Genesis Tech provides Data Loss Prevention (DLP) solutions to prevent the loss of sensitive data from corporate networks. DLP is a strategy to ensure that end users do not send sensitive or critical information outside the corporate network. It is also used to describe software products that help a network administrator control what data end users can transfer.

DLP software products use business rules to classify and protect confidential and critical information to prevent unauthorized sharing of data that could put the organization at risk. With the adoption of DLP driven by insider threats and more rigorous state privacy laws, these tools can monitor and control endpoint activities and filter data streams on the corporate network to protect data in motion.

Implementing DLP solutions offers several benefits:

1. Identify and control the movement of sensitive data in organizations.
2. Ensure proper channels for the movement of sensitive data.
3. Label data based on its sensitivity and handling requirements.
4. Limit an organization's data loss.

Data Loss Prevention (DLP) security systems identify, monitor, and protect data in use (endpoint actions), data in motion (network actions), and data at rest (data storage). These systems detect and prevent unauthorized use and transmission of confidential information. Vendors refer to this as Data Leak Prevention, Information Leak Detection and Prevention (ILDP), Information Leak Prevention (ILP), Content Monitoring and Filtering (CMF), Information Protection and Control (IPC), or Extrusion Prevention System.

DLP security works through deep content inspection and contextual security analysis of transactions, including attributes of originator, data object, medium, timing, recipient/destination, and more, with centralized management tools.

The business benefits of DLP security include comprehensive data protection, prevention of data breaches and leakage, compliance demonstration, and risk reduction from external attacks and insider threats. Data Loss Prevention Security is crucial for protecting both your data and that of your customers.
