Infosys TechCompass #67: Cybersecurity - Data security
The zero-trust approach has revolutionized data security. The focus has shifted from perimeter protection to data safeguarding, regardless of location. This paradigm shift ensures a robust and comprehensive approach to data security. Advanced data security tools such as AI-ML data classification, data security platforms, insider risk assessment, and data security posture management for cloud platforms help businesses safeguard sensitive data, minimize cyber threats, and stay competitive.
AI-ML data classification categorizes and labels vast data troves, enabling precise control and tailored data protection measures. Data security platforms enhance visibility, centralize data protection mechanisms, and proactively detect and prevent potential threats in real time. Insider risk assessment tools identify and mitigate internal threats, such as data breaches and information leaks in real time. Data security posture management for cloud platforms ensures data security and compliance, allowing organizations to fully leverage cloud computing with integrity and privacy.
Trend 5 — Data security platforms become a necessity to safeguard information
Organizations increasingly prioritize data protection from unauthorized access, use, disclosure, disruption, modification, and destruction. Higher data volumes, more cyberattacks, and stricter data protection regulations drive the adoption of data security platforms. Organizations centralize management, automate workflows, and access threat intelligence through data security platforms. These platforms enable market consolidation through acquisitions, drive innovation with new features, and bolster organizations’ security postures with comprehensive measures.
A leading US beverage and bottler manufacturer required a platform to safeguard intellectual property and sensitive information. Infosys helped it implement a robust data protection platform through tools such as AIP data classification, IRM, O365 DLP, and MCAS. The company remarkably enhanced data security, centralized management, reporting, and day-to-day operational tasks. With enhanced visibility, the company makes informed decisions and responds effectively to potential threats in a robust and secure data environment.
Trend 6 — Growing cloud workloads demand data security posture management
DSPM involves proactive monitoring and evaluation of cloud workloads to uphold best practices and compliance standards. The cloud shift drives demand for customized security solutions. Organizations recognize the need for real-time visibility, potential vulnerability identification, and prompt security gap address. DSPM tools automate these processes and provide insights into cloud workload security, ensuring data integrity, confidentiality, and availability.
DSPM strengthens cloud security, mitigates risks, bolsters compliance with regulations like GDPR, streamlines tasks for efficiency, and improves cloud visibility for swift risk mitigation.
