Clearswift’s Endpoint DLP (Data Loss Prevention) solution leverages the same Deep Content Inspection Engine (DCI) which is used in its core SECURE Gateway products. The DCI can be used to scan saved files (referred to as data at rest (DAR)) on various endpoints, to identify potential data breach risks or non-compliance with company policy. For example, there may be spreadsheets containing PCI or PII data, or documents containing confidential company Intellectual Property that needs to be stored in a specific location or secured in a certain way. Once critical information is ‘discovered’, there are options as to what can be done next.

Learn about the three key components to endpoint data loss prevention; device control, content transfer control and encryption, and discovering critical information at rest.

Last month, British Airways was hacked and 380,000 payment details were stolen.

Optical Character Recognition (OCR) as a technology has been around for a long time. It inspects images for text and then decodes them. While the human eye is fantastic at recognizing text, be it upside down or at an angle, it is computationally intensive to do this by machine on a regular basis. However, new algorithms now exist to deal with skew (angled text) as well as being able to handle multiple languages. The latest versions of Clearswift’s email product portfolio – the SECURE Email Gateway (SEG), SECURE Exchange Gateway (SXG) and ARgon – have a new cost option for OCR to mitigate this risk.

When taking into consideration all sizes of businesses in the UK, nearly half had suffered a breach...

In May, multiple organizations including the NHS, Spain’s Telefónica and Deutsche Bahn were struck with what is arguably the world’s most publicized cyber-attack. Within a day, the ransomware cryptoworm...
