Solving Data Security for the Anywhere Workforce

According to some estimates, when sensitive data is breached, the average cost to the organization is nearly $5 million. However, the risk related to Intellectual Property (IP) can be much greater. 

IP includes any proprietary data, such as pharmaceutical formulas, schematics, GIS data, source code and more. If this data leaves our control that could mean the loss of competitive advantage, damage to brand reputation and loss of business, or, in the worst scenario, could put the organization out of business altogether.

Understanding the Work-From-Anywhere Risk

 In an effort to be more productive, people often interact with sensitive data on cloud, web and GenAI applications that they shouldn’t. And sometimes, there are even disgruntled employees who do this intentionally. The reality is that modern web security tools must account for this opaque, fast-moving use of data.

Enhancing Data Security on the Web

The modern organization needs fast web access anywhere their users need to work, with industry-leading data security capabilities across everywhere that sensitive data may reside or move.

Very few in the security industry effectively address all facets of this problem. Many have limited capabilities for data security that don’t scale and introduce unacceptable rates of false positives. Some are limited due to truly being useful with only one deployment style—cloud enforcement or on-premises enforcement. And some have limitations for roaming users who need to work at client sites whose network security can block proxies, or in countries with a national firewall that can likewise block proxies.
