Palisade Systems Offers DLP for the Mobile-Social Enterprise
Social and mobile technologies are infiltrating the enterprise at an alarming rate. But while that may come as no surprise to channel veterans, the impact of those technologies on security is not top of mind for all enterprises. Palisade Systems is looking to protect and prevent data leakage for trend-setting enterprises everywhere. Here’s the lowdown on the latest version of Palisade’s PacketSure Data Security Platform …
If you’re an and IT admin or a VAR working in the enterprise and leveraging the hottest mobile devices and the sexiest social networking tools, you probably know it’s a good idea to have some data center filters. Sometimes the most dangerous mistake isn’t opening an e-mail with a virus, it’s accidentally posting sensitive information outside the company’s network walls.
Palisade Systems‘ PacketSure Data Security Platform 9.0 can provide all the granular filters to ensure the right kind of data stays inside the network at all times. The technology boasts native integration with YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn and Facebook, to alert IT of malware and phishing schemes and automatically detect when sensitive data shouldn’t be leaving the network, even if users try and post it on their best friend’s Facebook wall. Palisade Systems has also included support for HTTPS, so users visiting encrypted sites can’t sneak information out, either.
The security suite offers a software development kit for evolving mobility and social networking needs, in a addition to web and data dashboards that help monitor and tweak traffic in real time. Palisade Systems sees the latest version of its security protection platform as ideal for privacy-focused vertical industries too, such as healthcare and governmental agencies where personal health information or top secret data mustn’t fall into the wrong hands.
As data skyrockets, the channel should consider DLP a golden opportunity for additional sales or wrapping into a package deal. While data loss protection isn’t exactly glamorous, it should be part of any enterprise-focused VAR’s portfolio in some capacity.
