Data Security Posture Management (DSPM)

Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) is a security approach that helps organizations identify, assess, and manage sensitive data. Key functions include data discovery, identifying vulnerabilities, and automating risk remediation to save time and reduce manual workflows. Netwrix DSPM provides continuous monitoring across on-premises and cloud environments, helping secure structured and unstructured data wherever it lives.

Web DLP focuses on protecting data from unauthorized access, use, disclosure, modification, or destruction when it is being transmitted over the web. Endpoint DLP focuses on protecting data on endpoints, such as laptops, desktops, and mobile devices.

Netwrix DSPM discovers data across both cloud and on-premises data stores, classifies it, and accurately tags it based on its sensitivity. This enhances existing data loss prevention (DLP) solutions and enables more precise enforcement of DLP policies. The system detects data security risks, such as misconfigurations, over-permissioned access, and anomalous data movements. Automated risk assessments prioritize the most critical threats, while remediation actions are automatically triggered to address issues, such as relocating data to secure locations, adjusting access controls, and flagging suspicious activity. The Netwrix DSPM solution integrates with other tools to ensure a seamless response to emerging risks.

With increasing data breaches, cyber threats, and insider risks, organizations need real-time visibility into their data security posture. According to recent statistics, 45% of breaches are cloud-based. Additionally, with the rise of AI/LLM data exposure risks, ensuring robust data security is essential. Security teams must mitigate these risks by ensuring comprehensive, real-time insights into their data assets, proactively identifying unauthorized access, and automating risk remediation.

Netwrix DSPM is designed to complement and integrate seamlessly with your existing security tools. It enhances data security by providing in-depth visibility into your data, improving risk detection, and enabling automated remediation. For example, it can integrate with data loss prevention (DLP) solutions to enhance policy enforcement by tagging sensitive data more accurately. Netwrix DSPM is flexible and works alongside your current security infrastructure to provide a comprehensive data security solution.

Netwrix DSPM is designed for easy deployment, whether on-premises or virtual. The exact deployment time can vary depending on the complexity of your environment and the volume of data, but typically, the solution can be up and running in a matter of days. Our flexible deployment options and straightforward setup process ensure minimal disruption to your operations, allowing you to quickly start protecting your sensitive data.

Netwrix data security posture management solutions​ play a crucial role in ensuring ongoing compliance with industry regulations such as GDPR, HIPAA, and PCI-DSS. It helps organizations by automatically identifying and classifying sensitive data, preventing its loss, tracking its movement, and ensuring it is stored and handled properly. The solution also streamlines entitlement reviews, access requests, and responses to Data Subject Access Requests (DSARs), ensuring that your data management practices align with regulatory requirements.
