Preventing Data Loss with Host-based Intrusion Prevention Systems
A new article on stopping data loss with host based IPS is now available in our Essentials Series: Messaging and Web Security - Volume 2. From the article:
Data is a valuable asset and some people out there want to get their hands on your data. At least that is the working assumption prudent IT professionals take. There are just too many stories in the news about data losses due to hackers, disgruntled employees, unintentional mistakes, and malware-infected devices to not take the threat seriously. Most organizations, of course, have multiple layers of security measures in place that reduce the risk of data loss. This article will examine some of the ways data loss occurs and describe how host-based intrusion protection can mitigate the risk of data loss.
