensitive data should be handled and shared and in turn, make fewer mistakes, especially when that data is bound by policies based on its classification status.

Fortra’s data classification solutions apply both visual labels and metadata that are used to both enforce organization security policies, as well as seamlessly integrate with a range of security solutions, including data loss prevention, secure collaboration, and encryption, ensuring data is protected wherever it flows.
