Enhance Data Loss Prevention with File Fingerprinting
Check Point’s DLP enables organizations to monitor and control what type of data may or may not leave the organization, thus preventing sensitive data from getting into the wrong hands.
An Exchange agent also enables users to prevent data from getting to the wrong hands within the organizational boundaries.
In R76, Check Point enhances its DLP solution to scan and fingerprint sensitive file repositories. Subsequently, a user can be alerted when a fingerprinted file is sent outside of the organization – or the file can be blocked from being sent out at all.
