Defend Data

Analyze user behavior and content across all channels to defend data

Overview

Data doesn’t lose itself. People lose it.


Careless users mishandle it. Malicious users walk out the door with it. And compromised user accounts are hijacked to steal it. Legacy data protection solutions are not only siloed and limited to one channel, but they also fail to leverage user behavioral data. Information security is a people problem. A new approach is needed.
