Autonomous DLP platform aims to fight insider threats


Security operations teams often struggle with complex tools, legacy pattern-matching DLP, manual policy tuning, and alert fatigue. This can slow investigations, increase overhead, and reduce security effectiveness.
While traditional DLP solutions aim to tackle these challenges, they require constant human intervention, generate high false positive rates, and often miss sophisticated threats that bypass simple pattern recognition. That’s why Nightfall is launching an autonomous Data Loss Prevention platform.
Organizations struggle with too many data loss prevention alerts


A new report finds 78 percent of organizations report being challenged by administering and maintaining existing data loss prevention technology solutions and policies, and 94 percent report using at least two tools and, on average, more than three tools with DLP capabilities, resulting in significant man-hours to administer and maintain multiple solutions.
The study from DLP specialist MIND and Enterprise Strategy Group also shows 91 percent of organizations say it's important to reduce alert noise produced by their current DLP controls due to simple, poor and outdated classification schemes.
Shadow SaaS -- a persistent problem and how to confront it [Q&A]


There's an abundance of apps and SaaS solutions readily available these days to make the lives of employees easier and perform many work-related tasks. And the list keeps growing, with the likes of ChatGPT and Gemini paving the way for more AI-driven virtual assistants.
This is all well and good, unless your organization doesn't sanction the use of the software in question, turning something seemingly innocuous into shadow SaaS -- and a security risk. We spoke to John Stringer, head of product at data loss prevention specialist Next DLP, to learn more.
GDPR -- easy as ABC with DLP


Regulation, compliance, and security always entwine themselves into modern day discussions around the latest innovations and technological advancements. Most recently, the fanfare around AI has quickly given rise to conversations about how it is impacting companies’ ability to comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
GDPR demands that companies stick within data guardrails, yet 100 percent compliance can often seem like a thin tightrope on which companies must balance. Fortunately, various technologies exist that can help with this, such as Data Loss Prevention (DLP).
Kingston unveils hardware-encrypted IronKey D500S USB flash drive


Kingston has announced its latest security-focused drive: the IronKey D500S. This is not just another USB-A flash drive; it’s a marvel in hardware-encrypted data security, designed to provide military-grade protection for classified data in transit.
The D500S packs a punch with its FIPS 140-3 Level 3 (Pending) certification, aligned with the newest guidelines from NIST. These call for upgraded secure microprocessors to amplify protection against potential security threats, especially for government and military use. To further reinforce its robustness, the drive conducts self-tests upon initiation and is equipped with thermal and voltage safeguards that auto-shut when reaching a particular limit.
