Data Loss Prevention
Waypoint Solutions Group provides securePOINT Data Loss Prevention (DLP) for your organization – regardless of where your employees or your critical information reside. It can scan every file on every PC in your organization to uncover where confidential Data At Rest resides as well as prevent confidential Data In Motion from leaking out (via email / attachments, USB devices, web postings, etc.). In today’s increasingly mobile world, where employees and contractors alike demand instant access to corporate assets and confidential information from remote locations, protecting that information can be extremely difficult. Traditional network-based solutions have porous perimeters. Removable media? Webmail? Instant Messaging? All these escape the control of many of our competitors. Thus, they offer only limited “data loss prevention”.

Waypoint’s securePOINT Data Loss Prevention (DLP) is superior because it can identify and protect sensitive information no matter where it’s being accessed. It operates pre-emptively to keep your organization continuously ahead of today’s constantly evolving threat landscape. Waypoint’s securePOINT DLP is installed at the desktop level and reports back over encrypted HTTPS protocols, instead of over the network. This is crucial since it streamlines the process of detecting and blocking any unauthorized attempts to move data outside the organization. Simply put, securePOINT DLP builds a protective circumference around each computer in your organization, rather than just network traffic. This means securePOINT DLP is more effective and comprehensive in securing your confidential data than network-based solutions.

securePOINT DLP uncovers your risks by scanning all of the PCs in your organization to show you where confidential information resides (Data At Rest).

securePOINT DLP prevents confidential Data In Motion from leaking out of your organization via webmail, attachments, web postings or USB devices.

securePOINT DLP’s patented Single Agent architecture allow you to identify, track, and control who accesses your data, what data they access, and what they can and cannot do with that data. Most importantly, all of this is done with an application that can be deployed and configured in a matter of minutes with a minimum of allocated resources. Other DLP solutions? They can take weeks or months to install, require training courses for policy creation and create significant strains (financial and operational) on the organization.

Confidential data is often lost through errors and oversights, rather than malicious intent. For example, the wrong recipient is mistakenly added to a group email containing sensitive company financial data or customer credit card information. securePOINT not only blocks the email from getting into the wrong hands, it is also configured to “coach and educate” employees to adopt due care and best practices, as set by your company. It lets users and administrators choose the appropriate trade-off between a high detection rate on one hand and a low level of false positives on the other.
securePOINT DLP’s integrated Removable Media Monitoring and Control strikes the ideal balance between protection of a business’s assets and the efficiency of day-to-day operations. securePOINT DLP blocks the copying of any file to removable media (USB drive, iPod, external hard drive) based on the file’s content, and the employee’s job function. So, an employee’s computer or user profile can be set, using securepOINT DLP, to allow copying of email, attachments and attempts to write to removable media, but not spread sheets with confidential company financials. This is much more targeted and so more effective than competitive solutions, which frequently employ an “all or nothing” approach when it comes to removable media.
