MANAGED SECURITY
PROGRAMMES
( MSPS ) DESIGNED SPECIFICALLY TO PROTECT
SENSITIVE DATA ARE A GREAT
SOLUTION FOR SMES . data visibility , IP protection and compliance programmes . We explain these benefits in more detail below .
Data discovery
Data discovery helps you inventory the data that lives within your business . You can ’ t protect what you don ’ t have a handle on , therefore , before you can protect your data you need to know where it is and have a truly accurate view of its whereabouts . Sensitive data information is critical to your business and its security , this data can be sat in silos or housed in areas you have no control or visibility of such as laptops , servers , networkattached storage , cloud etc .
Data classification
Data classification helps you understand what your data profile looks like and why it matters . This enables you to empower your data protection policies and accurately regulate your business data . Through data classification you can label your data to help drive data protection policies . Using a blend of content from your files such as keywords , phrases , patterns , etc . or context such as attributes of the file like application , location , user , etc . you get a more detailed understanding of what your data profile looks like .
Communication protection
Having digital touchpoints with the outside world , via various forms , can be dangerous from a data security perspective . Web browsing and email communications are the biggest culprits . It ’ s imperative to have control over sensitive materials and the ability to see , alert and even stop , in real-time , sensitive materials from being emailed . This is a tall order but very achievable with the right technology through an MSP .
Visibility of data movement
Keeping tabs on the movement of data and the visibility of where your data ends up and originates is a challenge for a company of any size , in particular an SME . MSPs can help you track tasks that happen multiple times in most organisations and are part of our everyday working life . These include things such as copy and paste , printing and USB / removable media .
