How to Detect and Prevent Data Loss Due to Remote Work in 2022?

 Rapid digitalization of businesses and operations is a raging river capable of flushing away old relics and paving the wave for bringing new innovations. The digitized ambitions of enterprises have been keen to allow more meaningful digital experiences through the massive adoption of data analytics.

The new world of connectivity is leveraging large volumes of data to integrate sensitive customer data, apps, servers, workstations, and various other devices. There is also an increased dependence on data stored in the cloud digital value chains to drive connection agility and digital devices driven by Blockchain, IoT, BigData, and mobile computing.

The value of your data is more than ever before, bolstering its value exponentially due to the higher level of visibility across digital platforms. This exponential use and leverage of huge data volumes have vividly increased opportunities for theft, fraud, leaks, and accidental exposure, making it more vulnerable.

Data Loss Prevention (DLP) is some super-fun, high-tech equipment that can be installed on a corporate network so as to ensure that sensitive data remains securely within the corporate network.

DLP technology helps you to monitor and protect data at rest, in use, or in motion across the organizational environment. DLP solutions can help organizations drive effective data security policies through a detailed and circumstantial analysis of data transactions to detect and prevent unauthorized use.

You can also avoid accidental data leaks and mitigate theft risks due to outside attacks and deliberate misappropriation by insiders. A DLP system can leverage a set of rules to identify information, detect any anomalous transfer of data and provide a comprehensive understanding of data so you know where your company's most sensitive data lies and you can then protect it based on priority.

Your endpoint activity can get monitored on a continuous basis to keep an eye out for emails, attachments, and USB drives. That way, you can avoid data loss due to theft of laptop/mobile devices as well as fire, system failures, and accidental deletion.
