Sophos Data Loss Prevention
Sophos Endpoint Security and Data Protection
Key features
Sophos takes a unique and simple approach to data loss prevention by integrating the scanning for sensitive information into the anti-virus engine on both the endpoint and email appliances. This makes it easier for you to configure, deploy and manage, as well as removing the need for separate DLP solutions to be deployed on both the endpoints and mail gateway.
Our data control enables you to monitor for the transfer of sensitive data, such as Personally Identifiable Information (PII) or company confidential documents. You can reduce the risk of this data being accidentally saved to removable storage device or sent out of the organization, without preventing your employees from going about their daily tasks.
By combining our integrated data control with full disk and SPX email encryption, granular device control and application control, you can easily implement a comprehensive data protection strategy all for the same price as your threat protection.
Integrated data protection
- Reduce the impact on system performance with a single agent that scans for sensitive data as well as malware
- Enable consistent data protection across your endpoints and email gateway preventing the transfer of sensitive data to removable storage devices, applications such as browsers and instant messaging clients, or via email.
Easy to configure and deploy
- Manage data control policies centrally and deploy across your entire estate or to specific groups.
- Implement data protection out of the box with pre-packaged data definitions including bank account details and social security numbers, supplied by and updated by SophosLabs.
- Easily customize your content control lists and keep them consistent across your endpoints and email gateway.
- Automatically allow or block file transfers at the endpoint—or give your users the ability to authorize transfers through desktop prompts. All end user decisions will be audited and can be reviewed in the management console.
