A system that accommodates data sharing across hybrid networks has become essential for efficient collaboration.
Though collaboration makes teamwork faster and more effective, it also exposes your enterprise to significant risks. A single data security breach can cause financial losses, reputational damage, and regulatory penalties. Your enterprise must adopt data loss prevention protocols that protect your sensitive information at every stage of sharing.
The Danger of Email Attachments and Public Drives in Data Sharing
Many teams still rely on email attachments and public cloud drives for file sharing, but these methods are among the leading causes of email data breaches and data compromise. For example, wi-fi hubs and charging stations in airports are convenient but inherently risky to use. Once a file leaves the perimeter of your system, control over the data is lost. Unauthorized users can gain access, attachments can be redirected, and drives can be reconfigured, among many other unwanted intrusions.
This lack of control often leads to data leakage, whether accidental or malicious. A single misdirected email attachment could trigger a compliance violation. Improperly secured cloud folders can result in sensitive files being exposed to the public.
Without a robust data loss prevention (DLP) policy, your enterprise faces a heightened risk of data leakage. And you may not detect the leak until the damage is done.
Encrypted, Access-Controlled Data Sharing
To stop data breaches before they happen, implement secure alternatives. Encrypted, access-controlled sharing provides the best solution by applying data loss prevention controls at every step. This means files are encrypted in transit and at rest, and only authorized users with verified credentials can access them.
Such systems go beyond basic password protection. They integrate DLP features like endpoint data loss prevention, data leakage prevention, and data loss protection across devices, networks, and storage systems. This creates multiple layers of defense against accidental data leakage or deliberate misuse.
A modern data loss prevention system ensures that only the right people have access, that permissions can be revoked instantly, and that usage can be monitored in real time. This kind of data leakage protection will empower your business to collaborate efficiently while keeping intellectual property and sensitive files safe from unauthorized exposure.
